Now, LG is adding some new features to Sound Suite in response to customer feedback.

LG also teased a new "Media Connect Hub" for DTS:X devices that's currently in development.

The key new feature is DTS:X support for the H7 soundbar, the centerpiece of LG's Sound Suite. That feature, it said, will give "home theater enthusiasts additional ways to enjoy immersive, multi-dimensional audio from compatible content and source devices."

In keeping with its flexible multi-speaker underpinning, Sound Suite is also expanding compatibility in home networked environments with support for Wi-Fi 6 GHz networks and 5 GHz DFS channels. That, LG said, will give users more stereo and multi-speaker configuration options within the Sound Suite environment.
