LG's latest soundbars promise more realistic voices

Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Ty pen Brie. And I'm here at the new LG headquarters in New Jersey with the 2022 LG soundbar lineup. Speaker 1: I'm standing here with the S 95 QR soundbar, which is the flagship for 2022, which comes with an intriguing new technology. The key is this upwiring center speaker. The idea is, is making the center speaker appear to come out of the center of your screen. I listened [00:00:30] to a demo of this technology and it did sound better than last year's flagship in that it made the vocals come out of here rather than out of here. Many LG soundbars come without dedicated rear speakers, but these are integrated into the flagship. This is a six way firing speaker with up left and right and forward. Basically it's designed to make it more immersive when you're listening to Atmos soundtracks. This is the S a D Q Y. The step down from the flagship [00:01:00] also has the up firing center speaker, but it doesn't come with the rear speakers. This time around also features all of the other technologies you expect from LG Meridian, churning wifi music, and Bluetooth as well. Speaker 2: There are two more soundbars in the range. The first of these is the S 60 Q. This is a 2.1 channel soundbar, which comes with a wireless subwoofer and virtual Dobe app Moss. Meanwhile, the S 65 Q is a 3.1 channel, which comes with DTS virtual X around pricing and availability on all of the models is [00:01:30] yet to be announced. Speaker 1: One of my favorite features, if you have a soundbar by the same manufacturer as your TV is that you can get a Bluetooth connection between the television and the soundbar itself, but it's usually only stereo. So what this thing is is the LG wow cast. What it does is it transmits Doby, Atmos material from the television to your soundbar over wifi. So you don't have to have a physical connection and you can basically wall Mount it without looking ugly. So what you do is you plug H DM I into this from [00:02:00] your television, and it transmits to your brand new 2022 LG soundbar.
