    Died just outside of warranty and both Best Buy and JBL support were worthless. It's a shame because I always thought JBL was a quality company but I'll never buy one of their products again.

    I really liked this soundbar. I always thought of JBL as quality products and I decided to spend $300+ on this soundbar/subwoofer to replace a 5+ year old Vizio soundbar/subwoofer. Everything was great until I got home from work and my subwoofer was dead. It wont power on at all. This lasted me less fhan 2 years and it was outside of the 1 year warranty. I cannot recommend this product.

    I wish you could adjust the bass to be deeper than the 3 options you get with it

    The sound was just not rich enough for the space I put this soundbar and subwoofer in. Returned and replaced with a Samsung. Not too happy with the Samsung either. Going to bite the bullet and get a Sonus

    It worked great when it worked. Purchased January 14th, 2024, and it stopped working February 5th, 2025. Still looks new. So Disappointing!

    Sounds pretty horrible. Mine didn't come with a remote, so I couldn't connect the subwoofer to see how it sounds. However, the sound bar sounds terrible - worse than the stock speakers built into my 7 year old TV, even. I am so disappointed - it's being returned.

    WAY too bass-heavy. This is a sound bar designed for people who think quality sound just means more bass. It crushes the high notes and blends everything together with the bass coming in way too strong even on the low setting for the subwoofer. I expected better from JBL. I ended up returning it and replacing with a Denon 3.1 instead
