    Excellent sound quality. Bass is incredible. The LG 3.1 Soundbar is ideal for small to large rooms. The inputs/outputs options, including the Audio Return Channel (ARC), is a great feature to use if your TV supports it. Highly recommend and would buy again.

    I first bought aSony 2.1 sound bar and it was easy to use, but even with the sub woofer turned up, I could barely hear the bass. Read a bunch of reviews and turned the Sony back in and got this JBL. Also easy to set up, IPod connects by wireless with good sound. Many nice features like picking a mode..voice, music, sports, movie..night time setting, synced right away with my Sony TV. But the best part? The subwoofer is awesome. I had to turn it down as my walls were literally shaking during some action movies...love it! Easy to adjust the subwoofer to whatever level you desire...plenty of power. If you are looking for an easy system to install with lots of features and great bass, this is the sound bar for you.

    I purchased because my Samsung TV's sound is very low, and this system really made my movie experience better than expected.. the only bad thing is that sometimes it gets disconnected from my TV. Other than that, I really like it.

    Went in for a sound bar came out with a sound system. This thing is Insane. The bass and sound quality it puts out cant be beat for the price and minimal equipment you get with it. My walls shake when this thing it on.

    this is actually excellent but didn't give it 5 stars because the remote is a pain unless I have a bad one. Overall it has great bass for movies and easy to install also has 3 inputs and can connect dvd player to it if needed. I Love it!

    This small one bar and gigantic subwoofer sound a whole lot better than the sound system I had before. The bass is super present and sometimes you have to turn down the bass cuz it’s too much. It’s an amazing piece of audio technology

    The TV we have has small speakers facing down and conversations on the TV were not clear to hear. Purchased the JBL 3.1-Channel Soundbar System with 10" Wireless Subwoofer and Digital Amplifier because it has a center speaker. The sound is very good and conversations are clear to hear thanks to the center speaker. Bass is very good. The only problem we have experienced is when changing the TV station sometimes there is no sound. Issue occurs using both the HDMI connection and the Optical Audio connection. But switching the channel back again one or more times corrects the problem. We have also used the wireless connection to connect to an iPod. The wireless connection is easy and the sound is good.

    This JBL Surround sound is the best. I hate that I have neighbors. It was a easy hookup for me. The sound quality is better than my Onkyo system I have. I’m buying another one

    Easy setup and simple adjustments. The volume controls are integral with cable remote controller. With Bluetooth Sub, can movie it anywhere. The sub intensity is easily adjusted. It is compact as well.

    This is a great system with lots of bass. It literally took 5 minutes to set up and everything worked right out of the box. Subwoofer automatically connected via Bluetooth. Sounds like a movie theatre in my house now. Love it!

    The soundbar at this price point is on par with others. It’s adequate. The subwoofer, however, is what makes this bundle such a great deal. The bass that this subwoofer throws out is deep and amazing. Like, close your eyes and smile in pure bass bliss, amazing. Setup took just minutes and again the subwoofer, the star off the show, automatically connected to the soundbar and works right out of the box. One little nit though, the soundbar goes into standby mode really fast and there’s no way that I’ve found to keep it “on”. Annoying, yes, but if you can tolerate that, the subwoofer more than makes up for this as far as the value is concerned for the whole. I also wish we could connect it to WiFi for over the air updates. I definitely recommend it and would buy it again.

    Best sound bar and sub around.

    This thing is amazing compared to other more expensive units. JBL outdid themselves with the 10" sub compared to others with an 8" or no sub at all. Sound clarity is good but to make it better use the eq on your phone or whatever is hooked up to it. Room shaking bass and crystal clear Highs. Need to keep the bass around 20 on the sub if you crank the bass up along with volume expect it to go into protect mode. Especially if listening to hip hop or other bass filled music. Gaming and movies it works awesome and has good clarity and room filling sound. Make sure the port to the sub is facing a corner or wall and is placed front of you. Not behind or to the side for best results. Highly recommend this unit to anyone looking for a killer soundbar/sub combo.

    I purchased this sound bar for my mother on law and she loves it. It was very easy to connect and she is able to use it with ease. We connected an optical cable from her smart tv to the sound bar and it sound so great using Netflix and hulu!

    I was not sure how a sound bar would sound, but was very impressed with this one. Great sound and easy to set up. I’ll probably tie in sound wireless speakers with this to get true surround
