    It sounds good but it is a bit bass heavy like it says on the box. For the price though i think its a good value. I wish there was a manual EQ to better balance the audio to my liking.

    Bought this on a black Friday deal and was not disappointed. Great quality audio for a relatively small speaker, tech wise. Super easy to setup and no complaints from me!

    Recently purchased when old subwoofer died. For the money spent, would say its a decent value as it exceeded expectations. My wife wanted a less complicated system than our old setup. Check I didnt want to spend a lot. Check We both wanted better sound from tv. Check It's not the setup for an audiophile, but an audiophile would expect to pay a lot more for their satisfaction. If I have one complaint(it's a minor one), it would be a lack of output dial on the sub so I don't boom the neighbors out.

    Solid speaker with some annoyances

    So overall, this speaker is solid but there are a few features (or lack of) that really bring down the score. Pros: Overall solid sound Subwoofer connects easily and doesn’t lose connection Easy setup Cons: You can only adjust the EQ to three presets and that’s it. Can’t adjust the highs, lows, or mids. Nothing, very annoying with how much it costs, you would think you would be able to adjust it Speaker has an auto-sleep feature that is triggered after 10 minutes if no sound is playing. This becomes really annoying because with CEC, my tv screen will go blank for a few seconds because it detects the speaker going to sleep. This may be my tv causing problems too but it would be nice if I could adjust or turn off this feature So I said the overall sound is solid, and it is but one thing I noticed was at peaks of some highs you get a bit of distortion of sorts. Most would probably not notice it but it is noticeable for me

    I have bought three in the past month. The first one was so good I bought two more. One was to replace a Sony bar which was awful compared to the JBL

    Great soundbar, bass is smooth and loud. Neighbors complained quickly. No way to adjust the bass level except turning the volume down or disconnecting the soundbar, that’s my least favorite thing. Sound quality great for the price.
