Would not by again
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would have to admit the speaker sounded really good and it wasn't to hard to set up but it died after a little over a year just disappointed for what it cost and it didn't last very long

Seems good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use it in my basement which has terrible acoustics and lots of noise with the heater/air conditioner and humidifiers/dehumidifiers so I dont need fancy extras I just need it to be loud enough to here and it is.

JBL Soundbar and Subwoofer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the soundbar and subwoofer. It improved our tv experience. It’s pricey but well worth it if you can find it on sale. The bass is solid in my opinion. I recommend it.

Sounds decent, but no bass or treble control
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sounds good with plenty of bass. Very easy setup, very easy to mount it to the wall. I just don't like the fact that there is way way to control the bass and treble of the actual sound bar. You can turn up and down the subwoofer, but you can't control the treble on the sound bar. When listening to music I can totally tell the high end is muffled because you can't control the treble or bass at all.

Best bass for price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar probably has the best bass for its price. Recommended for small to medium sized rooms. It is nice that the sound bar came with a wall mount.

Great sound!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had purchased another device that made the sound very "tinny" and wouldn't keep the sound synched. This purchase has corrected both of those issues. The sound is phenomenal!

Best investment
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is absolutely fantastic. It was a major upgrade than going tv speakers alone! I had to buy a Digital audio cable (around $6) to get it to work with my tv!

Audio is not clean
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to return it as the audio was not constantly clean which is nos acceptable at all. Very frequently a noise is heard like an interference. I powered off the router to prevent interference; powered off the TV and tried Bluetooth without HDMI (ARC) and optical ports connected (Bluetooth even worse); tried HDMI and optical ports separate and got no luck. I had tried other two sound bars from Bose with same portS (HDMI, optical and Bluetooth) and the sound is totally clean. This confirms that the issue is with the JBL system. The base is great though, but I can’t stand a not clean audio.
