Our take on the JBL Bar-500-MK2 Dolby Atmos Soundbar 10 Wireless Subwoofer

The JBL Bar 500 MK2 is a 5.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer and Dolby Atmos decoding. It uses two up-firing drivers to bounce height effects off the ceiling and adds JBL's MultiBeam surround processing for a wider front stage. It suits people who want real bass and Atmos from a single bar-plus-sub setup without rear speakers. Against rivals like the Sonos Beam and Samsung Q-series bars, it gives more low-end out of the box but has fewer inputs and no room calibration.

What reviewers say

Owners describe the Bar 500 MK2 as an easy upgrade that finally gives TV sound real weight, with the subwoofer doing most of the work. Reviewers like the Atmos effect for films but note it is subtle without rear speakers. A few find dialogue needs a nudge on the bar's own settings.

What people mention
  • BassPraisedOwners say the wireless subwoofer delivers deep, room-filling low end that transforms action scenes.
  • Atmos effectMixedReviewers find the height effect noticeable in films but subtle, since there are no rear speakers.

Questions and answers

Does the JBL Bar 500 MK2 come with rear speakers?
No. It is a bar plus wireless subwoofer only, so surround effects come from the bar's front and up-firing drivers rather than speakers behind you.
Does it support Dolby Atmos?
Yes. It decodes Dolby Atmos and uses up-firing drivers to reflect height effects off the ceiling, though the effect is strongest in rooms with a flat, low ceiling.
How do I connect it to my TV?
Use the HDMI eARC port for one-cable connection and TV remote control. The subwoofer pairs wirelessly, so it only needs power.
Can I add rear speakers later?
No. The Bar 500 MK2 is a fixed configuration, so buyers who want true rear channels should look at JBL's models that ship with detachable surround speakers.
Is it good for music as well as films?
It handles music well thanks to the subwoofer and wide soundstage, but it is tuned more for movies than for critical stereo listening.
Does it have room calibration?
No automatic calibration. You adjust bass, dialogue and surround levels yourself through the bar's settings.
Where is the JBL Bar-500-MK2 Dolby Atmos Soundbar 10 Wireless Subwoofer cheapest?
At Newegg, for $729.99, as of our latest check.
