Third-party reviews

What customers like about LG S60T

  • The center channel driver keeps dialogue clear over busy soundtracks.
  • The subwoofer is included and works wirelessly.
  • Upfiring drivers add some height without rear speakers.
  • The low end reaches 20 Hz.
  • The sturdy metal grille looks premium.
  • Simple setup pairs quickly with an LG TV.

What customers don't like about LG S60T

  • The bass lacks the deep rumble of larger systems.
  • There is no Dolby Atmos, so the sound has no full overhead layer.
  • No Wi-Fi, Chromecast or AirPlay, so streaming relies on Bluetooth.
  • Some WOW modes lose value without an LG TV.
  • The AI Sound Pro mode is hit or miss and works better switched off for films.

Verdict

For anyone whose TV speakers make dialogue hard to follow, the LG S60T is a sensible pick. Its clearest strength is the center channel driver, which keeps voices clear when the action gets loud. The wireless subwoofer comes in the box, so there is no cable to run to it. Upfiring drivers bounce sound off the ceiling to add some height without rear speakers. Setup is simple, and it pairs quickly with an LG TV. The trade-offs are real: its low end reaches 20 Hz, but the bass lacks deep rumble, and there is no Dolby Atmos or Wi-Fi. Some of the WOW modes lose value unless you own an LG TV. It suits a buyer who mostly watches films and talk shows and wants clearer dialogue, not cinema-level bass.
