    Soundbar sounds amazing. Had it installed the same day I bought it and the family was thrilled with the clear sound.

    Amazing sound quality for the price. The 1300X is better but the 500 comes close at a fraction of the price. My only gripes are that the app is finicky and the Bluetooth connection seems weak.

    Bought this as a Christmas gift for my mother-in-law, and it exceeded her expectations. Her home is where everyone gathers to watch football games, and she was so pleased with it.

    Very easy to set up and provides a clear sound. Sub could be better but excels at voice quality. I would recommend it for general listening but not necessarily for movies.

    The sound really does fill the room from the 2 sources: soundbar beam and bass box. An excellent substitute for wiring a room with 5 separate speakers and a bass unit.

    Very powerful subwoofer but the soundbar itself lacks power, voices are not the same as other brands even with cheaper models. it also kept disconnecting from the JBL app

    This soundbar is good for the money. It functions adequately and is a definite upgrade over the built in speakers. I’m replacing a previous value brand bar and sub and this is definitely and upgrade.
