Crisp Clear booming sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound-bar is a definitely the best sound bar I heard in this price range the bass is so clear and punchy when it needs to the soundbar is crystal clear and the surround sound is decent but the true surround kit is always going to sound better It was super easy to set up out of the box with a app JBL Bar Setup it was super simple it automatically finds the bar and then let you choose a name which for some reason didn’t apply for me so I had to manually change it later which was confusing but once you got it connected to your wifi it up and ready to go and yes you can use this without the smart features and without wifi Which is awesome especially nowadays everyone trying to make you use their services to use their product but I’m little annoyed it didn’t come with optical cable but it comes with hdmi e arc The The sound when your playing games the sub really punches on high volume it shakes the whole house and you can feel it in the chest when you are shooting a gun The soundbar is super bright sounding making it like movies vocal stand out and like mechanical sounds and cars flying by sound so good and with the smart surround you can hear the car around you

Wide and Low
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been looking for the teen kids something in the playroom. After returning the Sonos Ray and Vizio M213ad-k8 I knew that I was going to have to get something with a subwoofer and this JBL had all the checks. It’s night and day at what a little more low end can bring to the table and the fact that the JBL is a few more inches wider and seems to throw out a much larger listening environment. It’s not as good as my true 5.2.2 media room but overall I have enjoyed the sound quality of the JBL .

Great sound quality + bass!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had my eye on the 5.1 soundbar & wireless subwoofer for a while now and I couldn't be more impressed with the sound quality this system has. I was really surprised that there was a sound configuration setup so that the soundbar could adapt to the room/setup it sits in. I would say that this system could be just a little louder, but that's when we're watching a virtual concert. We have the volume above average level for music and TV and sound is perfect. Bass out of the subwoofer is absolutely amazing when playing music. I personally love a loud bass and only keep the bass level on a 3 (out of 5!).

Should have bought soundbar a long time ago!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This setup is just what I needed for my living room. The LG tv I have struggled with sound at 100% on a lot of movies/shows. Haven't needed to turn this to 100 for any reason other than music with the kiddo's! Great value and wish I hadn't wen't years without one. My surround sound in my basement theater honestly doesnt have much over this setup, I don't understand how they do it!

My first soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not a pro on audio but always enjoyed good speaker and subwoofers on my car. I got it on discount for $270 is a great deal. Just remember is a sound bar and don’t expect too much of it, as feature my only complaint will be that you can EQ the sound. Other than that I love it so far. Subwoofer been a 10’ is enought to feel those lower sound. The sound bar it self is okay, 10times better the tv speaker for sure. I also like that it turn off and on with the tv remote as well controlling the volume (samsung tv).

Solid Sound Production and Durable
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hesitating between the 3.1 and the 2019 model which is the 5.1. I finally went with the 5.1 because of the Chromecast and AirPlay capability, and I have no regrets. The setup is easy and quick; the wireless sub connected without hesitation, Bluetooth setup was a breeze and in no time I was putting the system through its paces. I have it connected to my TV through the HDMI ARC input and it works perfectly; coming in and out of standby whenever the TV is turned off and on. It also connects through wifi and it is Google Assistant friendly. The sound is clear and powerful. I keep it on 'smart mode' as the sound fits my taste. The bass from the sub is powerful and so solid: never boomy. The bass has 3 setting: from low to high. Mid setting is good for most programs, however on high the bass is perfect for movies. The remote is overly simplistic but it does the job. After 2 weeks, I've been enjoying this soundbar and I'm very impressed with the performance.
