Customer Ratings & Reviews

My husband and I just LOVE the sound. The soundbar and the subwoofer really make a difference compared to our other sound systems we’ve had in the past!!! It’s like being in a movie theater watching a movie it’s got such clear crisp sound and it is such an amazing experience to have such a great sound system!!! I would definitely recommend it to anyone asking!!!

The product has excellent sound,durable and satisfying!!!Feels like a lot of speakers but its only the bar and woofer,and i would definitely recommend buying if you're looking fir concert sound

Absolutely the best soundbar I've ever had. The bass is incredible, and the surround sound is solid. Very reasonable price point as well at less than $400. Highly recommend!!

Awesome sound that file tthe room.as if you had a fuil 5.1 system. For a fraction of the price. Plenty of Bass from the sun no matter the placenta in the room. And and set up is a breeze with the JBL one app

Excellent value! I got it on sale for $299. Fantastic bass with the 10" sub and the soundbar itself is very loud. Use the App to tweak it. The low end will hit 32hz and this system will vibrate your walls making things rattle. It leans on the punchy side, but still hits the low lows. Like I said adjust the EQ in the app to hit the sweet spot for you. Great for movies, music, and house parties. The virtual Atmos I can't really say much on, but the side speakers bouncing off the walls creates an awesome surround experience.

Best Soundbar w/ sub for the price. I recently purchased Samsung and Polk and the jbl bar 500 is the best. I was hesitant from purchase initially because of people saying the bass isint enough but once you install the app you can increase it and it’s more than enough. I’m impressed!

So had a smasung soundbar Q600 i think was the model number. Well ended up going out, within a year of purchase. The subwoofer started popping bad. Saw this on sale and had to jump on it. The calibration it has is amazing. The first time hearing it, i could believe how crisp and clear the sound was. Adjust your bass... knocked my display set off going all out loo. Great sound great connection. So glad went with this option instead.

I like the quality of the sound, great surround. I dont like that it doesn't have smalker speaker to get the full effect. I have this on my back patio and it feels like we at the movie theater. I have a spa, andcwould to have speakers above or around the spa. That would be the caje topper.

Great for the money we paid. Open Box deal. Hooks up to the network and allows basic equalizer settings. HDMI ARC and CEC work fine. TV remote powers on / off and controls volume without fail. The sound quality if better than average. It’s slightly clearer than the bar 300 we tried, the sub offers more Bass and exciting sound. However for a typical bedroom to add just TV intelligibility and volume could see most being very happy with the Bar300. If gaming or a more cinematic experience is preferred I’d definitely go Bar 500 or better. It’s our new Master bedroom set up.

Bought a Sonos and returned it the next day to purchase this JBL. I’m so glad we did and we love it! It’s perfect for our living room and needs. Also my old self was actually able to learn the functions immediately.

i bought this Speaker for my father for fathers day and it was a perfect gift, he loved it, a high quality speaker for a good price, would recommend

I have tried a few different sound bars with speakers/subs and generally they are not very good when it comes to quality and sound. This JBL is just different it is amazing ! Sound Quality is amazing and the Sub is very powerful you can get home theater quality from this product. Even at low volume this system pumps ! you wont find a sound bar on the market that can compare to this trust me. Super happy with this product and will be buying JBL for future audio upgrades that is for sure !

I had purchased another system but returned it. The sales associate recommended the JBL 500. Easy setup and great bass that I wanted. Love the wireless subwoofer. The app connected right away.

The sound bar and subwoofer are absolutely amazing. The sound quality is crystal clear and it makes your TV/movie experience so much more enjoyable. The subwoofer is so powerful that I could feel the ground shake whenever there's a bang or a loud rumble would definitely recommend 10 out of 10.

Great sound quality! Full home theater feel, deep bass. 1 disadvantage, when many devices are connected, there are disconnections.

Works wonderfully. Easy setup. Sound is perfect. Would readily recommend to anyone looking for a good yet economical sound system.

This is by far the best Sound bar I've owned! Love it. The sound is incredible! The bass it provides is even more amazing and is what sold me on this set! JBL has already been a great sound product and this lives up to JBL quality and name! Movies with a lot of action come to life when the sound actually vibrates you from your couch!!

I’ve recently integrated the JBL BAR 500 5.1ch Soundbar with Multibeam and Dolby Atmos into my home setup and found it to be a solid choice for its price. The soundbar delivers an improvement in audio quality that’s noticeable, especially when compared to the built-in speakers of a standard TV. The bass is substantial enough to enrich the sound without dominating it, and the overall audio quality is clear and balanced.

Went to the store to see and hesr this soundbar in person, and while the emplyee played me that demo, it blew meeee away ! - got it black friday price for $349. But once I brought it home its much didferent from the store demo lol. if I could I would soens the extra and the the sonos ARC - now that thing is A BANGER, store demo and home use. If you can get this JBL for 349ish then yes purchase it,

Excellent product! I was a little hesitant at first! But it’s amazing! The setup is easy and contracting to the tv was super fast and easy! You can hear every sound that’s coming out! And I don’t even have to turn up all the volume there is! Feels like I’m in a movie theater! Sometimes when the movie is so intense I can feel a little vibrations coming out! 10/10
