THE PROBLEM
The soundbar and wireless subwoofer produces terrific sound but the rear speakers were to be the icing on the new cake. Setup was easy and I certainly recommend downloading the LG WiFi app. But there was no sound coming out the rear speakers even when at full rear volume. I read and re-read the limited documentation and eventually discovered the cause.
The rear speaker controller uses 5Ghz to communicate with the soundbar. If you, like me have a dual-band 2.4Ghz / 5Ghz WiFi router and are using the 5Ghz channel, the rear speakers will simply not function properly. I also had a WiFi Range Extender for one side of the house - also using dual 2.4/5Ghz.
THE SOLUTION
Frankly 5Ghz is not that valuable to me. It offers faster data rates, but over a shorter distance. We operate very happily in a 2.4Ghz environment so the solution was simple: turn off the internal 5Ghz radio in BOTH the Router and the WiFi Extender.
The moment I had done this, the rear speakers came alive and they are magnificent.
Hopefully my journey with this will help someone. The sound system in my opinion is worth it! :-)
To avoid any of your wireless gear to cut out, try and place it away from any internet modem/wireless router.
I spent most of the weekend watching different movies, and shows. Some of Netfix movies do pass Dolby Atmos, and honestly it sounded great. Some tracks play better than others. Dark sounds amazing on Netflix because of the Atmos, as well as Wind River plays just as great as a 5.1 set up. I have Game of Thrones on Blu-ray, which all play dolby atmos which sounded beautiful. For me the reference sound would be Mad Max: Fury Road, and The Matrix in 4K. Mad Max, you heard all the great music as well as every gun shot, and crash. The Matrix you heard all the gun fire, the deep base, and voice clarity was amazing. I do love that you can pair these with any of LGs 2018 sound bar line up.
LG has really stepped their game up when it comes to sound. I primarily use it for movies and gaming. I really cant give you an idea of what the music sounds like since I use earphones for that. All in all, this is a great addition to my LG B7A, and could be a great addition to any TV set up. For me and what I wanted from it, exceeded my expectations.
Some reviews are saying these are not that loud. Remember, they are not supposed to be blaring in your ears. The are just adding the additional depth of sound as transmitted by the original audio format. (5.1)You can, however, change the sound to total surround via the LG WiFi Speaker App if you want surround all the time. You can also change the level of the rear sound via your LG compatible soundbar. If you have them positioned right and are watching a movie or TV show in 5.1 or Atmos, you WILL notice the difference. And I think they sound great!
One more thing--- some reviews say they don't pair at startup. The key is to unplug your SOUNDBAR first. Plug in the surround receiver and wait until it is in pair mode. THEN plug in your soundbar and I guarantee it will pair flawlessly. The manual should tell you that if your are having issues.
