According to our soundbar expert
With the JBL Bar Studio, you can give your television audio an extra boost. The soundbar features a double bass port and virtual surround sound. This means you'll be able to enjoy a deep bass and have sound effects directed towards you from all corners of the room. Do you want to listen to your favorite music? Simply connect a device that you've stored music on to the soundbar via the USB port, AUX port, or Bluetooth. If you connect the soundbar to your TV with the optical cable, you'll be able to control it with your smartphone or the TV's remote control.
Connecting the JBL Bar Studio to your TV
Use the included optical or HDMI cable to connect your soundbar to your television. Keep in mind that your TV needs an optical connector to use the soundbar. We recommend HDMI arc cable.

After reading many (positive) reviews about this soundbar, I went for the Black Friday offer. Connecting was no problem and the sound is remarkably better than what comes standard from our Sony TV (from 2011), more detail, more highs and more lows, but no wow effect, just what it should have been in the first place. I mounted the soundbar under the TV, and hung the power supply with some colson straps behind the TV so that no wires are visible. You actually no longer have any work with it via the HDMI connector with ARC on the TV, the soundbar switches on/off automatically and sound is also controlled via the TV, I almost never use the remote. Every now and then we have a small interruption (1s) in the sound, every time the TV is on for about fifteen minutes. not really disturbing, just for your information. At times when you are not watching TV, you can connect the soundbar with Bluetooth to your phone and use it for example. listening to music, the soundbar really falls short for music, but that is not a breaking point for us.

He's not bad. But for an apartment. I wouldn't recommend it if you want a lot of power. But for an apartment it is sufficient without scaring your neighbors out of bed. All in all, it contributes to a better sound experience from your TV.
