According to our soundbar expert
If you want to fill large rooms with realistic sound, the JBL Bar 5.1 is just what you're looking for. This 5.1-channel soundbar and subwoofer have a total power output of 510 watts, guaranteeing clear sound with deep bass tones. The soundbar features 2 wireless speakers that you can also use as separate rear speakers to enjoy realistic surround sound. These speakers are battery powered, so you don't have to plug them into a socket. Do you want to listen to music? Simply link a smartphone or tablet to the soundbar via Bluetooth. The soundbar is compatible with most modern remote controls, which means you'll only need 1 remote control for your TV and soundbar.
Connecting the JBL Bar 5.1 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.

The JBL 5.1 bar is definitely recommended. I'm not a sound nerd... but I do like good sound. This set has not disappointed me yet. Sound is clean and the sub is more than adequate. At its loudest the front door vibrates out and at its quietest you hear nothing at all. Super easy manual and remote control.
For some it can be a problem that the bar can't connect to Wifi. For me this is not really a problem. Just Bluetooth and play.
I also think the design is a plus. It all feels solid and looks well finished. If you have the separate speaker in your hand, it is also really solid and heavy. There is also a good magnet in it so if you want you can also stick it against your fridge. Not really practical, but nice.

Super happy with it! Listen to different soundbars in the media market and then you do hear a difference between these and a really good and expensive soundbar, but that is in a large room. Space like a living room, this one is perfect! We can't even enjoy it optimally, because the neighbors also enjoy (or don't enjoy) the subwoofer.
