    I rated the JBL good because of the setup. I had to call JBL and Sony for assistance. I ended up uninstalling everything on the Sony tv. Also, one morning the Unit would not come on. I will keep the Unit despite the initial setup. The JBL sounds better than the other units I purchased. Would recommend to purchase :)

    I had a 7.1 surround sound system with a Denon amp/receiver and some Boston Acoustics speakers and Sub. After remodeling my home, I wanted to change for something minimalist, and these were recommended by a friend. I AM NOT DISAPPOINTED! I strongly believe they sound SO much better than what I had, and take up less space. And the fact that there is NO need for cable routing or hanging is a BIG PLUS!

    Great sound for action movies like the new Top Gun. Had to turn the base down for the elvis movie difficult to here some of the words( might have been the movie). One quirk that is kind of a pain sometimes the rear speakers do not turn on even when fully charged you have to dock them to get them to work overall a great product.

    sounds amazing, was very skeptical a bout it being "9.1" with wireless rear surround speakers that you charge, but I needed a small soundbar to install in the living room where the TV is mounted above the fireplace, super easy to install, connected power to bar and woofer, plugged hdmi between tv and bar, sounds amazing with Disney + streaming dolby atmos movies, sounds just as good as my samsung dolby atmos system in the basement.

    Purchased March 6 2021 so I could replace my speakers I was hardwiring for my out door 12 x 7 projector screen. I needed something with good sound that would be easy to move out side and back Inside after the outdoor move night. It worked so well that on non-movie nights I decided to use this sound bar on my 75” tv in the living room. I was surprised how well it sounded outside. Also sounds great indoors Love it

    I've had this soundbar for a little over a month. It has a great sound when the detached speakers don't loose connection. I experienced this loss connection quite a few times during a movie. Great concept with the charging speakers, with no wires. I gave it 4 stars because of this and the price. If I had to do it all over again, I would have gone with the Sono Arc, and built the system.

    JBL - good sound but intermittent sound issues

    This soundbar is very easy to setup and my TV recognized it with ARC immediately. The settings for bass, surround, and Atmos are easy and basic (each have volume levels labeled 1-5). The detachable speakers work great, but the bar is kind of heavy and makes connecting/reconnecting a little difficult when the bar is positioned under a TV between TV stand legs. The sound is very good but the bar unpredictably stops producing sound for no discernable reason. I have owned this bar for about 2 weeks and it happens at least once every day. Sometimes it happens 4+ times within an hour which is very disruptive to watching TV, a movie, or anything you would use this sound bar for. Turning the bar off and on again or changing the input from HDMI to TV back to HDMI is the only way to get the bar to start working again. It is likely just a bad unit but I will be exchanging it for a SONOS ARC soon.

    I like this product like the wireless speakers that are charged by the front speaker. So you put them anywhere you want. The bass is very strong, but found out that some times the voices are drowned out by the music, just seems that the voices are lower than the the rest of the sounds coming out.

    Exactly what we wanted! Very easy to set up and has theater quality sound!! Sounds stage can be a little narrow at times, with our huge TV, but it is still a great system. Owned about a month, black friday purchase, and the battery life on the wireless speakers are still staying true to the 10hrs of constant use. Well worth the purchase!

    This is probably the best soundbar i ever had, I used to have a Sony 7.1 Speaker Receiver system. I would have to check each wire monthly. For some reason they always shake loose. On top of that, so much wire all over the room for 7 speakers. The phantom speaker side effect from the speakers sounds just as great.

    The truly wireless speakers were a great selling point. I however returned it because it just didn't have the sound quality I expected. It also didn't get very loud at all. I bought a Bose 900 with 700 bass module and wow it is amazing compared to the JBL.
