LG SJ7

The LG SJ7 breaks the traditional long soundbar into a stereo pair and adds a modestly sized subwoofer, with solid audio quality you can adjust to your taste.

Powerful audio performance with strong bass response and solid clarity. Versatile connectivity. Right speaker is portable.

Default audio settings can sound overly bass-boosted. 2.1 system is not, visually, what most people consider a soundbar.

For $499, the LG SJ7 is a versatile soundbar with a solid audio experience that is equally at home playing music and film audio. If what you're after is a legitimate surround sound setup, or one that can mimic one—this isn't it. Despite the bells and...

LG Sound Bar Flex SJ7 Review

LG SJ7 is a versatile wire-free audio system that functions as sound bar, surround system, portable speaker. Supports Bluetooth 4.0, optical out, HDMI 1.4.

The LG SJ7 is a versatile audio system for the home. I can move the second unit to create a wider stereo sound or immersive surround by placing at the rear, or as a separate portable speaker in another room. Take note though that for wired connection...

LG Sound Bar Flex SJ7 2.1-Channel Soundbar Reviewed

LG's new Sound Bar Flex SJ7 ($399.99) is a three-piece surround sound system that includes two speaker units and a wireless subwoofer. The two speakers can be configured either in a left/right configuration up front or as a soundbar/rear-speaker combo....

The SJ7 can be set up in a variety of ways, and its aesthetics are terrific ; At $399.99, the LG system sounds better than some systems costing three times as much ; Connectivity was fast and automatic ... really fast and automatic

HDMI video pass-through is nice at this price point, but the HDMI ports are 1.4, not 2.0a, so you can't pass full 4K/60p and HDR ; This system lacks the 360-degree immersion of other, more costly systems ; The subwoofer doesn't really start to impress...

Did the LG Sound Bar Flex SJ7 make me smile? Yes! It won't fill a large room, and it won't sound like movie effects are coming from all around you. However, for small to mid-sized rooms, watching movies will be very enjoyable, and this system will look...

LG SJ7 review

(Rating Hidden)

The LG SJ7 is somewhat of a shape-shifter. At one point a sound bar, next a pair of speakers, then simply a battery-powered Bluetooth speaker. This innovative sound bar offers a complete sound system solution. But is it good enough to be the only...

Mostly pleased.

I love this unit, however, I was disappointed when I realised that the system doesn't possess Wi-Fi connectivity [as advertised both my Very and LG]; this does not connect to the internet.

So so

I bought this a week ago on the strength of many positive reviews. Personally I found it bass heavy even on it's minimum bass setting, also the clarity of speech seemed to be lacking. This meant turning the volume up, thus turning the bass up and me...
