World-first, triple up-firing soundbar for a deeper dimension in sound
Matched to its three front channels of sound (left, centre, right), the LG S80QR has three upwards-firing channels. These give an added dimension to the sound, reflecting it from the ceiling for a far more immersive, cinematic soundstage.
Rear speakers included for the full surround sound effect
For an even more enveloping experience, the LG S80QR comes with rear speakers as standard. These sync with the soundbar to give you the true sensation of cinema sound. The wireless speakers use a dedicated receiver, meaning there’s no need for wires running from the front to the back of your room.
Dolby Atmos and DTS:X for immersive sound
There’s no better way to make use of the up-firing channels of sound than with Dolby Atmos or DTS:X encoded movies or games. Dolby Atmos and DTS:X recreate the 3D-effect of sound from above. With this LG soundbar reflecting sound from the ceiling, you experience the effect of an overhead spacecraft, tropical thunderstorm or celestial soundtrack.
Certified for IMAX Enhanced
IMAX Enhanced brings home the sound and picture immersion you experience from IMAX cinemas. Available on selected Blu-ray discs and now on streaming platforms, such as Disney+, IMAX Enhanced is a guarantee of extended picture and sound. When used with a compatible TV, you see an expanded aspect ratio, delivering up to 26% more picture with selected scenes. In the case of this soundbar, IMAX Enhanced works with partner DTS to reproduce IMAX’s signature sound. Expect a deeper bass and more dynamic sound for edge-of-seat sonic thrills.
Powerful bass
Making sure the S80QR has the thunder to match the sonic immersion, the supplied subwoofer is fitted with a larger bass cone. The 8-inch cone punches hard, letting you feel the true impact of your favourite action movies, games and music. The wireless connection means that it can be placed anywhere in the room, regardless of how close it is to the soundbar (mains power required).
