    • Fantastic sound bar
Style: Bar 5.1
Firstly this sound bar is a killer soundbar at the price point (usually around $349 on sale in Amazon). It’s hard to find a good 5.1 soundbar with good subwoofer at this price. I got this on prime early access deal (2nd prime day) for $288, and it was a no brainer at this price! Without prime sale, it’s usually around 299-349, still a great price. Now let’s talk sound quality: I watched Andrew Robinson’s review about this sound bar (please watch it, it’s the only good technical review available from a proven audiophile YouTuber). He praised it well and recommended it and called it the budget sound bar king, even better than the klipsch 600. I was waiting for prime day sale to buy it… Once I got it in, set up was simple. For all iOS users, download the “JBL Bar set up” app, to add the sound bar to Wi-Fi. It’s very simple that way! Subwoofer was pre paired (it should be from factory, don’t know why some people are saying it was not paired!! But it’s easy to pair). Connected the tv input (Sony x900f for me) and it was up and running. Next make sure to do the calibration, it steps up the sound quality considerably. I made sure “smart mode” was “on”, this mode applies JBL sound processing and smartly and effectively turns any stereo input to 5.1 I was surprised! The smart mode actually sounds very good, it widens the sound stage, and you actually feel the surround sound effect. For my room, I actually get the bouncing effect from the side firing tweeters pretty well, nevertheless, sound stage is pretty wide, and you won’t feel like listening to a 2.1 channel sound. Bass was adequate, I tried between 3 and 4, ended up at 3 since it’s pretty balanced there. The sound bar has 5 front firing full range drivers, no tweeter pairs, but I was surprised: there was good and clear treble in the sound and midrange was also very manageable (clear). Dialogues are nice and clear and clearly seems like it comes from the center driver (mimicking the center channel), even at Smart mode ON. People complain that there are no adjustment options, to be honest you don’t need any! Bass can be adjusted from 1-5, and that’s all you need. The eq settings are nicely tuned from factory and to be very honest, I don’t feel like I have to make any changes. I do own a full Sonos Arc set up (5.2.2) and feel like this JBL bar is pretty good at what it does: providing simple 5.1 sound at a reasonable price without offering gimmick features. I also heard people complaining about longevity, so I also got the 3 year plan from Amazon for $33, totally worth it! Peace of mind. Recommend everyone getting it cause you never know when electronics fail. $33 is a bargain. I ordered the soundbar 600 before, returned it cause it clearly sounded a 2.1 sound bar even with surround option “on” and loudness was not adequate. This JBL, which is cheaper, sounds day and night better and I love it! It’s nice and loud, sound stage is wide, and everything is perfectly pre tuned from factory. To sum up, don’t read the negatives, no one can guarantee you anything when it comes to electronics. The sound bar is actually very good, and you won’t be disappointed. But do recommend the 3 year plan ($33), for peace of mind. Even with the added pan, total price is very good and lower than other gimmick sound bars… great job JBL, and thanks Andrew Robinson for an honest video! Check his review out, you will get the real picture… ... show more

It’s truly a game-changer for anyone looking to elevate their audio experience at home. Highly recommended! ... show more

    • Solid, simple TV audio upgrade... but slightly underwhelmed by audio (thoughts vs. mini system)
Style: Bar 5.0
For my main TV, I had been using an old Onkyo mini receiver, with DaytonB652 bookshelf speakers. I really liked the sound of this system, but it did make for a pretty cluttered TV stand. So, I grabbed this sound bar when I saw it on Vine. So far, I'm fairly impressed with this bar, though the sound quality has been slightly underwhelming (more on that later.) Installation: Quite simple! Plug in power, plug in the optical cable, and you're essentially set! If you want to get fancy, there is more to do, and the manual is okay at guiding you through it. I will mention here that controlling the tone (equalizer) settings seems tough? You have to install an app, I think(?) unless I'm just not seeing the way to do it onboard? I got it to work through the Alexa app (after a few tries) and it works okay (just simple bass/treble/mid). Look: Looks nice! Very clean/modern. LCD display is inobtrusive yet functional. I guess I would have appreciated a wider LCD screen, so there was less scrolling with longer messages. I also like the streamlined remote. Bluetooth: Works great! This was a nice feature that my old system did not have. I can connect my phone directly to the speaker with ease. Sound: This is where I was a little surprised. I always liked the audio of my old mini system, but I still expected this to be an upgrade; it was in some ways, maybe not in others. Now, the bass is CLEARLY an upgrade - it's pretty clean and punchy for such a small package. Not the same as a big old dedicated sub, but nice! On the other hand... the mids/highs seem a little muted/muddy, IMHO. I realize that the Daytons are great speakers, but still, I thought a soundbar of this price would be on par with these cheap bookshelf speakers and a 25-year-old mini receiver... not necessarily. Maybe I just need to tweak it more - I can update if I find the sweet spot that brings up the quality. All this said, the sound certainly isn't bad, just not quite as crisp/clear as I'd like. If you're upgrading from just the TV's built-in audio, you'll be VERY impressed, I'm SURE of that! Overall, this is a solid sound bar and certainly a nice upgrade from your TV's built-in sound, especially for bass-heavy movies and the like. However... if you're a tinkerer/Craigslist-pro, and don't mind a much more cluttered footprint with way more wiring, you might be able to get even better results (besides the bass) with an old, high-quality mini-receiver and a set of Dayton B652s, for maybe 1/3 the price. But that's not for everybody! Recommended, with some slight reservations! ... show more

I bought it for the price and always wanted one. I wanted the bose sound system so bad, but one day i ran into this one in a store. It caught my attention and sounded really good. One day saw it for a really great price and man in my living room i cant get it past 20 volume cause its so loud. I could only imagine how high and better this thing can go. Built well and sound with that bass woofer is out of this world. Plus bluetooth is an amazing thing and don't have to fight with wires to install. ... show more

    • Great quality sound from Harman/JBL soundbar
Style: Bar 5.0
Excellent sound, crispy voice, great bass and surround sound; it sounds better than my $1500 professional HK sound system and only paid $300. JBL is a great bar for my bedroom TV.
