About this deal

However, if you are referring to the surround speakers, they should be charged to full in less than 3 hours and 10 hours of playtime. I have opted out to upgrade my soundsystem and since I live in a fairly small 1-room apartment, I decided to try out something more on the budget side of things and see how I like it. Easy sound calibration technology ensures you experience the best possible 3D surround sound effects unique to your room’s interior and layout. Includes: 1 x soundbar, 2x Detachable wireless surround speakers, 1 wireless subwoofer, Power cords, HDMI cable, 2x L-shape wall mount bracket.

With the Sound Calibration feature, the top-mounted microphones measure sound bounce to adjust the sound to the room conditions. BNPL is an interest bearing option that allows you to delay payments on your purchases for up to 12 months depending on how much you spend. The 500 is a newer model that offers better sound quality, with a better stereo soundstage and better stereo dynamics. A further trick, kickstarted by holding the Mute key for more than three seconds, lets you both turn off the bar’s ‘Smart Mode’, plus instigate a ‘Night Mode’. this soundbar doesn't use any satellite speakers and instead uses 'Multibeam' technology alongside discrete speakers in the bar itself to improve the bar's surround performance without satellites.If you want to improve this experience, we recommend upgrading to the top-of-the-line Bar 800, which already includes two full-range units with 2. With support for popular audio formats like Dolby Digital, you can enjoy many movies on various streaming services and Blu-rays.

It sounds entirely competent at low levels, but a little uninterested; go above ’20’ on JBL’s volume scale (which equated to around 80dB at my sofa), and its sound duly grows in scale and sense of attack.Make movie night soar and let your music move you to new heights with 720W of total output power and thrilling bass from the 10 subwoofers.

For our tests, we kept the smart mode off, which took away a touch of bass in the mix, resulting in a slightly mono sound. The balance was very satisfying, and immediately immersive, exactly as a good surround sound system should be. although as a Dolby Atmos/DTS:X model (with four upfiring drivers in total) those ‘extra speakers’ are more to be expected.

We would still suggest the Subwoofer to be near the Soundbar as possible to avoid wireless interference(audio cut offs,disconnection,etc. The Pure Voice technology aims to improve the clarity of the dialog and we can say that it is heard with good definition. It's mostly plastic in its design, and while it feels robust, the buttons and screen aren’t as slick as you’ll find on competitors like the Bose SoundTouch 300. Depending on your listening habits, you may prefer either the Denon Home Sound Bar 550 or the JBL Bar 5.
