Review on Sound Bar JBL Bar 2.1 Deep Bass Black by Putri Cantika ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A completely ordinary product, nothing remarkable.

Purchased to replace music. the center of the 20-year-old Sony MHC-W555, which takes up a lot of space, both the system itself and two huge 4-way speakers, in fact, the center has served as a sound bar for the last 10 years, the sound suited, but it was inconvenient otd. on his remote control is constantly on / off, adjust the sound, I wanted full synchronization, discs, radio, cassette deck have not been used for a long time. The first impressions after connection were such that I wanted to return the soundbar, my expectations were clearly too high, it sounds in music definitely worse than this center, the speakers of which I also smashed to different corners of the room for a panorama. In films - yes, the sound is more correct, in the center it is necessary to adjust for such a result, but there the buttons are already buggy, you press one, and the function of the other is performed - its minuses. There are 5.1 models - I think they should already sound adequate. Now it is necessary to hand over the panel for repair, there is no longer a guarantee, to the office. it makes no sense to take it, it’s easier to look for something with a high rating closer to home. ate: According to the result of the diagnostics (not official, but with a high rating in the area, because there is no guarantee already): the capacitor at the input has broken, which from 24 volts to 5 volts further along the board. The master tried to revive something, but he says in vain, most likely the percentage also broke through and the entire board was to be replaced. Don't know where to get these. I talked with the officials, their answer: fee 8000, work 2850, the delivery time of the part is unknown even rudely, i. E. whether 1-3, or 6-12 months to wait - they cannot say. But if you want to eat - bring it, make an advance payment of 1.5K and wait for the weather by the sea, as I understand it, if you get tired of waiting after a certain period - no one will return the prepayment. At least they didn't answer my question. I would be ready to pay, but dragging a bandura, and without a certain understanding - there is no desire. Thinking what to do. Unpleasant, 20K in less than two years.

Pros
  • Speed ​​and convenience of connecting to TV A "sound for home theater" solution without a heavy investment. good bass
Cons
  • Definitely not for listening to music, because in this regard there is not enough sound panorama and medium high frequencies. You can try to turn the equalizer on the sound source, but this cannot be done on the same TV. 20 months after the purchase, it stopped turning on: yesterday I turned it off before going to bed, this morning I turn it on - no reaction to either the buttons or the remote control, plugging wires / plugs does not give a result, as if it had not worked before.
