Great Soundbar For The Money
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Soundbar and subwoofer have great sound, volume and bass for the price. Gave mine 3 stars because I bought mine open-box in excellent condition, and the remote was missing when it arrived. Best Buy offered to do a return, but I didn’t want to go through the hassle. Unfortunately, JBL does not have the remote in stock and an aftermarket remote on Amazon is $40. Sellers have them used on eBay for $40 as well, Apparently, these remotes are a hot commodity.

Very nice upgrade.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice system for the price i got it at. For basic conversion from tv to home theater. Not worth retail but if you find it on sale its a very nice upgrade for apts or living room where you dont necessarily want to shake the house, but want more than tv speakers. Much better than the $200 options out there.

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.

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).
