New WiSA Ready Standard - 2019 LG OLED and NanoCell TVs

26 replies
Steve @ soundsheavenly has a solution for the lab 5, they need a fully seated pl but there is a work around.

With lg and wisa the tv’s own speakers will not work. It’s an either / or situation. The bs stage will have too much latency to work as a center from line in like this, so that won’t work.

Vince,

1. The Axiim LINK has a DSP to perform the audio functions like bass management, EQ, audio mixing, etc.

2. The LG TV only allows you to use WiSA Ready or the TV speakers but not at the same time. Also, honestly you wouldn't want to use the LG as a center because the quality is nowhere near the performance of the B&O speakers. 

An alternative is you can buy an Axiim WM5211CS center channel and we have many customers that do this.

3. This is a great question. I'm not sure if ARC works while WiSA Ready is enabled. I will check today and see.

Thank you,

James

LINK supports bass management, audio mixing, etc. Will this allow a redirecting of the subwoofer channel to the front speakers (Beolab 5 contain subwoofers)? In other words does LINK support the set-up of a 5.0 system?

Yes, LINK supports 5.0 configuration and will redirect the content to the main L/R channels.

Hi James any further info on the last point thanks

Vince,

I just checked and the LG TV requires you choose between the WiSA and ARC so you can't have them both on at the same time.

Are there other TVs that would allow me to use wisa with your solution, while at the same time allowing to use either the tv speaker as center or the b&o stage?

Thanks!

Right now the only LG is the only TV certified as "WiSA Ready". It's a great start but we definitely would like to see more TV manufacturers on board. In the mean time you can use the Axiim Q UHD Media Center with any TV. Here is a link,

Hi James would this be compatible with the BO sound stage?

Thanks
