LG Eclair SE6S 3.0 ch All-in-One Design Sound Bar with Dolby Atmos

Production quality is great, integration with my TV and the app are great. It's not amazing theater-like sound quality (but they have higher-end models with subs, which I also own and love) so I wouldn't personally use it for my living room or primary area of watching, but I use it in my bedroom and it's perfect for that

This sound bar is far superior to the speakers on my LG LED TV. Now, for the super high-end audio afficionado, this isn't going to do it. But if you are looking for a solid soundbar that has clear sound without distortion and feels more rich and voluminous than simple TV speakers - this should suit you fine.

One unit added via Bluetooth to my LG living room TV gives awesome sound. I have it plugged into the back of the TV, but that doesn't work.

The LG Eclair SE6S Sound Bar, with its sleek all-in-one design and promising Dolby Atmos technology, seemed like the perfect addition to my home entertainment setup. While it does serve its primary purpose, I must admit that the overall sound quality and occasional connectivity issues leave much to be desired, considering it bears the LG brand and boasts Dolby Atmos capabilities. Let's start with the positives. The soundbar's compact and minimalistic design adds a touch of elegance to my TV area, seamlessly blending with the decor. The setup process was relatively straightforward, and the inclusion of Dolby Atmos technology raised expectations for an immersive audio experience. However, upon using the soundbar, I was somewhat underwhelmed by its sound performance. While it does enhance the audio compared to built-in TV speakers, the improvement is not as significant as one would expect from an LG sound product with Dolby Atmos. The audio lacks the depth and richness that I was hoping to experience, particularly when it comes to bass response. Despite tinkering with the sound settings, I could not achieve the immersive audio quality I had anticipated. Another concern I encountered is the intermittent connectivity issue through ARC (Audio Return Channel). Approximately once a week, the soundbar fails to connect through ARC, leaving me with no sound output from the TV. To resolve this, I have to unplug the HDMI cable and plug it back in, which can be inconvenient and disrupts the seamless viewing experience. On a positive note, the soundbar does come with a range of connectivity options, including Bluetooth, which allows me to stream music from my devices wirelessly. The remote control is also straightforward to use, with essential functions easily accessible. In conclusion, the LG Eclair SE6S Sound Bar does fulfill its primary function of providing audio enhancement over built-in TV speakers. However, its sound quality, despite the Dolby Atmos feature, falls short of the expectations one would have from an LG product. The occasional ARC connectivity issue is an added inconvenience that disrupts the overall user experience. While the design and additional features are appealing, I cannot help but feel somewhat disappointed with the soundbar's overall performance. If you prioritize superior sound quality and seamless connectivity, I would recommend exploring other soundbar options on the market before settling for this one.

Gave this one an honest try since I have an LG TV and there are some exclusive features when you pair the two, but the sound quality is atrocious; this is saying a lot considering that this costs about as much as a SONOS beam. I would consider myself to be relatively discerning if it comes to audio, but wasn’t a very noticeable upgrade over my G2’s built-in speakers. The final straw for me is that the speaker would shout “CONNECTED” at 5-15 minute intervals while watching TV or playing games and would not stop no matter how many times I’ve factory reset it. Luckily this behavior started happening in the return window. I ended up fishing an old AV receiver out of my closet and hooking up some bookshelf speakers. Much better.

Great product! Love the sound and works well with our LG TV

Works great!

This product is used in my living room, and sounds great. Would like to try other components.

Me gusta la barra, tiene muy buen sonido y sobretodo muy claro. Si buscas mucho volumen esta no es la barra que buscas, es perfecta para un lugar pequeño. Como dato adicional el HDMI para conectar una consola es 2.0 y no ofrece 120 hz a 4k.

Great product. Simple to set up. No amazing sound but better than the tv alone.

Conforme à la description, très bon état.

Ca va très bien avec le TV LG QNED AI deja au Top par contre puissance musicale pas assez de bass , vraiment moyen … Pour le prix de 270 on pourrait prendre un Boss ou JBL … Apres tout globalement la barre gère bien l’ensemble mais son n’est pas un home cinema loin de la …

To be clear this is a review of the LG USE6S soundbar; many of the reviews listed by Amazon against this item are for a range of other soundbars and I found it hard to get to the meaningful information about this particular soundbar. I read the Which? review of the USE6S and it was far from complimentary; very critical of sound quality and its handling of Dolby Atmos inputs and suggesting there were better value items for the money. I don’t know how much it cost at the time they did their review but suspect it was quite a bit more than the £200 or so it’s currently retailing for. I wanted a fairly compact way of improving the sound from my LG OLED TV (model OLED55C56LB) without having satellite speakers and a sub and this soundbar looked the best way of getting good connectivity with my LG TV. Even without peripheral speakers, it’s still quite a large black box to sit in front of your TV (800mm long x 63mm high x 131 mm wide) but when connected to my TV’s eARC input and powered up, it linked to the TV without any input from me and set up the WoWCast feature (uses the TV speaker together with the soundbar) automatically. As even the Which? review commented, it does improve the sound from the TV (when using the AI Pro sound setting) though the extent of the improvement varies from OK with Sky channels to noticeably better on non-4K Netflix but best on HDR / Dolby Atmos on Apple TV. It’s also good when used to connect to music services such as Spotify and Apple Music via my phone. LG’s soundbar app enables to you to tweak settings easily and do a form of assessment of the acoustics of your room. Amazon won’t allow me to put a direct link here but a search of LG’s UK website for USE6S will give you more info. Overall, if you want powerful sound and a better surround sound experience you probably need to look at a more sophisticated soundbar with peripheral speakers but if you want to have better sound from a one box solution then this is worth considering at the current price. UPDATE - If you're connecting to a LG TV, try disabling the WoWCast feature (use soundbar only) and switch sound profile to Bass Blast. I've found it gives a richer sound than with WoWCast and AI Pro sound
