Overall Impression
Viewer comments about the LG S80QR mostly center on confusion rather than hands-on satisfaction. One user reports that although the bar advertises Dolby Atmos, Amazon Music Unlimited flags it as incompatible for Atmos music playback, leaving them looking for a fix. Another commenter notes that, unlike its regional sibling the S80TR, the S80QR strangely requires an additional receiver to power its rear speakers. That same user also points out the S80QR is not sold in Canada, so shoppers there default to the S80TR instead. Several commenters are shopping and asking how the S80QR stacks up against rivals like the JBL Bar 500 and the Samsung Q930B, wanting to know if sound clarity is comparable.
