    I was happy until about 6 weeks ago when the sound began to lag behind the lips. After 2 calls to LG and all efforts to remedy exhausted, I have brought it in to an electronics repair shop. Since it was over a year old, and past LG's warranty, I had no other recourse. The shop has still not been able to diagnose and remedy after 2 weeks. I'm very disappointed that LG's best soundbar at the time, is experiencing this issue in less than 2 years.

    Everything seemed good until actually listening to it. Any sound setting other than Movie sounds awful, very tinny, and hollow. The subwoofer constantly cuts out and makes listening to anything sounds without depth. I wish there was an option to plug the woofer into the soundbar and stop the foolish Bluetooth connection. I've had it for 2 years and returned it twice for repair. I love LG products but this one is a far cry from the other things they make.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
