LG’S BEAUTIFUL CURVED SOUND BAR SOUNDS AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS

Sydney, August 20, 2015 — LG Electronics has globally announced that its stunning Music Flow HS8 Wireless Curved Sound Bar will be on display during IFA from September 4-9. A great companion to the company’s latest cutting-edge curved TVs, the Music Flow HS8 Wireless Curved Sound Bar will be available to European customers this week.

The curved shape of the sound bar is for more than just looks, it contributes to an incredibly immersive experience with tweeters positioned on both sides of the sound bar to expand the range of sound and deliver a great experience.

The LG HS8 also comes with the company’s highly dynamic i-Sound Mode. This feature helps to improve the TV experience by adapting its sound settings to match a variety of audio from various types of content. The i-Sound Mode is able tointerpret what the audience is listening and automatically adjust the audio output tomatch the content, helping to improve television, movies, and music sound.

What’s more, the HS8 Curved Sound Bar joins the wireless LG Music Flow collection, which is compatible with Google Cast™. This incredibly convenient feature allows the HS8 to work well with popular streaming music services so that listeners can send music from their smartphone or tablet directly to the sound bar via their home Wi-Fi network. Select the music you want to play on the device, click the Google Cast icon and the content is streamed to the Curved Sound Bar.

With Wi-Fi connectivity, the LG HS8 can be used to transmit audio content across multiple rooms simultaneously, linking with LG Music Flow speakers to create an amazing listening experience. When a pair of Music Flow speakers are set-up as rear speakers (sold separately), the Home Cinema Mode immerses the viewer in a rich, cinematic experience. An additional feature, the Multi-room Mode can be programmed to turn the entire home into one large sound system. Users can control the music in each room with a smartphone or tablet device, enabling them to select a playlist for the entire house or choose different songs for each room. Another feature of the HS8 is its compatibility with TV remotes from eight popular manufacturers.

“As a company that has brought to market stunning curved TVs, it’s only natural that we also follow up with a curved audio product to match,” said Min Byung-hoon, senior vice president of the LG Home Entertainment Company’s Consumer Audio Visual division. “In the digital age, the way consumers listen to music has changed dramatically and LG Music Flow is our response to movie and music lovers’ desire for beautiful devices that perform as well as they look.”

The HS8 will be on display during IFA at the LG booth in Hall 18 of Messe Berlin from September 4-9.

Pricing and availability of the Curved Sound Bar have yet to be determined for the Australian market.
