How to Choose a Soundbar System
Go beyond TV and movies when you add the Bar 500 590W 5.1-Channel Dolby Atmos Soundbar System from JBL to your living room. As a replacement for your thin, built-in TV speakers, the Bar 500 delivers 590W of power and chest-thumping bass through seven integrated drivers and a dedicated wireless 10″ subwoofer. As a home theater solution, the Bar 500 uses Multibeam and Dolby Atmos technology to deliver immersive 3D surround sound for your movies and TV.
Audio playback can be handled in a variety of ways. Dual-band Wi-Fi offers support for AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music (MRM), and Chromecast built-in, letting you stream from hundreds of services for music, podcasts, and internet radio. You can also choose to stream from a mobile device via Bluetooth, or plug in an (optional) USB drive for MP3 playback.
