Pros and Cons of JBL Bar 5.0 Multibeam

Pros

• Atmos Support: it offers an immersive audio experience with Dolby Atmos support.
• The Auto Calibration: the soundbar features automatic calibration for optimal audio setup in any room.
• Impressive Bass: Delivers good bass performance without the need for a separate subwoofer, as expected of JBL audio products.
• Compact Design: JBL Bar 5.0 Multibeam small size makes it easy to integrate into various setups.
• Room Correction Feature: It adjusts the audio output to match the acoustics of the room.
• Bass Adjustment Feature: Allows for tweaking the bass level to suit personal preferences.
• Multiple Connectivity: USB, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth.

Cons

• Few Sound Adjustments: Limited options for customizing the sound profile.
• No App Support: JBL Bar 5.0 Multibeam lacks a dedicated app for additional controls or features.
• Lacks Low-Bass: the soundbar may struggle to reproduce the deep rumble in action-packed scenes, due to lacking low-bass capacity.
• Downmixes Dolby Atmos: JBL Bar 5.0 Multibeam can only play Atmos content by downmixing it to surround content, which isn’t as immersive as true Atmos sound.

Verdict

The JBL Bar 5.0 Multibeam is worth your money for home entertainment, based on its compact size, premium design, room-filling Atmos audio, and good bass without a subwoofer. It stands out for its boxy sound profile that adds punch and boom but struggles with low bass, which is quite unfortunate. Conclusively, the soundbar performs pretty well and holds its own when it comes to performance with good soundstage and clear vocals, besides the immersive audio output. However, its simplicity, issues with its Dolby Vision passthrough, lack of app control, and low bass struggles make it worthwhile checking its specs if it fits your style and personal preferences, and what other alternative soundbars offer.
