Samsung doesn’t have it all to itself in the soundbar system market, with its fellow Korean rival LG also offering some options, such as its current flagship, the S95QR.

It original was released in 2022, but has received big software updates over the course of 2023 that have transformed its performance. Like the S80QR it has three upfiring drivers on the main bar, the out wide are for firing audio up towards the ceiling with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X content, while the middle driver seeks to raise the height of dialogue so that it matches its placement on screen. As the centre channel, it alos helps with dialogue clarity too.

The rear speakers also feature front-firing drivers as well as upfiring speakers to help create a bigger soundstage.

In terms of performance, it delivers more flat-out power than the Samsung Q990C is capable of, with deeper bass than its precedessor, and a wide soundstage that fills all four corners of a room. It’s the type of performance that makes you forget that there are any physical speakers in the room.

It’s also better at handling music than the SP11RA, our reviewer felt that it achieved a more authentic and respectful balance between an original stereo mix’s elements.

In terms of features the S95QR can passthrough Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG through its HDMI input, and it can also passthrough 4K/120Hz for gaming consoles, a feature that’s not often supported, if at all, with soundbars. Wowcast support also allows for the soundbar to maintain a wireless connection with a compatible LG TV, so you can do away with wired connections.
