Great sound, nice bass
5 out of 5 stars
Great sound, nice bass
Sound is excellent, bass is full, no wireless lag that I can tell. there is adjustment from 1 to 5 for bass. If it's missing anything it is more adjustability, perfect for someone that doesn't want to mess with the settings. Easily connected with Bluetooth to everything I have tried. My TV is a 46" and it tucks away nicely below. I did get it on-sale for 40% off and honestly will probably buy another for my other TV if I see it on sale again. Worth every penny.

    I recently purchased the JBL Bar 5.1 Surround 550-Watt 5.1 Channel Soundbar with 10" Wireless Subwoofer, and let me tell you, it delivers an unbelievable audio experience with a lot of boom boom bass!

    The sound quality produced by this soundbar is simply outstanding. The clarity and crispness of the audio immerse you in a cinematic experience right in the comfort of your own home. The highs and mids are crystal clear, but the real star of the show is the subwoofer. It packs a punch with its deep, rumbling bass that adds a whole new dimension to your favorite movies, music, and games.

    Setting up the soundbar was a breeze, and the wireless subwoofer adds convenience by eliminating the need for extra cables. The wireless connection is reliable and seamless, ensuring that you can place the subwoofer anywhere in the room to achieve the optimal bass effect.

    The JBL Bar 5.1 Surround also offers true surround sound, thanks to its 5.1 channel configuration. The rear speakers provide an immersive audio experience, making you feel like you're right in the middle of the action. It's perfect for movie nights or gaming sessions, where you want to feel fully immersed in the audio.

    One feature that truly impressed me is the ease of control. The soundbar comes with a handy remote that allows you to adjust the settings, including the bass level, to suit your preferences. You can fine-tune the boom boom bass to your liking, whether you want it to be thunderous or more subtle.

    In conclusion, if you're looking for a soundbar that delivers mind-blowing audio with a lot of boom boom bass, the JBL Bar 5.1 Surround is an absolute winner. Its exceptional sound quality, wireless subwoofer, and true surround sound capabilities make it a must-have for any audio enthusiast. Get ready to be blown away by the immersive experience this soundbar provides!

    I was in the market for sound bar with Dolby Atmos feature. After listening to a bunch of systems In Best Buy I concluded a system with good Atmos function costs $2k plus. For that kind of money you can get a proper home theatre but due to not available enough space I didn’t want to get one of those so I gave up the Atmos feature. I came across this system in 鶹 during a promotion and ordered assuming just trying and returning as the price was very appealing ($499). The system arrived and I plugged it in and streamed a Dolby content from youtune and guess what! We loved it! It’s amazing. This JBL sounds better than all the SONYs and Samsungs that I had tried before. There is good clarity and base at all levels which separates it from the others. It delivers ok job when used for music but it really shines when watching movie and series. The base is deep and reach at all volumes and it shakes our house! Also vocals are clear irrespective to the content. The sound is very cinema like (90% of the theatre’s sounds systems are JBL). We have been using this unit for 3 months now and we are really enjoying it and I am very happy with purchase. 100% recommended. It’s worth every penny.

    My first criteria for a sound bar was that it needed Chromecast compatibility. The JBL 5.1 Surround got this covered, as well as HDMI in and out (but not pass through), optical and Bluetooth. I got it for black Friday so it was also fairly cheaper. I was shocked by the size of the subwoofer, but it fits in my living room so nothing to bother with, just read the full specs before buying to make sure you avoid bad surprises. When hooked on HDMI or optical, the sound quality is impressive even at max bass level. On Bluetooth it's okay for your everyday TV experience but the difference is noticeable. The integrated Chromecast is fine for listening music from your phone without having to stay in range of your sound bar. There are also no sound presets on this model so you have to adjust the bass and volume according to what you are listening. Overall I am satisfied with it, but I don't think it's worth the regular price.

    Put this sound bar and sub into the family room. Tremendous value for money.
    Sound quality is very good and the bass provided by the sub woofer is perfectly aligned with the sound from the bar. The fact that the sub is wireless and only needs a power supply makes placement easy.

    One thing to note that does not affect the quality of the product. The sound bar is 2 1/4 inches high and will probably cover the remote sensor for the tv if it’s placed on the media stand directly in front of the tv. If you are not wall-mounting the tv then you will probably need to lift the tv up or sit on the couch with your arm up in the air to turn the tv on/off!!

    If you want an amazing Soundbar for less than $1000, then the JBL 5.1 definitely should be one of your top contenders.

    It has great connectivity: Native Spotify, AirPlay 2, and Bluetooth meaning no matter which device we’re using it has a way to connect.

    It’s sound is phenomenal. The speakers really add a lot of life to big movie or game scenes. We have the bass set to 2/5 just because anything higher than 3 is overkill.

    Somehow, even though it’s just a long bar in front of my TV, somehow, it makes sound come from all sorts of angles. I never thought a soundbar could play sounds that sound like they’re coming from behind me, but somehow the JBL 5.1 manages to pull it off. It actually has me looking behind me sometimes. Very impressive.

    The device itself and the subwoofer, they’re huge. Pretty big. Make sure they’ll fit in your living space if you’re space-conscious.

    Only quirk is I wish it had some sort of built-in voice booster so you could hear voices over action better, but you can’t place responsibility for that strictly on the bar itself. The remote control they give you is also a bit finicky but that’s easily worked around.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic sound bar
    Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2022
    Verified Purchase
    Firstly this sound bar is a killer soundbar at the price point (usually around $349 on sale in 鶹). 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 鶹 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…

    Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2022

    Not bad for the price. I had the older gen sonos playbar and sub. The playbar stopped working, which turned the sub into a $700 paperweight.

    Sonos has no repair program, and I"m not about to drop 1k for their newest sound bar. So i got this.

    How does it compare? Well... it kind of doesn't to be honest, but for the price its pretty freaking good!

    Pros:
    - You get a sound bar and a sub for $300!
    - It has bluetooth! (Sonos didn't). It also works with airplay through iPhone or Android.
    - Has a smart audio adjustment to tailor it to your room, which works great. Separation between voices and background music is pretty good, allowing you hear speech over explosions or music when watching movies.
    - 5 levels of bass
    - Doesn't need WiFi to work! (looking at you sonos)

    Cons:
    - Sound EQ could be better, the smart thing works okay but you have no control over it. But again, I had a working Sonos system right before this one so its not a fair comparison at all.

    If you are on a budget, you cannot do much better than this JBL for the price. Its seriously that good.
