LG refreshes its premium soundbar range, with a new top-of-the-line 2022 model: the new LG S95QR. This product is intended for home theater enthusiasts who demand the most from their sound system so they don’t miss a single nuance of dialogue, soundtracks, stage noises or video games.
But it’s also a very complex and advanced device, with a new 9.1.5 configuration, with a very high overall power: 810W. Added to this is the sophisticated electronics needed to make the 15 speakers integrated in this system perform at their best with all types of sound sources: not only movies and TV series, but also music and speech. As always, then, this LG soundbar also interfaces perfectly with LG Smart TVs, thanks to AI Sound Pro technology that, along with AI Room Calibration, allows you to get the best sound in any type of room are positioned TV and soundbar.
Soundbar LG S95QR: technical features
As already mentioned, the LG S95QR is a soundbar 9.1.5. In practice this means that there are a separate subwoofer, dedicated to bass, two physical wireless speakers to be placed behind the listener and the actual soundbar to be placed under the TV.
The “.5” refers to the 5 “up-firing” speakers, i.e. those that project the sound upwards to enhance the 3D effect: two are placed in the rear satellites, the remaining three in the soundbar.
The LG S95QR soundbar is also designed for gamers, thanks to support for VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), the two technologies used by the latest generation consoles to maximize the fluidity of the games in the passage of data from the console to the TV.
There is, of course, no shortage of Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX Enhanced certifications, while on the smart side there is compatibility with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.
LG S95QR soundbar: price and availability
At the moment, LG has only announced the new S95QR soundbar, which will be launched on the market at CES 2022, which will be held in Las Vegas from January 5 to 8, 2022, in which LG will participate with a mixed stand that is a little bit physical and a little bit virtual.
The list price of this new soundbar is not yet known, but it is certain that it will be well above 1,000 euros given that the current top-of-the-line 2021 LG SP11RA model with 7.1.4 channels for 770 watts of total power was launched at a price of 1,499 euros and, even today, can not be found for less than a thousand euros.
