JBL BAR-500-MK2 5.1 sound bar

The JBL BAR-500-MK2 is a 5.1 channel sound bar system that includes a wireless 10 inch subwoofer. It is designed for home theatre enthusiasts who want immersive surround sound without the complexity of a traditional multi-speaker setup. The system delivers room-filling audio for movies, music and gaming. Setup is streamlined with HDMI eARC connectivity for a single-cable link to a compatible television.

Best for TV-centric systems.

This system suits viewers who want cinematic bass impact and clear dialogue from a compact main unit measuring 37 by 2.0 by 4.1 units. The included wall-mount brackets allow discreet placement below the screen. Buyers who need multi-room synchronisation, dedicated rear satellite speakers or a separate amplifier should look at alternative configurations. The single HDMI input limits direct connection of multiple high-bandwidth sources.

HDMI eARC with HDR10+ and Dolby Vision pass-through

The sound bar provides one HDMI input and one HDMI output with Enhanced Audio Return Channel support, compliant with HDCP 2.3. This connection passes HDR10+ and Dolby Vision video signals to the display while returning lossless audio formats from the TV. Optical, USB, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi inputs are also available for other sources. This HDMI specification is the key factor for compatibility with modern 4K televisions.

Questions about this item

Will the 10" wireless subwoofer pair automatically with my older TV's HDMI port?

The soundbar provides one HDMI input and one HDMI output with Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC) and HDCP 2.3, passing HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, while the 10" subwoofer connects wirelessly to the bar.

How can I confirm the 5.1 channel system is decoding Dolby Atmos correctly after setup?

Play Atmos content; the bar's five racetrack drivers, four 0.75" tweeters, and the 10" subwoofer covering 40 Hz to 20 kHz will render overhead and surround effects you can hear.

What cables and brackets come in the box for the 37" soundbar and 12.8" cube subwoofer?

Included are a remote with two batteries, one HDMI cable, two L-shape wall-mount brackets for the main bar, and a wall-mount template; no extra cables are required for basic TV connection.
