Our Verdict

LG S75Q

LG S75QR

The LG S75QR is better than the LG S75Q. They're the same bar and sub, but the S75QR adds rear speakers for an improved surround sound. You notice a more clear and real feel with content like Dolby Digital and Dolby Atmos, which are common on streaming platforms and Blu-rays.
