Unless you’re a serious audiophile who wants a true surround sound system, the JBL Bar 5.1 is more than enough to upgrade your home theater. Besides being very affordable (especially with the current discount), the soundbar system is powerful, compact, and very easy to install.
Even before the discount, the 5.1 Bar was a great deal. With 550 watts of total power and a 10-inch subwoofer included, the system is powerful enough to deliver balanced theater sound to the home. The woofer offers rumbling, full bass frequencies, while the soundbar delivers clear, crisp highs from a pair of side-mounted tweeters and five long-excursion drivers.
These soundbar speakers create “virtual surround sound” by reflecting off the walls and ceiling, allowing you to get room-filling sound without having to install a set of tweeters throughout the room. When you set up the system, the soundbar uses a built-in microphone to calibrate its sound projection to the layout of your living room or room.

The 10-inch subwoofer, meanwhile, adds a powerful low-frequency dimension with its own built-in 300-watt amplifier. Best of all, the woofer connects to the soundbar wirelessly, which means one less cable to deal with.
Connectivity with the JBL bar is also excellent. With 4K video pass-through, you can connect one HDMI cable from your video source to the sound bar and another from the sound bar to the TV without losing video quality. The soundbar also has built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, as well as Chromecast and AirPlay 2 compatibility, so you can stream videos wirelessly through the bar.
If you need a home theater upgrade, take advantage of this offer and buy the JBL 5.1 sound bar while it’s still on sale.
