Okay with the buy!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved this sound bar the bass holy crap it is impressive but that is the most it has. Bass not high or mids so your voice while watching tv is very low making you have to turn up the volume higher and the bass way low so it’s not distorted.

Good sound, bad setup
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I am pleased with this sound bar. It provides solid sound with great bass! The setup process however was painful. I still have not been able to connect to the JBL app, and have not successfully upgraded the firmware.

Wish I could connect more than 1 sub
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would give this a 5 star if it were able to connect to more than one sub... that being said the one sub that does come with it hits pretty hard. I have a large area the sound bar and sub are in and this was the best one that had out when I purchased it. Just disappointed I can’t buy wirelessly connect more of these awesome subs.

Perfect soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very good soundbar. I was checking for one to replace my lg soundbar. The sound is clear and crisp. Would recommend to anyone who want an inexoensive soundbar. Wait for good deals instead of spending $600.

Subwoofer randomly goes out
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and powerful bass but the subwoofer randomly goes out and it’s extremely frustrating. I read some reviews and it seems like this is common because of the WiFi router in the same area. I moved the router and the sub still goes out. Idk what else to do

Excellent sound!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We're "old" and still love the walls to shake every now and then. This soundbar has a very nice bass that is adjustable from low, medium or high. This replaced a very nice 6.1 amplifier we had for many, many years. We didn't think there was any way we would get this kind of sound from a soundbar.

Perfect fit. Not too fancy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far this is just what we were looking for!! The sound is decent...IDK if I am missing something yet, but I do wish there was a way to turn down the the sub speaker. I haven’t dug in to see if we can yet...but there are some shows that the sub is louder than I’d like! But overall a great price for good quality sound!

Excellent sound bar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar gives you the full effect of having speakers placed all around you. Great sound and bass for this system. I definitely would replace my original system that has mini speakers and sub with Yamaha receiver. The sound is just as good if not better and way easier to set up.

Easy set up
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you want to upgrade from you TV speakers without breaking the bank, give this unit a try. Not a lot of options with this unit, but it's easy to use and will upgrade your sound. 5 bass options are the extent of the options. Easy set up!
