5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased for the money! (LG S40TR)
I love home audio, car audio etc. but I didn't want to break the bank, so this setup is perfect for our living room. Its not for everyone though, hope this review will help you out.During movies this setup is REALLY immersive. (Keep reading for details) MAKE SURE you change the audio setting to "Cinema" on the remote! I leave it on cinema all the time, even just watching TV or YouTube, unless I'm listening to music then I switch to the music mode.On our TV we were able to change the TV settings to allow the TV remote to adjust the volume of the LG system, and it also turns the TV off and ALL the speakers off with one button! Which is really convenient. I only use the LG remote to change the audio profile when switching from cinema to music.Its a wireless system, so of course that means Bluetooth enabled if you want to play music or maybe an audio book from your phone / tablet. Maybe you are cooking in the kitchen and have an open home layout you can watch the media on your phone and use the speaker system for the audio via Bluetooth. Use the sound bar or the LG remote to activate Bluetooth and just connect your device.This is NOT a system that requires a separate audio receiver with AM/FM. If you need to connect a vinyl player, and already have extra speakers you want to add in, then this is not the system for you. This system works great with smart TVs / projectors / game consoles / streaming devices etc.I've had no connection issues or dropped signals whatsoever and its been in use for a few months now, I'm really satisfied with the wireless setup. Even with multiple devices in my house, Xbox, PS5, PC, laptop, cell phones, tablets, wireless security cameras, even the refrigerator uses WIFI and we've had zero connection issues with this system.The subwoofer sounds great while playing music and movies, I can hear it thump from upstairs, it will fill your room with really loud sound, but it probably wont bother the neighbors. If you have the volume up a good amount you wont be able to talk with an "inside voice" to someone across the room very easily to give you an idea of how loud and powerful this setup is. Its not underwhelming in any stretch of the imagination, unless you are trying to fill a dance club with sound. With that being said this system would function very well for playing music during a reasonable sized house party with like 20 or so guests give or take.It works perfectly for my significant other and I, as we don't host often at all and its usually just us two watching the TV. We set the two satellite speakers on either side of the couch facing directly at the TV, and the surround effect sounds awesome while watching a movie or TV series. That is the optimal seating position, being directly between the left and right speakers on either side of you. If you have another couch that isn't directly facing the TV, the surround sound aspect may not sound as convincing from that position. If you always have a bunch of people in the room in different seating positions trying to watch a movie you probably need a 5.1 or 7.1 system instead.The subwoofer is powered / active so you will need to place it near an outlet, or run an extension cord, though I wouldn't want a passive subwoofer that doesn't require power as my main home theater sub. The two satellite speakers are wired together via speaker wire (L&R) and one power cord, but then they wirelessly connect to the subwoofer and sound bar. Directions are clear and easy to read with pictures and diagrams so you shouldn't have any issues. I think it's awesome having a clean looking setup without having to run speaker wire across the floor, or up the wall. Just the L&R speaker wire that is hiding behind the couch. Plenty of slack on the speaker wire about 10-20 feet if I had to guess.Once the speakers are set up and connected, you need some audio. First you need to plug an HDMI cable into the sound bar’s HDMI ARC port, then into the HDMI ARC port on your TV. That will allow audio / video to travel in BOTH directions from your TV and the sound system. Standard HDMI ports only allow audio / video to travel in one direction. If your TV is older and doesn't have an HDMI ARC port, I'm fairly certain you can use an optical cable instead, but I'm not positive as its been over 2 months since I set everything up.***You may have to change the audio settings on your TV to activate the ARC setting from your TV***If you have a game console / laptop / streaming device / DVD or Blu-ray player etc., you would then run a separate HDMI cord from said device into the sound bar's standard HDMI port. Then you should be good to go.I would highly recommend searching up a "surround sound test" video on YouTube at this point to make sure you have the speakers arranged correctly.If you are using a projector with Bluetooth capability, you can wirelessly connect the projector to the sound bar for your audio. If your projector does not have Bluetooth, you can use an Bolo Firestick with Bluetooth capability. You would just connect the Firestick to the projector, and then use the Bluetooth on the Firestick to connect to the sound bar for your audio. Note older Firesticks do not have Bluetooth. If your video is on a USB flash drive or some other USB drive, you should be able to connect the drive to your projector and then run an HDMI cord into one of the HDMI ports on the sound bar, though I have not tested this myself. In theory you should also be able to use a USB Bluetooth transmitter / receiver plugged into your projector to wirelessly connect to the sound bar for audio instead.From the optimal seating position, as explained above, the sound is awesome! You can hear a vehicle in a movie passing from left to right in real time, or gunshots that sound like they are ricocheting around you! Its really cool, in my opinion better than a movie theater because you get to sit in the perfect position at home and its more of an intimate experience if that makes sense.Another example is from "House of the Dragon" TV series (no spoilers), while the new dragon riders were down in the dragons pit, it was all quiet and eerie, then some small rocks fall down in the distance (you don't even see them fall on screen) and we had to look around our room for a second, as we thought something really fell down in real life! Such a cool experience! If you were watching that on regular TV speakers you wouldn't even notice those little details, with this setup it sounded like the rocks fell down right next to you. I wouldn't want to watch a movie without this type of experience moving forward because you are really missing out on a big part of the emersion.
5.0 out of 5 stars LG Surround Sound System (LG S40TR): A Budget-Friendly Home Theater Win!
I recently picked up the LG Surround Sound System (LG S40TR), and despite some mixed reviews, I’m really happy with it! Let’s clear a few things up: if you’re expecting everything to be totally wireless via Bluetooth, that’s not the case. But once you get past that, it’s a great setup.Here’s the deal: the soundbar connects to your TV with an HDMI or optical audio cable and needs to be plugged into power. The subwoofer is Bluetooth to the soundbar, but it still requires its own power source. The two rear speakers? One plugs into power, and a speaker wire connects the two. We placed ours behind the couch to keep the wire hidden—no ceiling wire here!—and it doesn’t affect the sound at all. In fact, it sounds fantastic!Some people weren’t thrilled with the remote, but honestly, I find the app way more convenient for controlling everything. Download it, and you’ll see what I mean—super easy!All in all, the setup process was smooth, the sound quality is chef’s kiss, and for the price, it’s a solid home theater system. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to upgrade on a budget!
4.0 out of 5 stars Great sound quality, but BIG BIG issue with 5GHz band wifi interfernce
The BIG problem with this sound bar is the interference with my 5GHz wifi band. It absolutely debilitates the wifi signal as the sound bar uses the same frequency as the 5GHz band. For me, it completely masked my 5GHz signal, so it didn't even show up as an option when trying to connect with my devices. I moved the netgear nighthawk x6 r8000 router further away from the sound bar, and it was still interfering. I was able to connect to my 5GHz band, but internet was very laggy, and when I ran the internet speed test, I was getting 85MB/s. When I unplugged the sound bar and ran the speed test, i was getting 500+MB/s. I was hoping it was just the wireless subwoofer that was causing the issue, but I unplugged the subwoofer and only ran the sound bar, and I still had interference. In conclusion, the sound bar interferes with the 5GHz band on your wifi. 2.4GHz is fine and works okay.Excluding the wifi issue, the sound quality is amazing, and the value for the money is great. Installation was a bit tricky as it was being installed to a Samsung TV, so I had to use the optical cable. The TV was not picking up the sound bar via HDMI.
5.0 out of 5 stars What a Difference
Bought this to improve sound from an LG TV. Sounds really good from a relatively inexpensive sound bar. Setup and connection to the LG TV was pretty easy.
1.0 out of 5 stars Musician's Opinion: Very poor sound quality; not worth the money or headache - look elsewhere
I am a musician who values sound quality and was hoping the sound bar would provide a rich bass and a quality mix in TV and movie viewing and music listening over my bluetooth speakers. This product was a SEVERE DISAPPOINTMENT. The soundbar itself is very light weight for its size, and so is its sound. The treble and mid ranges are very tinny (they sound compressed, like they are missing information and being amplified by a megaphone). It is comparable to a very loud $50 bluetooth speaker - this is not a hyperbole. The surround sound speakers are also connected by a very ugly wire you have to run across your room and they sound like $20 speakers... The app also offers very few features that are helpful and the mix adjustments do not help. It also does not play audio quietly well, there are large jumps in volume adjustment that cannot be changed.Overall a very mediocre setup that is not going to be better than your TV speakers. As someone who is operating on a budget, I was hoping this would be a cost effective purchase, but even if you dont think you could tell the difference in speaker quality, I assure you that you can and strongly suggest that you consider other products in a similar price range made by other companies. I purchased a Polk soundbar for a little bit more and am very satisfied.
5.0 out of 5 stars Sounds awesome!

Does the job
Researched for months and bought this. Does what it promises. The sound fills the room but feels a bit boomy (using Bluetooth connection). The Bluetooth connection drops every 30 mins. Not sure if it's a soundbar issue or my streaming device. I'll be using HDMI ARC so this won't be an issue for me.All in all, a decent upgrade over inbuilt TV speakers, for its price, but in no way audiophile grade. This one is suitable if you are a tenant with a small hall and want something small that's transport-friendly.If you're after quality sound, go for a proper 5.1 home theater because no matter which soundbar you buy, you'll always be missing out on a good movie experience if you don't have rear surround speakers.Also, always prefer wired inputs over wireless. Bluetooth does not have the bandwidth to carry high res sound.
L g sound bar
Very easy to install and sounds epic
Es muy buena opción calidad precio
Su bajos son suficientemente potentes..Estoy satisfecho
Práctica y estética
Fácil de instalar, discreta y elegante.El sonido es algo que aun no logro descifrar, separa muy bien los sonidos y tiene un buen rango, el subbuffer es decente y el volumen o potencia están bien pero hay situaciones en donde no importa cuanto le subas, no se nota gran diferencia.Me gusta que tenga control remoto.Creo que es ideal para una habitación mediana.
