Don’t want to deal with rearranging your living room furniture to place Dolby Atmos speakers in just the right place? Dolby’s new and more flexible Atmos technology lets you decide where your speakers go, and the feature has arrived in a soundbar for the first time. Slated to take the spotlight at CES next month, the LG H7 soundbar is just one component of the manufacturer’s new and modular Sound Suite system, which also incorporates surround speakers (in two sizes) and a subwoofer. LG hasn’t announced pricing or shipping details for the Sound Suite quite yet (hopefully we’ll learn more once CES kicks off in early January), but what we do know is that the system works with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, a Dolby technology that lets you place FlexConnect-enabled Atmos speakers whenever you like in a room. TCL was the first home-entertainment manufacturer to partner with Dolby on its new “Atmos-anywhere” technology, with TCL’s Dolby Atmos FlexConnect TVs and speakers arriving in stores back in August. Dolby Atmos FlexConnect gear only plays nice with components that also employ the technology. For example, TCL’s Atmos FlexConnect speakers must be paired with specific and similarly equipped TCL QD-Mini LED TV models, meaning you can’t use the TCL Atmos FlexConnect speakers with just any TV. A similar limitation applies with LG’s Dolby Atmos FlexConnect equipment, except this time, the LG H7 soundbar itself can serve as the main hub for LG’s FlexConnect speakers, meaning you can use LG’s new FlexConnect gear with any TV, providing you’re using the H7 soundbar. LG also says it will bring FlexConnect to its 2026 lineup of “premium” TVs and to select 2025 models via a software update, good for users who elect to buy LG’s new Dolby Atmos FlexConnect satellite speakers or subwoofer without the soundbar. Powered by LG’s Alpha 11 AI Processor Gen 3, the LG H7 soundbar boasts an AI Sound Pro+ mode that intelligently up-mixes stereo audio to multi-channel sound while automatically adjusting its audio signature depending on the content you’re watching. Also included in the LG Sound Suite are M7 and M2 surround speakers as well as the W7 subwoofer (we’re awaiting more details on those speakers). If you combine the H7 soundbar with four M7 or M2 speakers plus the subwoofer, you’ll wind up with a full-on 13.1.7-channel configuration, LG says. The overall LG Sound Suite system boasts an ultra wideband-enabled “Sound Follow” feature that positions the “sweet spot” wherever you’re sitting, while Room Calibration Pro tailors the audio depending on the acoustics of the room.
