Sounds awesome... when it worked. Bought this in January of 2018 for my garage gym. I used the Bluetooth pairing and controlled the sound with my phone and music streaming service. Based on sound alone, I would rate the product 4-5 stars. However, after 6 months, the sound bar decided to stop working. Won’t even turn on. Really bummed because I really liked it. :( I’ll update the review based on the return/ exchange warranty support.
UPDATE: JBL was awesome! Sent me a box and label to return the defective system. Then, after discovering it was a fluke/ defect, they sent me a new system under warranty. Have had zero issues with the new sound bar and it does a great job as my home gym sound system.

I have a fair small room, so this is perfect. The bass really can handle a good amount of depth. I'm impressed with this!

A sigh of relief...

It's been maybe 5 hours with this soundbar. I hooked it up immediately. It plays bluetooth music from my phone beautifully. And so far, movies sounds fantastic. I am still playing with settings to hear what I like most. Sometimes surround is nice and other times it comes off pointless.By R Night on January 19, 2020
