LG has started rolling out the 2023 soundbar line-up in India and it has some pretty chic new models to elevate the home entertainment experience for you.
There are LG’s latest high-end soundbars- S95QR, S90QY, SC9S and S75Q take the at-home cinema experience a notch higher. As per the brand, these speakers provide powerful and precise multi-channel audio that leverages the world’s first centre up-firing speaker to create a realistic soundstage. The centre up-firing speaker is meant for dialogue clarity and positions sound more accurately in space to make movies and other content feel more immersive.
The flagship model of the 2023 lineup, the S95QR offers an 810W output, 9.1.5 channels and centre up-firing speakers. LG’s top-of-the-line soundbar features a total of five up-firing channels – three on the soundbar itself, and two in the wireless rear speakers – to create an expansive, dynamic soundscape that surrounds you and draws you deeper into the onscreen action and to make Meridian, Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX enhanced content even more immersive.
This year, the premium S95QR also features upgraded wireless rear speakers sporting six channels compared to the four of its predecessors. With triple up-firing drivers complementing four front/side drivers, S95QR’s rear speakers distribute sound evenly across a 135-degree angle. This gives you more flexibility when it comes to speaker placement and is especially helpful for those with limited space.
Meanwhile, Music Mode featuring Meridian Audio’s Horizon technology enables the 2023 soundbars to up-mix two-channel audio to 9.1.5 channels for more realistic acoustic surround sound.
And for gamers, there is 4K/120Hz pass-through in addition to variable refresh rate (VRR) and auto low latency mode (ALLM), which help make console gaming more immersive by syncing the sound with the gameplay on screen.
The WOW Orchestra feature of the soundbar provides a rich surround effect by using TV speakers. It also comes with an improved volume UI design for external audio devices connection. The 2023 soundbars are also equipped with AI Room Calibration which adjusts low-frequency performance to the room’s dimensions for optimized sound delivery. Its frequency band is expanded from 200Hz to 400Hz to improve the balance and loudness of the voice. The price is available on request.
