Basic TV Sound System

[shadowguy56121]

This may seem like a dumb question, but I am looking into soundbars for a new TV, and I was wondering if all soundbars work with all TVs or if since I have an LG TV I need an LG soundbar, with proper cables and connectors (of course). Recommendations are appreciated, but I mainly want to know tips about compatibility. Thanks!

Always share make/model #'s ..so much easier.
Most likely your TV has optical Toslink out and most soundbars accept that.
Need to know your TV to get more specific than that.

Tv has optical out, there are a few suggestive Lg soundbars listed in that link but any 2.1 soundbar brand with optical will work.

The only possible advantage of using the same brand soundbar is that the remote for the TV is more likely be able to operate the soundbar eliminating the need to switch between two remotes.
