British premium audio equipment maker, Meridian Audio, is not quite a household name for obvious reasons, but not anymore and the English brand probably has LG to thanks. The two companies have announced a partnership that will bring the English manufacturer’s high performance audio to the mass market, starting with a sound bar that touts Dolby Atmos. Designated as SK10Y, this sound bar boasts 550W of audio prowess, supports 5.1.2 channels, and Meridian Audio’s Bass and Space technology that promised to deliver rich, uncompromising sound.

All these are packed in a striking design synonymous with LG.
