The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro system is the first Dolby Atmos FlexConnect (DAFC) product on the consumer soundbar market. The configuration features the LG Sound Suite H7 as the main soundbar and comes with four LG Sound Suite M7 speakers as satellites, and a dedicated LG Sound Suite W7 subwoofer. DAFC allows for dynamically expandable soundbar systems that work with flexible numbers and placements of satellites to suit more varied listening spaces. The LG's DAFC integration and modularity could be the first in a new generation of soundbars that get closer to delivering home-theater-level audio without the setup complexity and headache.
Our Verdict
The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro is great for mixed usage. The soundbar system handles a variety of content types with ease, from podcasts to movies to music. It has a dedicated subwoofer and four satellites that facilitate plenty of bass; a wide, precise stereo soundstage; and detailed surround effects. While the bar lacks an HDMI In port for video passthrough, audio latency isn't prohibitively high for casual console gaming, though we'd recommend avoiding competitive PvP titles. Some users with extensive physical media libraries may also miss the DTS audio format support; the bar supports PCM up to 7.1 channels, though, so you're in the clear if your source device can decode DTS formats.
Low enough audio latency for casual gaming via HDMI eARC
Four discrete satellites and dedicated subwoofer.
No DTS family format support.
The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro is great for dialogue and dialogue-centric TV shows. If you mostly watch YouTube videos, older sitcoms and dramas, or listen to podcasts, the entire system is probably overkill. The main soundbar alone uses front and up-firing center-channel drivers to reproduce dialogue that gets loud enough to stay comprehensible even during busier content, so you don't need the bells and whistles from the additional satellites and subwoofer. Plus, you have access to enhancement features like a dialogue enhancement preset or a custom EQ preset if you prefer to tune your audio so voices are just right.

Powerful center-channel output.
Rear satellites not necessary or active for dialogue content.
The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro is great for music. The dedicated subwoofer ensures you have plenty of bass on tap for the lowest of dubstep wobbles, while the front placement of two satellites widens the stereo soundstage without sounding artificial or overly processed. The stereo frequency response closely matches our in-room target, too, so you can enjoy balanced, slightly warm audio that's tuned to your space with the built-in room correction feature. There's also a Custom EQ preset that lets you adjust an 8-band graphic EQ if you need to make any tweaks to taste. That said, you can't adjust the individual speaker or channel outputs due to how Dolby Atmos FlexConnect integrates with the system.

Expansive and precise stereo soundstage.
No channel- or speaker-specific level adjustments.
The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro is great for movies. The system features a dedicated subwoofer, four satellite speakers, and Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, which adapts the system's behavior depending on where you place each speaker. With our satellite layout (two front, two rear), the system excels in horizontal front panning and balances different elements of the mix without sacrificing detail in surround effects like crinkling glass or intelligibility of quiet dialogue. Still, the implementation isn't perfect; the height-channel performance in Atmos content is still vague relative to discrete satellites in a traditional home theater setup (but solid from a soundbar system). The bar also falls short in connectivity, as it omits Optical and HDMI inputs and doesn't support DTS audio formats.

Popular Soundbar Comparisons
The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro is one of the most expansive soundbar sets we've tested, matched only in discrete satellite count (four) by the Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 eARC. That said, the Nakamichi entry doesn't feature Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, which can optimize speaker performance even if you have horizontal asymmetry or adjust the front-to-back placement of the speakers. Still, the Nakamichi gets notably louder, though its stereo soundstage is narrower and overall tuning is prone to being overly bassy. While other contenders like the Samsung HW-Q990F and Sonos Ultimate Immersive Set with Arc Ultra don't have the same tuning shortcomings as the Nakamichi, neither can leverage two additional satellites as additional front speakers to expand the width of its stereo soundstage. Still, the Samsung has HDMI In ports, letting you use the bar as a device hub, while the Sonos has more convincing height effects in Atmos content. Ultimately, the LG's biggest advantage over the competition is its flexibility in satellite placement, which can save you some setup headache if you're concerned about the aesthetics and layout of your living room, for instance.
As you'd expect, stepping up from the standalone LG Sound Suite H7 to the M7- and W7-equipped Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro means huge improvements in immersiveness and low-frequency extension, resulting in a better experience for movies and music. However, the full system is subject to the same shortcomings as the bar, like the lack of DTS audio format support.

The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro offers a comparable feature set to the Samsung HW-Q990H, though there are clear trade-offs between the two. The LG's 9.1.6 configuration comes with four satellites, compared to the Samsung's two satellites. Consequently, the LG has a better surrounds performance, along with a wider stereo soundstage. Both soundbar setups are expandable: while the LG's configuration is its most maximalist form, the Samsung can be bolstered with additional Music Studio 5 or 7 speakers. If you watch a lot of DTS content, the Samsung will be the natural pick given the LG doesn't support this format. The Samsung's HDMI In and passthrough capabilities also make it a strong option for gamers that need their bar to act as a hub between a display and console.
The LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro and Samsung HW-Q990F are soundbar sets that come with a dedicated subwoofer and satellites. The newer LG includes four satellites, while the Samsung comes with just two. The LG also supports Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, which optimizes the satellite performance based on placement and allows for more flexible configurations compared to the Samsung. That said, the Samsung is still the better gaming pickup as it supports HDMI In devices, which allows for lower A/V desync. If you don't need DTS support, the LG has a wider, more immersive soundstage, though it doesn't get as loud.
The Sonos Ultimate Immersive Set with Arc Ultra and LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro are expanded sets using a base soundbar. The Sonos has two satellites and a sub, while the LG features four satellites and a sub. Thanks to the extra satellites serving as additional front speakers, the LG's stereo soundstage is wider and more immersive. Still, we found the Sonos's height channel performance was marginally better than the LG, providing a bit more height and precision to overhead effects like flying drones.
The Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 eARC and LG Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro both have four discrete satellites. That said, the Nakamichi features an additional subwoofer, which can mitigate in-room bass frequency inconsistencies. It also has better connectivity options featuring both HDMI In and eARC options, while the LG only provides the latter. Still, the LG has a more balanced sound output across channels and a significantly wider stereo soundstage with its satellites that still sounds natural despite the system up-mixing stereo content.
