Buying New TV Need A Soundbar Recommendation

I second the Sennheiser Amebeo.  I had two different LG soundbars and listened to the Sonos.  The Amebeo is far superior.  A sub does help the bottom end but isn't required.

Hi , my daughter picked up the Sonos Arc and a pair of the “ 5 “ speakers. She has one of the newer styled cracker box houses with a “ Great Room” kitchen, living room combo. So half of her 2000 sq ft house is one big room with tile floors , hard flat walls and a 20’ ceiling. One big echo chamber. So the Sonos system has digital correction and I forgot, she has the matching sub that looks like a square doughnut. Considering it’s in the worst acoustics room I can imagine, it sounds great. The sound bar alone sounds pretty good. They’re available at your local box store and online. I would find a return policy that suits your needs and give one a try. I’m not a  sound bar guy, but this one’s pretty sweet. LOL at the comments from the peanut gallery. The last time I put someone on blast was over a political comment and I got chastised for being too sensitive. Having worked in a prison, we call those people Window Warriors. Regards, Mike B. 

The Bluesound Soundbar + is $900.00 and by itself gives a more natural music and sound track experience than the Arc in my listening. It too offers wireless surround and Sub options although those will burst your budget. If you use the Node for streaming it syncs up too. 

You'll love your your 65" LG OLED TV! I bought the LG CX OLED a few years back

I have a 5.1 but only use the front three channels  plus a sub

It's all contained in a low profile credenza with the T V above  If your only option is a sound bar you might want to consider one that comes with a small sub thats easy to hide. All things considered you might be pleasantly surprised by the sound quality from your new TV

Thanks all, I will be picking up my order Saturday. I needed to grab the TV quickly as there was only one of the G1 in the box left, as the G2 is now coming out. Works well for me as its a significant discount off of normal selling price. Of course it could have been a crafty salesman technique and there are 6 more in the back room, but I knew I wanted a G1 and the price is good so I could not take the chance there was only one. Have that happen before and seen it sold. 

When I get to the store I am going to see what they have for the Sonus soundbars and see if I can give them a listen. I am not adverse to upgrading to the Arc ones if I can hear them being worth it. 

We kept our Panasonic plasma for a long time, but we are not heavy TV users. Bought it in 2008 and the best deal available then was at Costco for about $1200 for a 50 inch. Picture is still good on it and functions as it should, Panasonic built a heck of a piece. This TV is probably overkill for us but I would rather buy up and for  the future as we do not change things out quickly but wait till things are used up. 

With any luck I will get to hear the other sound bars, the Sonus seems to be well thought of also. But if not then this LG should be just fine considering I spent the last 14 years hearing the speakers built into the Panasonic.
