About this deal

Bluetooth streaming is also available which means you can stream music from any mobile device like smartphone or tablet to your soundbar. The process could not be easier as you connect your device and streaming starts. We were a bit disappointed to see that Bluetooth v4.0 is still used in this one but at least in our tests we didn’t face any streaming or connection problems. Output Power (THD 10%) for the main drivers is rated at 90W (45W+45W) x 2 for a total of 180 watts while the subwoofer comes at 220 watts for a grand total of 400 watts of power which is not bad at all for such a small looking soundbar. The power rating is another aspect of the soundbar where it remained the same as last year. We guess that not much have changed in terms of internal audio components and as the included drivers are also the same the audio output is similar also. On the low end things were good enough, all things considered, with the included subwoofer doing a good job as providing the extra bass power needed. When the alien pegs hit the destroyer and explode cutting the ship in half we were hit with a powerful wave that really shook us. Every cannon fire, explosion and low end effect was rendered with might and enough power necessary to make them feel more convincing. Yes, the sub is not the powerhouse that will hit you in the chest and make you hold your breath but it still adds enough to the whole performance. There’s also a feature here called AI Sound Pro that automatically adjusts the sound levels to the type of content that you’re watching. Another, rather intriguing feature that we get is support for wireless rear speakers. Being a 2.1 channels soundbar, surround performance of the SN5Y is very limited as we will analyze a bit later in this review so having the ability to add extra surround speakers gives this unit amazing flexibility. This optional kit (SPK8-S) includes a receiver unit that can connecting wirelessly to the SN5Y and with simply pressing the sound tuning button for 3 seconds you can enable or disable the surround activity. It’s as simple as that.

Wireless capabilities of the soundbar are limited to the inclusion of Bluetooth 4.0 as the unit is missing WiFi. We were hoping to get at least an updated Bluetooth but the SN5Y still uses the old v4.0. Control Options Each instrument was clearly audible, while also managing to not seem too sibilant and fatiguing over time. It was just really enjoyable to listen to. But if I’m to be honest, the average person probably won’t really care about that and likely wouldn’t even notice.

When the alien ship was launching its explosive pegs on the human battleship you could feel them travel across the front space with a convincing trajectory. Also during the last scene were the USS Missouri is throwing all its ordnance to the Alien mothership the SN5Y throwed everything at us and really created an impressive atmosphere at the front. On the low end the subwoofer did a good job at providing the necessary weight while it felt like it could keep the pace even with hectic rhythms and tunes. In our opinion the mid-range was the weak part of the unit here but this is mostly for those looking at the details and for a casual user the experience is more than satisfactory. Vocals were distinct and had good emotion in them without overacting of being extremely exciting. Then if you wanted to incorporate actual surround sound speakers separately, the SN5Y gives you the ability to do so. The speakers aren’t in the box though which is something to be aware of. This addition to the feature list – seen for the first time in 2020 – is essentially auto-calibration tech, meaning compatible soundbars will analyse your room and adjust their sound to suit the space available.

The LG S95QR is the best LG soundbar we've tested. It's a premium 9.1.5 setup with many features, and its versatile performance makes it suitable for listening to everything from music to movies to TV shows. It has a unique design—in addition to a more traditional front-firing center channel, and there's also an up-firing center channel to improve the localization of voices in the mix. As a result, it's really easy to follow along with the conversations in your favorite content, and you get a slightly more life-like feel. It performs admirably during movies too. The treble and higher end sounds were accurate, and the bass hit hard and loud. Sidenote, if you’re planning to use a receiver, and that receiver is already connected to your TV through ARC via HDMI, then connect the soundbar to an HDMI input on the receiver. Both Samsung and LG’s high-end soundbars offer wireless connectivity, allowing the device to be connected to speakers across different rooms for a multi-room speaker system.

Speaker Systems: Get a home stereo system that brings the party to you. With powerful sound and all the features you want, like Bluetooth control, Party Lights, Karaoke Creator, Voice Filters, DJ Effects, DJ Sharing, Party Accelerator and Bass Blast+, our bookshelf speakers are the ultimate party speaker – whether you're a party for one or hosting 100. But it isn't all flagship models. LG's new entry-level TV speakers are typified by a more compact, all-in-one design that includes HDMI connectivity plus a softer, more home-decor friendly appearance. The SP2, for example, is billed as a 2.1-channel, 100W lifestyle soundbar with onboard subwoofers. It offers HDMI connectivity as well as Bluetooth,and comes in a choice of charcoal or grey. The build quality of the device is solid (quite literally) with the bar itself feeling somewhat on the lighter side. The LG SN5Y unfortunately does not support any voice control platform so if this your thing you will have to look either on a higher tier model or a different brand altogether.Keep in mind though, the sub should be kept within 15 feet of the soundbar to maintain the best connection and not cut out when playing. Here’s the LG SN5Y soundbar review, a comprehensive and helpful guide that’ll help you decide if this is the right soundbar for you! The LG SN5Y continues to be an excellent low cost offering that is ideal for casual users looking for a system that will upgrade their TVs audio without spending too much money or having to deal with complex settings and features. Either you love watching movies, playing games or listening to music this soundbar will cover you for sure. The AI sound pro feature that automatically optimizes your content depending on what you watch I actually found to work really well. It did tend to slightly emphasize voices in a few rare instances, but it worked just fine other than that.
