Posted .Thank you for your feedback. To isolate the issue with your JBL Bar 5.1 Surround, please try swapping the power cables between the sound bar and the subwoofer. If the issue persists, please contact us for further assistance.

Great for watching movies!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A lot of bang for the money! Strong bass and can’t really turn more than 50 to 60 percent volume in a medium sized room. Music performance is adequate but movies and TV is where this one shines.

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.

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.
