Meridian Audio and LG Electronics (LG) have just announced the release of LG’s new 2019 range of sound bars with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support.

Meridian has collaborated closely with LG to improve sound quality to three new sound bar models for 2019 (SL10YG, SL9YG and SL8YG).

“From the start of our partnership in 2017, Meridian and LG have combined our expertise to produce pioneering audio solutions for more people to enjoy around the globe,” says Meridian Audio chief executive John Buchanan.

“We’re delighted to now offer more of Meridian’s innovative technologies for LG’s 2019 sound bar range, creating a more authentic, immersive and thrilling home theatre audio experience.”

Meridian has implemented three unique technologies in collaboration with LG;

• Meridian ‘Bass & Space’ technology improves the soundstage delivering a coherent sound image with a strong bass response;
• Meridian ‘Image Elevation’ creates a more lifelike listening experience by physcoacoustically matching the positioning of the sound with the on-screen image; and,
• Meridian ‘Upmix’ technology improves the soundstage of the whole system.

“Our 2019 sound bars deliver amazing sound and the convenience of smart AI connectivity, fine-tuned in close partnership with Meridian Audio,” says LG’s Home Entertainment Company head of convergence audio and video business Seo Young-jae.

“The high-quality sound and versatility of our 2019 line-up takes home entertainment to a whole new level. These compelling offerings satisfy growing demand for premium sound bar solutions that provide impressive listening experiences, greater convenience and stylish, modern aesthetics.
