Press Release
LG Electronics USA announced the
newest LG sound bar designed to deliver an exceptional home entertainment experience
as well as a new level of spatial and stylistic integration with LG’s premium TVs. The
LG GX sound bar boasts 3.1 channels with advanced features and sophisticated
aesthetics designed to complement the award-winning LG GX Gallery series OLED
TVs.
Available in the United States this month, the LG GX sound bar is the perfect
companion to LG’s artistically-inspired Gallery OLED TVs. To offer maximum
flexibility, the sound bar can be mounted either flush on the wall directly under the TV
or supported using the included sturdy steel stand. Measuring about 6 inches high by 57
inches wide by 1-1/4 inches deep, the LG GX sound bar is identical in width and finish
to the 65-inch LG GX Gallery series OLED TV. At the core of LG’s gallery design is
the philosophy of a complete TV system that can fit harmoniously within a given space
– a concept that LG’s designers refer to as “adding spatial value.”
LG GX sound bar delivers superior immersive theater sound thanks to Dolby Atmos
and DTX:S for remarkable three-dimensional audio. The speaker supports Dolby Vision
and 4K pass-through, enabling the best possible picture and sound quality for truly
cinematic home viewing. The included subwoofer connects wirelessly to the sound bar
to deliver low-frequency bass from anywhere in the room and adding LG’s wireless rear
speaker kit (model SPK8, sold separately) delivers even more power and a greater sense
of immersion.
The sound bar delivers upgraded user convenience and easy connectivity options
including Bluetooth and eARC (enhanced audio return channel). With its higher
bandwidth, eARC provides the full richness of high-resolution audio formats such as
Dolby True HD and DTS Master Audio, while Bluetooth facilitates effortless streaming
from a smartphone or tablet.
What’s more, the LG GX sound bar is Hi-Res Audio certified, offering lossless
playback at 24bit/96kHz with greater vibrancy and nuance. The speaker produces
detailed, natural sound when playing high-resolution audio files or when up-converting
conventional audio formats. The built-in LG AI Sound Pro feature analyzes and
automatically applies the best sound settings regardless of the content, ensuring
maximum listening enjoyment every time.
The new LG GX sound bar will roll out in the U.S. starting the week of July 20 at a
suggested price of $1,299. Check local retailers for price and exact date of availability.
