Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent product, easy to set up, fast delivery, great customer service

I bought it for my sister for an early Christmas present. She loves it.

Quality sound for a reasonable price? i’ve heard better, but not for the price.

Wish the volume had numbers to allow the user to know the sound levels.

It’s jbl no need to say words plug N play with no experience

I got it for my grandson for Christmas he loves it.

Love my surround sound and the help fro The employees.

This is so amzing great voice quality great product

Feel good about it but not as expected the sound quality.

exellent brand of choice JBL ,customer service is great

Subwoofer constantly disconnects and is no way to manually reconnect. Just need to power on and off and hope. Absolute garbage

These good reviews are ridiculous and leads me to believe that I simply can not trust any reviews anywhere. Bought the LG SN6Y last year for the bedroom on my bus. I added the optional rears and was blown away by the sound. Good bass and articulate dialogue. Even sounded satisfactory for music, by which I was pleasantly surprised. (I am an audiophile btw. I have also owned many JBL products over the decades.) I bought another LG SN6Y open box to put in my mothers' bedroom at her house. However, the open box was missing the REMOTE! "Excellent" condition? No. The awesome Best Buy rep took good care of me and made me a spectacular deal on the JBL SB170, that he recommended. I got it home and hooked it up. Muddy sound and boomy bass. OK, no problem, I'll just lower the bass level and turn up the treble, right? WRONG!!! THERE ARE NO CONTROLS FOR ANYTHING!! Just a few EQ presets. This is unbelievable to me. Totally unacceptable. There are no tone controls available through the TV either. Boxed it right up and returned it. I've never experienced such a poorly thought-out product. Not to mention the poor audio quality. The LG I wanted was still unavailable so I gambled on the Vizio V51-H6... I was immediately impressed, not only by the sound quality but the overall design, materials, and build quality. Good job Vizio. Genuinely impressed. Total control over channel levels and tone btw. AS IT SHOULD BE! Don't buy the JBL SB170. It is comically bad.

garbagw item is not foods at all. using it is too much

I was not happy with is once i put it in our bedroom and hooked it up. The sound was ok but the bass flopped for me. Maybe im to critical? Either way i took it back and bought something nicer made by JBL

Sound is nothing special. My Sony TV sound is comparable. Loose Bluetooth connection with TV when TV is not active for some time, then TV trying to find it back, but it is off already. It's interfere not just sound, but YouTube videos start to jump from one to another. Connected my phone through Bluetooth: connection exist, sound don't. Save your money: buy Sony, Samsung or LG products

Only problem it has a “standby mode” that automatically turns off the bar after 10 minutes. No way to remove that feature. Have to manually turn it back on or turn your tv off and back on.

If you want to amplify your TV volume and make car chase scenes loud and things like this yep it's an okay sound bar. If you want to listen to music forget it my 1993 Ford as Better Sound than this sound bar. There's no high or lows just base I mean it just sounds really bad there's no other way to put it don't get it don't waste your money if you want to listen to music

Let me start by saying i love JBL and have several speakers. This particular setup is just not very good. No ARC (so 2 remotes or a universal), sound bar sounded muddled, and the subwoofer was not impressive. We ended up going with a Hisense soundbar and it sounds 100x better. We have a Sony setup in the living room and its amazing as well.

Sound was so so for the brand/price. Bass was not deep at all and there’s no option to turn up the bass. Was very disappointed and returned it back.

It wasn't what I expected u have to turn it up to hear the bass
