    Really good sound from a smaller package. This JBL setup is a nice little setup for our family room. It's no powerhouse for extreme movie type sounds but works very well in our situation.

    Have the bigger brother (Bar500) of this soundbar in our main room and needed something for another room. Was hesitant because of the 5” woofer. Glad I got it! Impressive aound! Voice clarity button is nice for soft dialogue.

    I had a Sony Soundbar and I loved it. But, it was time to upgrade and the JBL Cinema Soundbar was the right choice thankfully. It sounds like I'm in the theater ...Awesome buy, Best Buy

    Sound is clear and bass is good for the small tv in the bedroom. Sound probably wouldn’t be as good in a large room like a living room with vaulted ceilings. But for a smaller living room the sound is good!

    Great audio quality. Sound bar is strong enough I can tell if it’s the sub or the bar half the time.

    This is a wonderful soundbar for the price point. While you are not able to control or change the levels, the overall quality of sound produced is balanced and does provide a nice bass and range.

    This would be my second JBL soundbar. Overall the bar sounds really good, but the subwoofer doesn't produce enough bass for my liking.

    Great unit, good sound, and looks nice. My room is probably too big for this set but other than that I am happy with it. If you have a large room you may want to look at the next model up.

    My personal experience was very good, and honestly, you should have your own. The staff was very professional and knowledgeable about the product, which I was unsure about purchasing.
