My wife and I decided to get a new TV/sound bar system for our bedroom. A 32-inch TV is the right size for our room (we bought a Samsung 32N5300), and due to the layout of the room, we decided to get a floor-standing TV mount with castors (kind of a TV cart) that we could reposition for the various viewing areas of the room. We thought long and hard about improving the audio over that of the TV's speakers.We chose the JBL 2.0 sound bar. Here's why: it is compact and it looks good with the 32-inch TV, it is mountable on our TV cart using sound bar brackets (we bought ones from Sanus), it sounds good, we did not want the sound bar to cost more than the TV (under $200), and the TV and sound bar is controllable with the remote control from our DVR (in our case, a TiVo Bolt). For this last requirement, I looked for sound bars with an HDMI-ARC input. This allows a remote that controls the TV (the TiVo remote) to also control the volume and power of the sound bar. It turned out that our old TV was also a Samsung and the TiVo remote worked right away with the new set up.Mounting the sound bar: I had to go to the hardware store to buy longer screws and washers. JBL assumes that the sound bar will either be placed on a table or mounted to a wall, not attached to a TV mount with a bracket. The sound bar comes with pre-threaded holes for mounting, and little wall brackets, but the screws provided were too short for the mount. The screws that came with the TV mount and sound bar bracket were too long. I bought M4 screws, 10 mm long and washers that worked.TV sound: a distinct improvement over the TV's speakers. There is not a lot of deep bass, but on this TV, we watch talk shows, cooking shows, and home improvement shows with a lot of dialog. To our ears, we can hear the talking clearly and the quality is very good for that purpose. If we want to watch a movie or listen to music, we go to the living room home theater system.HDMI-ARC: the JBL connects via HDMI cable to the Samsung's HDMI-ARC (CEC) port. The Samsung's other HDMI input is connected to the TiVo. What I found was that at random times after turning the system on, the audio from the JBL was badly distorted and unlistenable while sound from the TV's speakers was fine. After about a week of use, the distortion got more persistent. Using different HDMI cables didn't solve the problem. I was about to switch to using optical audio cable method, but in one final attempt with the HDMI, I did a factory reset of the JBL. I also changed the audio output of the Samsung from Dolby Digital to PCM. (The JBL's Owners Manual has a Dolby logo on it, so it should have accepted what the Samsung was sending to it.) However, the distortion went away after I did those things.Conclusion: once we got our TV/sound bar rig set up and worked through the distortion issue, we are happy with the JBL 2.0. It looks great mounted under the TV as we wheel it around the room, the audio is clear and enjoyable, and the TiVo remote controls it all.

Good deal

Very happy with sound quality. Using in a master bedroom not living area. Had purchased a Sonos “all in one” and sound clarity and quality did not come close to the JBL.

Big upgrade to built in speakers on TV. Also sounds decent when streaming music but definitely has a bass-heavy profile. It would be nice if you could adjust bass & treble, but I’m more than Ok with this product at the price point.
