Why not just put a few extra buttons on the remote rather than all this "hold X down for 4 seconds, then press Y, then balance the remote on your head, then solve Fermat's theorem, followed by up on the volume button". Absolutely ridiculous.

i love jbl products.... it's sound quality is mama mia....i have to buy more jbl stuff in the future

[EljoMorpurgo]

So I connected the jbl to my Sony bravia eARC and after 10 min it drops in standby for no reason. How to solve this.?

[explok]

Night is not really working with the box.
Please update the box with a dialogue enhancer. Often the sound effects are too loud and dialogues to quiet.
I have the newest firmware installed from
the website.
Also why don’t you tell something about night mode? You can turn it on/off with holding “mute” 4 seconds and pressing “-“ after that.

Would it have killed you to just include a few more buttons on the remote? What is with the cryptic button combos? Ridiculous. I can't get the bass menu to come up consistently no matter how I try it. (Manual says hold TV for 3 seconds, this video says 5). C'mon JBL, get it together!

[nisbet]

It's confusing that the button combos aren't even in the manual. I pressed mute for 3 seconds and the volume - and it turns on off night mode. Come. On JBL

Thanks to your video I bought one and I'm really enjoying it, thank you!
However, he keeps playing the network signal he creates from wifi even in stand-by. Is there a way to turn this off?

[dik-Beats]

when i watch tv the sound keeps cutting out and the soundbar shows pcm, is there any way to fix this??

[craigrome]

Cant get airplay to connect via WiFi with this soundbar. The soundbar is recognised as an unsecured network but does not appear as an Airplay speaker in iOS wifi settings. Anyone know why? I have literally tried everything, followed all of the manuals instructions and yes, all of my software is up to date.

[johnmossjr]

I'm having some serious lip sync issues with E ARC connected. The only way it fixes if when I move the audio output to pass through but if I put it on auto it's crazy is there any way to fix this

[vadimidavadim]

hello, how are you, I have a question: is it possible and how to add rear speakers to this system. i know there is an adapter airplay2 belkin

[asiong]

Anyone knows what is ADB? I was pressing and holding the Atmos button from the remote then press volume down and there's ADB on/off? What feature is this?

[crazyreefer]

The hdmi arc doesnt work for me even though my tv has it. All I wanted was for the sound bar to work with both my set top box and amazon fire stick. The sound would only come through with the set top box. Not really happy with the soundbar.

[dyetegz]

@JBL while watching in my laptop using the hdmi in option. the bar will suddendy turns off. is my unit defective?

[nshannkshishian]

I will buy it. 2 questions: how long is the HDMI cable that comes with it? and can it deliver the eARC signal efficiently? and what about the firmware update procedure via the lan cable? how and when it runs updates? thank you 😊

[martinho]

It claims that the multibeam soundbar can connect to wifi and the app. However, it cannot to both. Though there are a lot of comments (here and the app store) about this issue, JBL doesn't bother to respond.

[dvgemerden]

i allready have a 7.1 atmos setup. onkyo rz830 receiver. possible to connect the soundbar also to my receiver?

[cssplayer]

Is the multibeam calibration needed or can I leave the soundbar how it is out the box??

[eliazarperez]

Anyone know what does ADB mean? When you hold down the ATMOS button for about 5 sec and then click the volume down button it turns ADB on or off but idk what's that for

[keepinitbit]

Anyway to use this without suround I have funature blocking my TV from the sides in my bedroom
