Our Verdict

LG S75Q

LG SG10TY

The LG SG10TY has the edge over the LG S75Q, though the largest differences come down to size. The SG10TY is a 3.1 soundbar, which is meant to be mounted onto the wall. It can get louder with fewer compression artifacts, ensuring your audio sounds clear, even at high volumes. There are also more customization features available to help you make the most out of the bar. It also supports more wireless connectivity options like Wi-Fi. That said, you may still prefer the better-built S57Q if you're low on space since it's a lot smaller.
