Title: Fantastic upgrade for the average home
Review: Sound quality is great. Love the Dolby Surround/DTS/Atmos features, and the detachable wireless surround speakers are great. Wish they held a charge longer but theyâre easy to charge and the sound bar tells me when itâs time to plug them in. You can connect them to an outlet by usb-c cable or attach them to the sound bar to charge.I have a 60â Sony OLED tv on a low profile stand rather than the wall. The sound bar fully assembled (with surround speakers attached) will not fit in the space on the stand between the tv legs. Without the surround speakers attached, it fits great with a little extra room. So if I want to attach the surround speakers for charging I have to raise the soundbar off the stand while they charge. Not a huge deal, but know this is a really long soundbar (the entire system is 7.1 channels of great sound) so check your measurements if this applies to your setup as well. The soundbar can be wall mounted as well if you have a mounted tv if youâre looking for a clean- no component look. We have a cable box/DVR that isnât wireless so this is the best setup for us.The subwoofer is massive compared to my previous entertainment system, and it can put out some seriously massive sound. Super high quality base though (I mean, itâs a JBL which is known for high quality audio). Itâs great to listen to everything from tv to music, movies to games. Voices are clear even while powerful mids and lows are going off, and I donât need to even come close to maxing out the volume. No audio distortion at higher volumes either. Just clear audio. Love it. I live in an urban flat in a four-story walk up and none of my neighbors have commented on it being too loud.Switching between my tv and Bluetooth devices is super easy, as is adjusting the surround and subwoofer settings. All from the remote.The design is great. It looks high quality and has the weight youâd expect from high quality audio components. It has controls on the soundbar and the remote, and it can be controlled for volume with most tv remotes.I highly recommend this model. I think itâs worth the price to have high quality audio in your home.

Title: Awesome Sound!
Review: I upgraded to a flagship OLED tv with all the bells and whistles. I have been only using the tv speakers and it just was not good's enough. I shopped around for quite a while for an Atmos, DTS-X capable soundbar. I got hung up on reviews by mostly audiophiles and what was recommended was way out of my price range. I am not an audiophile so what sounds good to me is what matters since this will be in my living room. I love the sound this JBL Bar 1000 produces. My living room is not huge and my ceiling is standard height. Atmos and DTS-X envelope my room and draw me into the movie like never before. I hear things I have never heard before in movies I have seen many times. Twister 4k and Jurassic Park 4K blew me away. Voices are clear and all the sound effects of thunder, birds, T-Rex,s roar, rain and everything else bounce all around my room. I love the detachable rear speakers, the calibration option, the giant subwoofer and the app is very easy to use and helpful. Very easy to set up, looks sleek and has an excellent build quality. I got this soundbar refurbished at almost half off. It arrived in really good condition and it works great. My only complaint is that I canât turn the volume way up because it might tick off my neighbors. Maybe on a holiday weekend. Highly recommend.

Title: Sounds great
Review: Sounds great. Good surround, great music playback, easy setup. Phone app works great as well. Can't say much about the atmos because of the vaulted ceilings in my room.

Title: sound is good but doesn't connect well for me
Review: Vendor came through for me by shipping it free (Prime) with two day delivery. Bar sounds great with additional bass speaker. Satellite rear speakers are nice but aren't loud enough and charge does not last longâonly a few hours. Still I like them for my situation. Main complaint is that the bluetooth does not connect well at my place and that the speaker always wants to connect to the TV instead of my phone so its hard to watch TV and listen to music. I live out in the country so we donât have a home network with WiFi yet. Our ânetworkâ is our phone hotspots so this is part of the problem. Im sure it connects better with a real home network set up. Happy I spent the extra and got this soundbar overall.

Review: Excellent system. Itâs been years since Iâve owned a surround sound system and I forgot what an important role immersive sound makes for the viewing experience. For the price I paid Iâm very happy I bought this model. The dockable/rechargeable rear speakers are ingenious. Well done!

Review: Most things are working fine, the only problem is that Alexa MRM Is way too loud, making this feature useless because I don't want to adjust the volume every time I ask Alexa to play music, since that would break the purpose of having a smart speaker. I wish it can be fixed, like having a separated volume for Alexa MRM.
