Get This Deal

For just $499.99, below its 30-day average of $610.50. Over the past 90 days, this soundbar has averaged $506.02, making today's price competitive with recent lows.

The 180-day average sits at $543.97, so you're saving against longer-term pricing too.

What You're Getting

The JBL Bar 500 delivers 5.1-channel surround sound with Dolby Atmos and MultiBeam technology, creating immersive 3D audio without extra rear speakers. You get 590 watts of total system power paired with a 10-inch wireless subwoofer for deep bass.

Built-in Wi-Fi supports AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music, and Chromecast for streaming from over 300 services. PureVoice technology enhances dialogue clarity, and automatic software updates keep the system current.

Who This Is For

Best for: TV owners wanting theater-quality sound without complex speaker setups. This works well for movie enthusiasts who want Dolby Atmos immersion and music listeners who appreciate multi-room streaming capabilities.

The Caveat

The 10-inch subwoofer requires floor space, and the system doesn't include rear speakers for true 5.1.2 Atmos setups. Those wanting discrete rear channels will need to add them separately.

Final Verdict

At $499.99, this JBL Bar 500 delivers premium audio features at a price that undercuts its recent average by over $100. If you're upgrading from TV speakers or an older soundbar, this price makes the Atmos experience accessible.

Wait if you need a more compact solution or can hold out for deeper holiday discounts.
