    There is one, just one, thing i would have added or changed to this system. The bass... it has some crazy bass (although it could be the location of the sub). Which is great, except at night. Lol. It's a bit too much. I wish the bass could be toggled a little. Otherwise, it sounds great, i havent heard distortion of lows, mids or highs. Stop reading this and go buy it. :)

    I am a huge JBL fan. I have always had great sound with most of what JBL has to offer and it is usually priced pretty good. This was prices REALLY low so I Jumped on it. You do get what you pay for. The sound is pretty good although I wish it was more crisp. The sub woofer sound given the small size but and the setup was very easy. I have a few settings to play around with to see if it can be better but overall it is decent for the price.

    Its a good soundbar. The subwoofer is the real star. Incredible bass and its wireless. Only issue so far is you cant control the bass volume.. just the soundbar, which is basic at best. The soundbar has alright sound, but it itself has little to no bass, and is easily drowned out by the bass itself. It can be hard to hear unless you crank it up, which then the bass is shaking the entire place.

    The JBL Cinema SB170 is a solid 2.1 channel soundbar system that punches above its weight for the price. With 220W of system power, Dolby Digital support, and a wireless subwoofer, it delivers crisp dialogue and deep bass that elevates movie nights and music sessions alike. Setup is a breeze thanks to HDMI ARC and Bluetooth connectivity, and the sleek design blends well with most home setups.

    I love, love, love this sound bar. I wasn't going to purchase it when I purchased my TV and the cashier recommended the sound bar. I have always wanted one and when I saw the brand was JBL, I knew it would be smart to get it as it was on sale. The installation was super easy and boy, does it make your movies, game playing sound ultra cool! It sounds as it you're in a theater. I highly recommend an JBL sound bar.

    I had a SONOS Beam as my main TV audio and decided to go with the cheaper option of this soundbar, instead of buying the subwoofer for the Beam. I am very happy with my purchase as this is more than enough for us. Sound is clear, bass is solid. Probably not the best audio out there, but for this price, this soundbar is exceeding my expectations. Would recommend if you are looking for a budget soundbar/subwoofer combo.

    This soundbar with wireless subwoofer has good sound though a little quiet. I wish it had a little more power and more bass. I usually have it turned all the way up for listening to music in the garage. It is loud enough for movies though.
