So we’re going to spend a bit of time looking at the price of both. You’re also going to want to know how durable the product is, so here we’d advise taking a look at the materials that the Home cinema systems and sound bars are made from. LG is introducing three new sound modes to better tailor audio processing to the type of content that you’re watching. In addition to the existing music, cinema and bass blast profiles, there will be new modes for Sports and Gaming as well as 'Clear Voice' that will enhance the signal being sent to the soundbars centre channel for more dialogue clarity. The new modes will feature on the SP11RA, SP9YA, SP8YA, SPD7Y and SP7Y. Enhanced compatibility with LG TVs As an added convenience you will also be able to control the soundbar’s power, volume and sound modes using the LG TV remote.

It’s really good at this stage to spend some time just getting an idea of the sort of price you can expect to pay for your Home cinema systems and sound bars. When you’re spent a bit of time looking at the prices, consider setting yourself a budget. While the small size of the SL8YG’s drivers is no doubt partly to blame for its limited dynamic range, that has at least allowed LG to create a compact bar that’s shallow (12cm) and short (5.5cm) – the ideal design for placement under a TV. At 106cm wide, it’s about the width of a modern 49in TV and will also fit very neatly beneath a 55in or 65in model.

There’s a comprehensive list of connectivity options that can be easily accessed via the touch buttons, minimalist remote or the app. For streaming, alongside Bluetooth and wi-fi, there’s Chromecast and Apple Airplay 2. If you have access to hi-res content, you’ll be pleased to know the soundbar can handle audio of up to 24-bit/192kHz quality. Sadly, that isn’t the case. LG’s middling form in this market continues. Perhaps in 2020 it will turn it around.

It’s not perfect though. There are better Dolby Atmos performers available for not much more outlay, such as the Sonos Arc, and the separate sub feels like a bit of a missed opportunity, especially considering rival Samsung’s punchy Q range.

That leads us nicely into price, where we’re going to spend some time looking at the price of LG SPK8-S 2.0 Wireless Rear Speaker Kit and seeing how that compares to other Home cinema systems and sound bars and also looking at the sort of price you can expect to pay for products from LG. Switching to Steely Dan’s sonically precise but lyrically questionable Cousin Dupree, the split between the high and low end on the SP8YA feels a bit more pronounced. The sparkling clarity of the hi-hat and the leading edge of the guitar feels unbalanced by the slightly limp sub on what should be a tight funk bass line. However, it doesn’t manage to pull focus, and smaller embellishments such as the syncopated keyboard line and vocal harmonies still sing out. Verdict However, we then like to go a little deeper to explore more detail about the product by looking at products in the same category as LG SPK8-S 2.0 Wireless Rear Speaker Kit. That then tells us that there are 149 products in the Home Cinema category at Currys PC World.
