Our Verdict

LG SN11RG

Sony HT-A7000 with Speakers + Bass Module

The LG SN11RG and the Sony HT-A7000 with Speakers + Bass Module are both very premium setups, but the LG scores better overall. The LG has a better Atmos performance, and it gets louder with less compression at max volume. Also, it offers more sound enhancement features, including bass and treble adjustments. That said, the Sony is better built with a better surrounds performance.
