    I got this on sale. The first one I had was rattling, so I had to exchange it for another one. I have not had any issues with the replacement! I love it! The bass shakes the house if you put it on the highest level! The Dolby Atmos is worth every penny!

    This sound bar is a bargain. Setup was very simple and the subwoofer connected automatically. I've read reviews from others saying they couldn't adjust the sound or couldn't hear voices appropriately. Evidently, they are the problem. I've had no such issues and will say its worth more than I paid for it. JBL hit a homerun with this one.
