LG S75Q\u00a0is a very nice affordable soundbar and subwoofer package, quite powerful and with a little bit of everything when it comes to compatibility, support and features.<\/p>\n

Exterior design<\/h2>\n

LG\u00a0has opted for a\u00a0very conventional design for the sound bar and subwoofer\u00a0that make up this dual body system.\u00a0They are\u00a0perfect prisms in black\u00a0, with lines that are neither very soft nor very regal.<\/p>\n

The set with its measurements<\/p>\n

The soundbar stands out because\u00a0two of its loudspeakers\u00a0, with an upper direction, are visible, forming an aesthetic part of its design (they are two\u00a0circles located on the upper face\u00a0).\u00a0The sound bar is of average size and weight, with figures of\u00a0890 x 65 x 119 mm and 3.79 kg\u00a0respectively.<\/p>\n

In the image that we see below we can see one of the speakers that we are discussing as well as the\u00a0general finishing details\u00a0of both this and the general mesh and the different faces of the device.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, there is the\u00a0subwoofer\u00a0, which follows the same design line, being\u00a0very simple, vertical\u00a0, in black and without frills.\u00a0It measures\u00a0180 x 394 x 290 mm and weighs 5.8 kilos\u00a0.<\/p>\n

LG tells us about the\u00a0design of the LG S75Q as an element of perfect harmony with its televisions\u00a0, designing its products so that they can be combined perfectly, giving more style to the decoration of your home.<\/p>\n

The main bar has a power of 160 W and is accompanied by a subwoofer with 220 W and 85 dB;\u00a0the total is\u00a0380 W and is given in a 3.1.2 channel system\u00a0.\u00a0HiRes support brings the sound system up to the sample rate of the standard, which is\u00a096 kHz at 24 bits\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Remember that to achieve\u00a0full surround sound\u00a0LG has built its soundbar including two of its\u00a0speakers in the vertical direction\u00a0.\u00a0In addition to this, we can customize said envelope a bit by having a\u00a0wireless subwoofer\u00a0, which will allow us to place it at will.\u00a0Of course, we always advise that it be close to the sound bar and, most importantly, in the same line.<\/p>\n

Of course, to help make this possible, the LG S75Q has support for\u00a0DTS:X and Dolby Atmos\u00a0, which are the highest quality standards for both brands.\u00a0This allows you to see content with these standards without loss of quality, of course, any other with lower standards.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

LG S75Q offers super surround sound<\/p>\n

The touch to this audiovisual experience is provided by\u00a0Meridian Horizon technology\u00a0.\u00a0This also helps to gain immersion in what we hear, although it stands out for maintaining the highest clarity and, of course, preventing distortions from reproducing.\u00a0Naturalness and realism\u00a0will be the characteristics that describe your moments in front of the LG S75Q.<\/p>\n

This bar sends content to TV in\u00a0the highest resolution, with HDR 10 support and HDR Dolby Vision without loss\u00a0, which LG defines as\u00a0Passtrough\u00a0.\u00a0Thus, the highest audio quality is still maintained.<\/p>\n

Additionally, we find three audio modes,\u00a0News, Sports and Concert,\u00a0as well as a\u00a0night mode\u00a0that controls that the parameters do not exceed certain values \u200b\u200band that others are not activated.<\/p>\n

We cannot fail to say that this model includes the already famous\u00a0IA of LG AI Sound Pro\u00a0, with which the best sound adaptation is achieved while maintaining volume stability even when the music tracks or other content have different volumes. .<\/p>\n

Finally, when we talked about harmony, we were not referring only to design.\u00a0These bars have been built in such a way that they are capable of\u00a0improving the sound performance of the firm’s televisions\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Connectivity and compatibility<\/h2>\n

The connectivity of the model comes with\u00a0an optical input, a USB port and two HDMI 2.0, one input and one output\u00a0especially recommended for connecting to the TV.\u00a0The latter is because it includes support for eARC and ARC.\u00a0In addition, it presents a\u00a0bluetooth 4.2 BLE\u00a0as an element of wireless connectivity.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The physical connections that are on the back<\/p>\n

With this, in addition to the support for what has already been mentioned, we realize that we also have compatibility for\u00a0VRR and ALLM\u00a0, two essential points today for the living room gamer, since they are elements that facilitate fast movement.\u00a0It’s great that the soundbar offers such compatibility so you don’t have to give it up when gaming.<\/p>\n

We also find that it is configured and controlled with the LG app for bars, which is compatible with the Android and iOS operating systems.\u00a0With it we can do things like activate and deactivate the automatic volume control option or synchronize via AV.<\/p>\n

Sound Bar Accessories<\/h2>\n

LG S75Q is a simple and accessible model of medium power and some extra functions.\u00a0Even so, it includes as an accessory, and very interesting in my opinion, the\u00a0mounting system to place it on the wall\u00a0.\u00a0In this way, the audio output source is better adjusted and, of course, you do not have to have it on top of a piece of furniture, saving space.<\/p>\n

Like any self-respecting bar, and I think it goes without saying, it has a small\u00a0remote control with batteries included\u00a0.<\/p>\n
