LG SL8YG

 

The LG SL8YG soundbar is a 2.1 movie audio powerhouse that also delivers strong music performance and Google Assistant voice support.

Powerful audio with adjustable EQ and listening modes. Wireless subwoofer. Hands-free Google Assistant.

Expensive. Visual design isn't particularly alluring.

The LG SL8YG is a powerful 2.1 system that will appeal to bass lovers and anyone seeking rumble in their home theater audio. The built-in Google Assistant support is also a plus. As mentioned, for more money, the powerful LG SL10YG is a truly excellent...

Brilliant service

 

Following problems with a previously ordered soundbar, the staff at your Milton Keynes store sourced alternatives, delivered and installed at a time convenient to me! 10 out of 10 for a very professional service!

Great Mid-priced soundbar

 

Great soundbar for a medium sized room and packs punch from the lows to the mid but somewhat lacks in the higher ranges, which is noticeable in certain films but also not too bad for music, if you like the lower tones. However I kind of wish it also...

Sound good, TV connectivity disappointing.

 

The sound is of impressive quality, across a range of different programmes, and especially so if you are used to inbuilt TV speakers. Connectivity to the TV is less satisfactory. HDMI connection is intermittent and unpredictable, to the point where it...
