    Overview

    When it comes to your favourite TV shows and movies, it is important to have amazing sound to match, which is exactly where this LG High Res Soundbar comes in. Dolby Atmos serves to truly immerse you in sound from all directions, for a spectacularly enriched experience. Adaptive Sound Control analyses what’s playing and adjusts the sound setting to enhance your audio experience.

    Hi-Res Audio works to enhance the sound quality of your music, TV shows and movies by presenting high-quality sound through your soundbar. Every gasp, bass drop and action scene can be heard with wondrous clarity. And with Google Assistant compatibility built right in, you can cast your music straight to your soundbar using a Google Assistant compatible device.
    Dolby Atmos

    Dolby Atmos technology creates a 360° audio field above and around you. Conventional home theatres shoot audio directly at you and that creates a two-dimensional sound experience. With Dolby Atmos, sound is multidimensional; it moves around you, fills the space around you, and truly immerses you in the scene.

    Hi-Res Audio

    This unit is a Hi-Res Audio device, which allows it to play a variety of 24-bit digital audio formats. This simply means you can take full advantage of high-quality audio sources like FLAC audio files.

    Adaptive Sound Control

    Whether you’re watching sports, the news or listening to music, this LG Soundbar automatically detects what’s playing and then adapts the audio output to highlight what’s important. In reality, this means that if you’re watching dialogue-heavy content, you’ll hear speech clearer and if you’re listening to music the focus will be on bass.

    Bluetooth Connectivity

    Wires are out, wireless is in. The simple Bluetooth connectivity in this unit makes it easy to enjoy your favourite music wirelessly.

    Does this sound bar support 4k/hdr passthrough via ARC? For example, Xbox one x to sound bar to LG C7 65in TV. Would this work with watching 4k/HDR content? PhilipC · 2018-09-01
