    This JBL soundbar connected to my Sony TV immediately upon being connected via the HDMI cable. It also immediately became controllable via the TV remote. This was so easy to install and sounds great.

    This unit really fits our needs well. The remote of the television sometime interacts with the sound bar volume levels and that is a drawback somewhat.

    My previous home I used a 5.1 system and have down sized in new residence and I can't detect much difference between the two systems, especially considering the price difference.

    This was a gift from my wife and it is amazing! Replaced a 5.1 Denon surround sound with this system and it saves space and sounds better. Feels like you are in a movie theatre. Amazing!

    JBL was pointing to me by my sales associate Jessie. Besides, it was the only one my 10 Percent mail flyer would work on. But happy with the purchase. Really compact & streamline.

    Did extensive research on many soundbars this is by far the beat for the price. The bass quality is amazing and crisp clear gifs and highs. Couldn’t be happier with the purchase.

    I tried to hook it up via the instructions but I do not get any sound when my TV is playing. I do get sound with the DVD player. I finally had to hook it up via the Optical connection for sound via my TV but the sound is inferior that way. Bass does not see to work. Stopped at Best Buy asking them for their input and they were clueless.

    The sound bar produces great sound but the sub woofer was nearly silent - Maybe a defect but I returned it for a different brand.

    We had this for about a year and were happy with it until today. While watching TV my wife smelled something burning. We then heard the subwoofer start making a popping sound and smoke started coming out of the subwoofer port. I quickly unplugged the subwoofer from the wall and put it outside. Needless to say, my wife is now scared to buy another JBL sound bar unit.

    This is a great started soundbar for the price. We upgraded to Sonos but this system was just fine for the time we had it. Crisp high ends and bass loaded low ends.
