Pro Tip: the Downfire sub “Should” sound louder if you were to have a piece of wood that it sat on. Right now the sub fires or loads into your carpet, the carpet absorbs the bass. If the sub were to fire into a hard surface like a piece of wood it would give you more sound (bass) try it out and let us all know what you find out
Would Italian marble work for downfiring subwoofer ? My flooring is made of Italian marble.. Do I need to have a wooden piece under the sub or the isolation pads?
I am not 100% certain but I do believe the mesh screen (which is the majority of the unit) is actually metal, not plastic. You stated it was made from plastic which I think is only partly true. I own the same unit and it is a solid product for a great price
I ordered Yahama YAS 109 months ago without receive it yet. They want refund me with a JBL Cinema SB170 without add money. Is it a good choice or better to wait for Yahama YAS109?
Which JBL headphones you have cuz I got this $160 set and it was crap had to take it back to Best Buy I've actually had $30 Sony earphones that were better than those
How can i use this jbl 2.1 for videoke purposes despite there is no jack for microphone, ive been making my research a long time please help me how can i benefit on it, cause we like with my kids the sounds output Thank you in advance!
Just picked it up from back holiday weekend sale 149euro... Haven't set it up yet. . Sounds great on the headphone it self. Can't wait to set it all up
@@alfonsosanchezcamargo6715 It's sounds Great. The bass is room filling but not overwhelming. Surprisingly loud and clear audio from the speakers for it's smaller size. Bluetooth connections are quick and t stable
hey buddy. i watching ur video but i found out the sound from the speaker wasnt as clarity as you mentioned. i even tried using headphone or even phone but the sound quality from this speaker was rather shallow. pls advise?
what is different between soundbar and sound system ? what is the best sound speakers for my whole home i mean distributed speakers in every room that connects to each other and give you surrounded sound in every corner of the home ??
I use portable skeaper to listen to music and while I play games. Once volume is very low ... It cuts is self off untill louder sounds can be played. Does this sound bar do same thing? My BT speaker is also a JBL. Thanks
That sounds amazing. I'm between this and the vizo 2.1. Question does the subwoofer have sound coming out of it? I'm looking at placing this in my bedroom so I won't be able to place it behind me
Yes it does. But its very minimal. The sound from the tv you can hear in the subwoofer but its really to feel the low vibrations from the bass. I have the system & it bangs fr 🔊🔊🔊
Just hooked this up. My sub is on hardwood and I’m about 15’ from the way where my soundbar is mounted. Audio: No clear definition between highs and mids. I put a movie on and it was just cluttered noise. Improvement on tv speakers, but what isn’t? Very disappointed in the sound quality. Bass: The sub is disappointing too. Bass hits hard but oddly hard. As if their only goal with this system is to throw bass down your throat. Very distorted and not balanced well with the highs and mids. Just doesn’t balance well and sounds cheap. Returning mine. Looking at the Polk Signa S2. We shall see how it compares.
I have the last generation of this sound bar. The older one has modes for, standard,sports,movie,music and voice. Plus it has an additional mode for surround sound and a night mode. It looks like JBL eliminated allot of the modes with the new one and also made the remote smaller. To be honest surround sound and sports/movie modes are the best. The other modes aren't that good.
Turn off and turn on again. It will pair automatically. There is also a pair button at the back of the sub. If it's yellow it's not paired and white light indicates paired.
Great review. I have the same set but don't get any options for low,mid and high. Can you please suggest how to activate the presets. I have tried alot but not able to figure it out.
Even the cheapest soundbar,is better than this one! This is one big shit,no sound mode,no good sound,no soround,no nothing! I buy this shit,and i just throw my money out of window! Now is stay in bedroom for design! So no don,t buy this shit,you will get very disappointed!
@@holycow7174 yes. A lot of people say the highs are a little to much for the sub. I personally think it’s pretty well balanced but that’s just me. If you want, I can send you a video of what it sounds like. All I need is for your number.
Use optical audio if your TV has it. Then just use your HDMI inputs like normal. You will probably have to change the audio output in the settings on your TV.

Couldn't you just put it against the wall?
The bass is too loud

Good thing I have hardwood!
@@100rabhpradhanshould be good
Is there a good stand I can keep the subwoofer on? Something that’ll help with the bass.
Not that i know of, but putting it near a corner or beside wall helps. Or even behind of where you’d be sitting.

Hi. How's the dialogue and voices in this system as it has no centre channel? Are voices clear in tv shows and movies?
I am having issues with bluetooth connectivity.. Sometimes sound breaks like signal issues.. It was fine before but don't know what happened
You have to put the woofer down next to the speaker in order to hear it better
Looks so good..mostly minimalistic design..but the sub though ,,wish they made it atlst bass heavy like their 5.1 bar..
for just a 2.1 that sounded great in my headphones!!!

Check sonos speakers and soundbars
A sound system is similar to what a movie theaters uses. I only use JBL speakers. Most theaters use JBLs.
Hi. Is it the SB170 model? Thank you. Nice review✌
I use portable skeaper to listen to music and while I play games. Once volume is very low ... It cuts is self off untill louder sounds can be played. Does this sound bar do same thing? My BT speaker is also a JBL.
Thanks
Probably not because it's made for tv
Hello which is good jbl sb190, sont s350, samsung a550?

I’m considering this for my room. BTW, which Samsung TV model are you using in this video? Is this the TU7000? Thanks in advance!
did you get it ?
How do you connect the subwoofer wirelessly ? I don’t understand how to do it
You don't have to do anything. It pairs automatically or there is a button to do it manually. Uses 5 ghz wireless to connect which is built in.
Can anybody show me a video how to set it up? I unplug the cord the other day and it stop work in the sense of I don’t know how to connect it back
which is better? this or the Sony HT-S350?
Jbl
I bought a Sony NT5, what a weak horrible sounding POS!!! SONY Sucks!
Really regret buying the hts350...only 2yrs and already faulty. Never again buying Sony Disappointing

Hi Bro, did you get JBL 2.1 deep bass or updated version MK2?
I have the last generation of this sound bar. The older one has modes for, standard,sports,movie,music and voice. Plus it has an additional mode for surround sound and a night mode. It looks like JBL eliminated allot of the modes with the new one and also made the remote smaller. To be honest surround sound and sports/movie modes are the best. The other modes aren't that good.
May i know what type of jbl soundbar do you have ?
@@saidusman9250 BAR 2.1
@@RobertNES816 bar 2.1 deep bass?
How would you compare it to the TCL Alto soundbar?
That USB port had something like "Service Only" - So I guess it is not for playing music or video. You need to make that clear.
What you on about
Bro I felt the bass through my phone😂
@Cole Morrow and it will all sound the same if your hearing from your phone.
From 1 to 10 ? How do u rate the speakers?
I only got voice left and right not in the middle is my soundbar defect ?
Yes give it to me I'll repair
Which one is More bass
Partybox 100 or soundbar 2.1 ???
Soundbar any day
What size is your tv?
Hii man at first it did paired so simple but now is refusing to pair
Turn off and turn on again. It will pair automatically. There is also a pair button at the back of the sub. If it's yellow it's not paired and white light indicates paired.
Does the tv affect the sound quality produced by the soundbar?
Probably yes. The quality of the media output depends on it
Yes ALLOT. I used to have a Vizio Razor TV that had HORRIBLE audio output through optical input. My new Toshiba TV is night and day better.
What is the size of your TV? And how is the woofer connected?
Subwoofer is wireless, and i would guess it's a 65" tv maybe?
Great review. I have the same set but don't get any options for low,mid and high. Can you please suggest how to activate the presets. I have tried alot but not able to figure it out.
Your soundbar is already on the latest update that's why... The older update has that feature
It’s on the romote
How does it compare to Denon DHT-S316?
The Denon’s are on another level… I bought this JBL to replace a Denon I had that was AMAZING
I can't connect to TV .......could you please find me a solution for this?
How are you trying to connect?
Just use the included HDMI cable. Make sure you plug it on HDMI(eARC) port of your TV to the HDMI(ARC) OUT of this soundbar. Work for me.
good video nice demo.
no model number
you can adjust with ur phone
which model is this ?
Jbl 2.1 soundbar
Hey.. place subwoofer near to tv to get better sound...try once..I am sure u will like it
I do agree with you, he supposed to put them together
home theater price...?
30ᴋ
Brooo ths thing is amazing
Sound is clear
Even the cheapest soundbar,is better than this one!
This is one big shit,no sound mode,no good sound,no soround,no nothing!
I buy this shit,and i just throw my money out of window!
Now is stay in bedroom for design!
So no don,t buy this shit,you will get very disappointed!
Is it worth it. I'm looking soundbar for movie. Please anyone
very. i had it since christmas and i love it. I use it for music mostly and sometimes use it with my tv. i would recommend it
How about for movie? The dialogue is clear?

@@rodrigomoreno4837 i texted you
Der bestt jbl
I have the exact one but can’t figure out how to connect it to my 65 inch hisense tv so I only use it for Bluetooth music lol
That's what I'm worried about!
Use optical audio if your TV has it. Then just use your HDMI inputs like normal. You will probably have to change the audio output in the settings on your TV.
Just get an optical cable and connect it from the tv to the sound bar
waste of money my 2.1 deep bass not working company not solved still 2 months
