We had been waiting for the Korean manufacturer to present its LG sound bars for 2022. In December of last year, the firm gave the first brushstrokes of its flagship model and now we know all the details of its most anticipated sound solutions.
Now, LG has officially presented its new sound bars for 2022, with the LG DS95QR as the first exponent. A product that boasts 9.1.5 channels and 810 W of power to offer a scandalous acoustic landscape.
This first model stands out for having five vertical firing speakers to make the most of its Dolby Atmos support and achieve surround sound that will not disappoint you at all.
These are the LG sound bars of 2022
LG is very committed to the environment and wants to reduce its carbon footprint. For this reason, all new sound bar models come in 100% cardboard packaging and use recycled plastic resin for the outer shell. In addition, the sound bar models are made from a new fiber composite material. The light weight of this material helps reduce carbon emissions during shipping and transportation. And thanks to their low power consumption, LG soundbars also save energy during use.
Like the LG DS95QR soundbar, DS90QY and DS80QY models feature a center speaker additional radiating upwards for better spatial reproduction of speech components.
On the other hand, it should be noted that all the models presented boast AI Sound Pro, a new technology capable of recognizing and optimizing playback based on the musical genre. What’s more, LG DS95QR, DS90QY and DS80QY sound bars can also use the AI Sound Pro feature of the Alpha processor built into the TVs.
LG to make audio content sound even clearer and more realistic.
We cannot forget its calibration system through AI so that the sound adjusts to the acoustics and dimensions of the room where it is installed. It should be noted that the company wants to offer surround sound, so all the sound bars presented offer support for Dolby Atmos and DTS: X. What’s more, all models except the LG DS75Q will offer IMAX Enhanced support with Horizon technology. Evidently, Meridian has taken it upon themselves to tune these bars.
As if that wasn’t enough, LG DS95QR, DS90QY and DS80QY soundbars can be connected to a compatible console or PC to squeeze out their VRR and ALLM support via HDMI 2.1. Its support for Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa is the icing on the cake of a range of products that wants to make a difference. Let’s see a summary of the models presented.

LG WOWCAST: The perfect complement
Connected to a TV with an ARC or eARC port, the LG WOWCAST (WTP3) creates a wireless HDMI connection between a compatible LG soundbar and the TV it’s connected to. This gives users the greatest possible flexibility when setting up their LG soundbar without having to compromise on sound quality.
The device can transmit lossless and uncompressed sound up to 7.1.4 channels and Dolby Atmos and is compatible with the new LG DS95QR, DS90QY and DS80QY soundbars.
