Pros and Cons

Pros3

Programing the remote for the pheanoo 2. Soundbar is pretty darn good. Connectivity is top notch, incl hdmi-arc.

The adjustable bass is great for those trying to be a polite wall sharer in apartments. My only real complaint is i wish there were more steps between whisper volume and screaming.

Subwoofer really kicks. This is without a doubt the best soundbar and subwoofer combo at this price point.

Cons3

Poor product quality and mediocre services. May return by a good brand and ditch this trash. If the seller/maker wants to contact me, i'm open to having my mind changed.

The subwoofer is disappointing. I highly doubt it was the bumping bass. The sub woofer can't even be heard unless you hold it to your ear.

Tried installing sound bar for two hours unsuccessfully. It appears to be going back into standby mode. The sound will pause long enough where i'll have to rewind my shoes.

Pros5

Bose tv speaker with bt and hdmi-arc, majority sierra 2. This sound bar is too good for 300 dollars. Most convenient if you're using the arc feature where you can use your tv remote to control the sound bar volume.

Nice and loud, but not muffled. Gaming very good sound, music is where this thing shines.

Jbl is top notch. Specially at this price point. When it is on sales, it offers good value. Afterall, it is still better than 2.

Installation is fast and using the remote is simple. That download is important. Makes everything sync with little effort on your part. All settings sync once you open the app.

Cons4

The sound is muffled and the base is so muddy. The woofer is huge but such a muddy bass and it's big size makes it hard to return. If this speaker isn't made made to be play loudly without busting, then why promote as such.

wifi disconnects itself randomly. Turning back takes a second which requires rewinding to hear missed dialogue. The sound beaks up intermittently which is annoying.

Amazon is getting my business, jbl/harman is not. Until then, beware. Very unhappy with this item.

What a wast f of time. That pains me as i'm a fan of jbl. It's that bad.
