LG CJ45 Home Theater System (2017 Model)

This audio system offers just about everything to hook up to all your newer aged technology and has a wide assortment of settings to make yourself the coolest DJ in your own home. Conquer the highs and the lows with 720 watts of power, channeling out of a big subwoofer, tweeters, and two speakers! Connect just about any device and jam out!

Bought this for Karaoke feature and bluetooth; bluetooth connection is terrible and keeps dropping off every few seconds. Karaoke feature is an outright FRAUD – all this does is to reduce overall volume to very low.

Sound quality is very unbalanced, with too much boom and not enough mid-range; it also looks hideous.

Amazon refused to refund or replace, instead shunted me over to LG who refused to replace or refund, but offered to ‘repair’ – lets see if that repair works.

UPDATE: the extended warranty that Amazon sold us was a waste of money – they refused to refund or replace the unit saying ‘they found no problem’ with the stereo

Shame on you Amazon – as a loyal customer I expect better from you

I own neither an oscilloscope nor a video game system. I like music. The sound from this system is very, very good. Not great. It’s under $300, remember. But very good. What I was most concerned about is “sonic fatigue,” which can easily set in when fidelity is compromised. It doesn’t happen with this system. You get good clear reproduction. You don’t get bass that shakes the world. You get good bass from the sub-woofer, as part of the music rather than as a weapon of war. And there is an equalizer of sorts; there are a variety of presets (I think 8) through which you can flip until you find the setting that brings out the music the way that you want.

There is only a single CD drive, but two USB ports. I haven’t used the USB support. Old school. CD’s sound great. Also, television sound is pretty good as well, although mine is wired. It appears that this will produce wireless sound if paired with an LG TV, but so far I haven’t gotten that to work with my Samsung. The print manual is sketchy, so you want to download the online version.

Overall, my wife was skeptical when this arrived, but she’s convinced. So am I. It’s a good system for a budget.

Quality is great for mids, highs, and higher lows. But if you’re looking for something with good lows, this unit isn’t for you. I made use of it, have it in the garage for work outs, but not what I expected. Again it’s not a bad product in general, but not what I wanted.
