LG is best known for its smartphones and televisions, but it also offer a highly-rated range of audio products. Apart from the basics such as headphones and wireless speakers, LG also sells various home theatre products such as speaker systems and soundbars. The South Korean electronics conglomerate is set to launch its new range of soundbars at CES 2020, which kicks off on January 7 in Las Vegas. LG has announced that the upgraded soundbar range is designed to fit in perfectly with the company's high-end 55-inch and 65-inch televisions.

The company has announced that it will launch a new lineup of soundbars at CES 2020 in January, including the SN11RG, SN10YG, SN9YG, and SN8YG models. All of these soundbars are premium models, and are meant to be used primarily with LG's high-end televisions. While full details will be revealed at CES, the company has claimed that the soundbars will feature premium audio quality, easy connectivity, smart functionality, and sleek design.

LG has worked with Meridian Audio, a British high-end manufacturer of speakers and audio products, in the development of the new soundbar range. Apart from this, the new models will have premium features such as 4K passthrough, support for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X sound formats, and compatibility with the optional SPK8 wireless rear speaker kit. The flagship SN11RG model is a 7.1.4-channel soundbar system with a subwoofer and rear speakers included in the package.

More details on the new soundbars will be revealed at the launch event at CES 2020 itself. LG is expected to have a strong presence at the annual tech show, showcasing its entire range of products as well as launching some of its big new products for 2020. This will include webOS Auto, said to be a competitor to Android Auto and Apple Car Play.

It seems you did not link to the post by LG but by a third player.  But the CES 2020 got cancelled so how are you going to  know what are the features  of the new soundbars and are they even available in the market.

They seem nice and it would have been better if we actually got a chance to view them in real.

      To elevate the cooking experience, the LG SIGNATURE Oven Range offers functions such as Gourmet AI, which uses an AI camera inside the oven to identify more than 85 dishes and automatically select the ideal cooking settings. The AI Browning feature monitors bread as it bakes and sends a notification through the ThinQ app when it reaches the preset level of doneness. Connected smartphone features include real-time monitoring, a time-lapse recap after cooking and easy sharing on social media.
      The new SIGNATURE lineup stays true to its Refined Minimal design identity – a unified aesthetic defined by sleek horizontal lines, iconic gold accents and meticulous craftsmanship. Reflecting the brand’s heritage of excellence, the latest products balance elegant design with maximized capacity and enhanced AI-driven performance.
      LG will introduce three new LG SIGNATURE design collections – Seamless, Iconic and Tailored – giving consumers the freedom to choose products that best fit their needs and personal style. Built to meet the highest performance standards, the collections incorporate bold materials that create a confident presence in the home. Aligned with this approach, LG aims to broaden its premium customer base by strengthening region-specific strategies and accelerating growth across global high-end markets.
      In addition, LG SIGNATURE will showcase immersive spaces in collaboration with Italian high-end living brand Poliform, demonstrating how the appliances harmonize with luxury interiors to deliver thoughtfully orchestrated premium living solutions.

In Seoul, LG recently opened SKS Seoul, a newly renovated showroom offering visitors a complete experience of SKS’s latest ultra-premium built-in kitchen innovations.
      LG rebranded its ultra-premium built-in line earlier this year, transitioning from SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE to SKS.

      Strategic Move to Accelerate Growth in European HVAC Market and Beyond

      SEOUL, June 30, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) has signed an agreement to acquire a 100 percent stake in OSO, one of Europe’s leading providers of water heating solutions. The strategic acquisition will further fortify LG’s comprehensive heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) portfolio – a core growth engine of its B2B business – and accelerate the company’s ambition to become a top-tier player in the HVAC industry.
      Founded in 1932, OSO offers a complete range of water heating solutions, including electric water heaters, stainless steel thermal storage systems for heat pumps and boilers, and other advanced water heating technologies. A recognized market leader, OSO has firmly established its presence in Europe’s USD 15 billion heating and hot water solutions market.
      Driving Growth Through Integrated HVAC and Water Heating Solutions
      Europe is witnessing a rapid rise in demand for air-to-water heat pump (AWHP) systems – technologies that provide heating, cooling and hot water by extracting heat from ambient air. This growth is being driven by the region’s climate policies and energy security concerns.
      According to
      link hidden, please login to view, the European heat pump market is expected to double by 2030, with annual unit sales increasing from approximately 1.2 million in 2024 to 2.4 million by the start of the next decade. By combining OSO’s product lineup with LG’s advanced heat pump technologies, the acquisition creates immediate synergies. This integration will further enhance LG’s ability to deliver complete HVAC solutions, strengthen its competitiveness in Europe and support its broader global expansion strategy. LG plans to offer integrated HVAC and water heating packages that deliver optimized solutions tailored to diverse customer needs. Furthermore, LG will combine its R&D and heat pump expertise with OSO’s deep product knowledge to broaden and elevate its overall HVAC solution portfolio.
      OSO’s Stainless Steel Hot Water Solution Lead the European Market
      Hot water systems designed for heat pumps are typically made from either enamel or stainless steel. While enamel was historically favored, stainless steel is now preferred due to its superior hygiene and resistance to corrosion.
      OSO’s stainless steel hot water solutions boast excellent energy efficiency and minimal heat loss – key advantages that have helped the company secure a leading position in Europe. With manufacturing facilities in Norway and Sweden, OSO ensures a timely and stable supply of high-quality products across the region. The company’s early adoption of automated manufacturing processes has also enabled exemplary product quality and cost competitiveness.
      LG aims to build on these capabilities by jointly pursuing manufacturing innovation with OSO, enhancing automation and productivity through its own 60+ years of production expertise. The integration of both companies’ networks and infrastructure is expected to unlock powerful synergies.
      Following the acquisition, OSO will continue to operate independently, retain its existing OEM partnerships and pursue new growth opportunities – while benefiting from LG’s global scale and resources.
      Accelerating Growth with LG’s “3B” Strategy: Build, Borrow, Buy
      In late 2024, LG established the ES Company to accelerate growth in its HVAC business. With an ambitious goal to outpace industry growth in the cleantech sector, the ES Company offers a comprehensive HVAC portfolio spanning residential and commercial air conditioners to large-scale chillers.
      LG is also pioneering the digital transformation of HVAC, applying AI-powered technologies to next-generation solutions for data centers, nuclear facilities and mega factories.
      To drive this growth, LG’s HVAC business is actively implementing a “3B Strategy”: building internal capabilities, borrowing external expertise and buying through strategic acquisitions. The OSO deal exemplifies this approach and underscores LG’s commitment to expanding its B2B footprint through mergers, acquisitions and partnerships.
      “LG’s deep know-how in Heat Pump Water Heaters in combination with OSO stainless steel tank leadership will ensure sustainable, high-quality product solutions for our customers,” said Sigurd Braathen, Owner of OSO Group AS.
      “OSO’s proven water heating solutions are a strategic catalyst for LG’s HVAC expansion,” added James Lee, president of the LG ES Company. “Together, we will deliver highly efficient, integrated solutions that strengthen our market leadership and support global electrification for a more sustainable future.”

What’s more, the Zero Connect Box eliminates the need for gaming consoles and set-top boxes around the screen, resulting in a sleek, clutter-free setup.
      Offered in sizes ranging from 50 to 100 inches, the 2025 QNED evo models meet the diverse needs of today’s consumers. As demand for ultra-large screens continues to rise, LG’s new 100-inch QNED TV delivers a cinema-quality experience – bringing immersive, theater-like visuals into the home.
