Connecting Your LG Soundbar with Subwoofer: A Detailed Walkthrough
Connecting an LG soundbar with a subwoofer can significantly enhance your entertainment experience. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you through the process.
Wireless Syncing
- Enable wireless subwoofer mode on your LG soundbar. This option may be found in the soundbar's settings.
- Pair the subwoofer with your soundbar using a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection. Consult your soundbar's manual for specific pairing instructions.
- Adjust wireless subwoofer settings (if necessary) to optimize performance.
- Ensure the subwoofer is set to the correct input mode.
- Check that the RCA cable is securely connected to both the soundbar and subwoofer, if using a wired connection.

Troubleshooting Delayed or Out-of-Sync Audio
- Ensure strong wireless pairing between the subwoofer and soundbar, clear obstacles, and keep the subwoofer within recommended range.
- Adjust the audio delay setting on your TV, source device, or soundbar remote to sync audio and video.
- If your LG soundbar supports LG Sound Sync (via optical cable or HDMI ARC), verify the connection is secure and the correct input is selected on the soundbar.
- Confirm that the soundbar and TV are configured to compatible audio formats like PCM, which prevents format incompatibility that can add latency or cause audio issues.
