Consensus

our Verdict

Reviewers love the LG SN10YG soundbar’s deep bass and numerous connectivity options, endorsing it for TV shows, movies, music and gaming. Critics from CNET love its neutral profile, which is great for TV dialogue and all music genres. What Hifi editors adore its dedicated subwoofer, which produces EDM-ready thumping bass, bringing action movies and games to life.

With a top 91.8 dB SPL, this system gets fairly loud, and it fills a big rooms during small gatherings easily. A discrete center speaker and dialogue enhancement feature optimize audio in TV shows, making conversations clearer. The speaker has a range of connectivity options, so it can act as a hub for other devices.

It also has mobile apps for effortless customization and built-in Google Assistant for voice control. Although it supports Dolby Atmos and DTS: X, it has a phantom up-firing and side-firing mechanism, producing mediocre 5.1 surround sound.
