With Immersive Sound, Versatile LG TV Integration and Enhanced Features,
LG Provides Elevated Audio Experience With Latest Soundbars
SEOUL, Dec. 19, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) unveils its 2024 soundbar lineup, including the S95TR, SG10TY and S70TY models. Crafted to seamlessly complement LG TVs, these soundbars promise an elevated home cinema experience through their robust sound quality, well-rounded features and sophisticated designs.
Creating an enhanced synergy between the soundbar and TV, the elevated audio quality of LG’s newest soundbar models enriches the home entertainment experience with a heightened sense of immersion and greater convenience. When paired with WOW Orchestra, the soundbar and LG TV harness the full potential of their audio channels, creating an unrivaled audio experience with an enlarged soundstage and improved depth and height. The ideal choice for a surround sound experience, LG’s new soundbars deliver the superior quality of Dolby Atmos, driven by the advanced technology of DTS:X.
WOWCAST takes audio excellence a step further, allowing the S95TR and SG10TY models to connect wirelessly to LG TVs, ensuring superior sound without any compromise, even when playing Dolby Atmos audio. All three new soundbar models feature the WOW interface, an intuitive and user-friendly method to effortlessly manage soundbar settings and share sound modes with the TV.
At the forefront of LG’s new soundbar lineup is the premium S95TR model, delivering an impressive 810W output and captivating surround sound through its 15 channels. The S95TR boasts five up-firing channels, including the industry’s first center up-firing speaker, creating an unparalleled three-dimensional audio experience with enhanced clarity and an expanded soundstage. Moreover, the angle of the center up-firing speaker ensures a seamless audio-visual experience with precise elevation to the TV screen’s level.
The S95TR features improved tweeters for clear and precise audio, while also incorporating a passive radiator to enrich bass sounds and optimize the overall balance between the soundbar and the subwoofer. Notably, viewing quality is further strengthened in the S95TR model, designed with a matte color palette, materials and finish to effectively reduce reflections.
The SG10TY, another new LG soundbar, serves as the perfect audio and visual companion to LG’s premium OLED TVs. WOW Orchestra, WOW Interface, and WOWCAST enable the SG10TY model to seamlessly integrate with LG OLED TVs, completing the viewing experience for a greater sense of immersion. Remarkably, connecting WOWCAST to the SG10TY model and an LG premium OLED TV creates a wireless home entertainment experience with no visible cables between the screen and the soundbar. This Wi-Fi enabled soundbar provides a flawless listening experience with a high-fidelity audio quality for listeners to enjoy their favorite tracks on music streaming platforms including Tidal Connect and Spotify Connect. The thoughtful design of the SG10TY flawlessly aligns with the width and frame colors of LG OLED TVs, resulting in an impeccable visual match when paired with an ultra-thin OLED TV.
LG will also roll out the S70TY soundbar model, ideal for LG QNED TVs with its simple and compact design. This model also features the industry’s first center up-firing speaker, providing sharpened voice clarity. The angled design ensures harmonious audio and visual in alignment with the TV screen’s level.
A dedicated bracket for the S70TY model* allows users to place the soundbar directly beneath the QNED TV for a refined appearance. This bracket provides a convenient solution for direct attachment, eliminating the need to drill holes in the wall during installation. The bracket allows customizable wall-mounting of the S70TY soundbar at various heights or locations, guaranteeing an aesthetically ideal setup, great convenience and an optimal sound experience.
LG Triple Level Spatial Sound technology applies channel analysis through a 3D engine to mesmerize listeners with lifelike sound and a compelling sense of space. What’s more, LG AI Room Calibration – a feature praised by both consumers and experts for its audio enhancement – rapidly analyzes the environment of a room and adjusts the settings, enhancing the audio to harmonize with the room’s acoustics. New for 2024, the AI Room Calibration extends its capability to calibrate the audio of rear surround speakers, expanding audio immersion and offering more flexibility for installation.
In 2024, LG also plans to introduce new editions of speakers and earbuds to the global market. Despite its compact design, the most recent XO2 model offers the authentic, omnidirectional audio of the LG XBOOM 360 speaker. Featuring a distinctive conical-cylindrical design, it radiates sound in all directions, ensuring consistent, high-quality audio enjoyment for everyone in the listening space. Its compact dimensions, along with 20-hour battery life and IP55 rating, increase its portability and versatility. The most recent XBOOM 360 speaker boasts unique 360-degree mood lighting using audio reflectors, presenting a new lighting design that emanates a sense of openness and diffusion.
LG TONE Free earbuds continue to be ideal for an on-the-go option with user-centric features and a comfortable fit. The latest T90S model offers balanced sound, improved Dolby Head Tracking and refined Adaptive ANC. Additionally, the T90S supports Plug & Wireless, allowing users to enjoy their favorite shows, movies and music on non-Bluetooth devices by using the charging case as a Bluetooth transmitter.
“LG has always been committed to delivering unmatched audio-visual experiences with superior quality, all to bring a better life to our valued customers,” said Lee Jeong-seok, head of LG Home Entertainment Company’s audio business. “We remain dedicated to providing immersive home entertainment experiences through LG’s premium soundbar products, ensuring our customers enjoy the very best with further enhanced surround sound optimized for LG OLED TVs and LG QNED TVs.”

Company Achieves Highest Annual Revenue as Home Appliances and Vehicle
Components Continue Growth for Ninth Consecutive Year
SEOUL, Jan. 23, 2025 — LG Electronics Inc. (LG) announced its financial results for the year 2024, disclosing a consolidated revenue of KRW 87.73 trillion and an operating profit of KRW 3.42 trillion. This marks a new record for the highest annual revenue in the company’s history.
In terms of revenue, both the home appliances and the vehicle components business continued their growth for the ninth consecutive year, contributing to the company’s highest revenue achievement. The LG Home Entertainment Company and Business Solutions Company also saw an increase in revenue compared to the previous year.
Operating profit experienced a slight decline compared to the previous year, primarily due to external factors such as a delayed recovery in global demand for home appliances and increased logistics costs in the second half of the year. Despite these challenges, the company maintained a stable profit structure on an annual basis. This stability was achieved through qualitative growth resulting from business portfolio restructuring and the operating leverage effect from increased sales.
2024 Business Performance
The LG Home Appliance & Air Solution Company reported a revenue of KRW 33.2 trillion in 2024. After surpassing KRW 30 trillion in annual revenue for the first time two years ago, the Company has continued to demonstrate sustainable performance, achieving double-digit revenue growth last year. Operating profit reached KRW 2.04 trillion, overcoming the challenges posed by increased logistics costs. This marks the first time since 2021 that the Company has exceeded KRW 2 trillion in operating profit.
The Company’s qualitative growth was driven by changes in its business models, which include home appliance subscriptions and Direct-to-Consumer sales. Revenue from home appliance subscriptions surged by over 75 percent compared to the previous year, nearing KRW 2 trillion. In addition, the B2B segment, which includes heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, continued to expand.
The LG Home Entertainment Company reported a revenue of KRW 15.23 trillion and an operating profit of KRW 315.9 billion in 2024. Sales of OLED TVs saw growth in regions such as Europe and Asia, driven by global sports events. Additionally, the webOS-based advertising and content business surpassed KRW 1 trillion in annual revenue.
The LG Vehicle component Solutions Company reported a revenue of KRW 10.62 trillion in 2024, marking the second consecutive year it has surpassed KRW 10 trillion in revenue. Despite experiencing a temporary slowdown in demand for electric vehicles, the Company demonstrated stable revenue growth for the ninth consecutive year, supported by a high order backlog. However, operating profit decreased to KRW 115.7 billion compared to the previous year, primarily due to increased development costs for new order projects and R&D investments aimed at transitioning to software-defined vehicles (SDV).
The LG Business Solutions Company reported a revenue of KRW 5.69 trillion in 2024, with an operating loss of KRW 193.1 billion. The increase in revenue was driven by a focus on customized commercial displays for sectors such as hotels, stores, businesses and schools, as well as premium IT products like the LG gram. However, the Company continued to face operating losses due to rising raw material prices for key products and intensified market competition.
2025 Business Directions
LG will consistently pursue qualitative growth through business portfolio innovation, despite the rapidly changing global market and competitive environment. Following the regrouping of the company’s business operation units at the end of last year, LG aims to enhance synergies between its businesses and improve operational efficiency. Additionally, LG will focus on strengthening the fundamental competitiveness of its businesses in terms of quality and cost, while securing a sound profit structure.
The LG Home Appliance Solution Company plans to launch new products with regional specialization and AI applications, aiming to expand sales by increasing sales of its volume zone lineups. The Company will also advance its AI home solution business to achieve its goal of “Zero Labor Home, Makes Quality Time.” Additionally, the subscriptions business will actively expand beyond Korea, Malaysia and Taiwan to include Thailand, India and other regions, continuously creating new opportunities.
The LG Media Entertainment Solution Company aims to expand sales of premium products such as OLED and QNED, while providing differentiated customer experiences through AI features. The Company will integrate operations of LG’s screen-based businesses – including TVs, IT devices and information displays – to enhance synergies between hardware and platform businesses. Additionally, webOS will be developed into an integrated content and services platform for both indoor and outdoor use through continuous content investment and partnership expansion.
The LG Vehicle Solution Company aims to focus on going beyond a supplier of vehicle components to becoming a provider of innovative solutions for the entire vehicular experience. The Company will focus on securing SDV capabilities in preparation for the future. It will also strive to maintain stable revenue based on its order backlogs while improving profitability through product mix enhancement and overall operational improvements.
The newly established LG Eco Solution Company aims to rapidly grow LG’s HVAC business into a global top-tier player by leveraging its core technological competitiveness in key components such as motors and compressors. The Company will focus on building locally self-sustainable production systems and developing region-specific solutions. It will provide comprehensive solutions optimized for various spaces, including industrial, commercial, public and residential facilities, ranging from large chillers to commercial and residential air conditioners.
