    Something doesn't add up.

    320 Watt soundbar running off batteries? Are we back to the days of peak music power output wattages being quoted which could safely be divided by a hundred to give a more realistic estimate?

    Sonos sonos everywhere!

    Great to see some other sound / music kit being mentioned on the old reg, rather than just Sonos stuff. Even then, the word Sonos was mentioned quite a lot more than LG were, despite the fact this is an article about LG kit. I've never really got the Sonos / El Reg obsession, shed loads of other makers kit available, much of it shed loads better sounding, more technologically interesting and more newsworthty. Sonos is quite old hat in a lot of ways now. Hopefully a sound kit related article that doens't mention Sonos in the near future?
