Pros and cons

According to our soundbar expert

Thanks to the powerful bass from the subwoofer, movies and series have more depth and sound more realistic.
With Virtual Dolby Atmos, you’ll enjoy more immersive sound, so movies and series sound more realistic.
Thanks to voice enhancement, voices sound clear and crisp, so you can understand every word.
Without rear speakers, you won’t surround yourself with sound and you won’t get fully immersed in movies and series.
The surround sound with Virtual Dolby Atmos sounds less realistic than with True Dolby Atmos.

Description

Enjoy deep bass during movies with the JBL Bar 500 M2. This soundbar with a subwoofer gives your audio extra depth, so your movies and series sound more lively. Thanks to Virtual Dolby Atmos, you can hear sound from above and from the sides. This makes everything sound more spacious. Voice enhancement makes sure you hear voices clearly.

Beautiful product

I'm absolutely thrilled with this soundbar and subwoofer. I did have to look up the exact connection beforehand when you also have a media box from your TV provider, but once I figured it out, hooking it up was a breeze. My TV automatically recognized the sound system, and I didn't need to do any additional configuration to get the most out of it. The sound is beautiful and full. This soundbar and woofer also excel in its simplicity; no fancy displays or unnecessary buttons, just the bare essentials.
