Fortunately, the JBL® Cinema SB400 system offers cinema-quality audio in a small space and high style. Its two-channel soundbar features four 2-1/4-inch (57-millimeter) woofers, two 1-inch (25-millimeter) tweeters, an amplifier that delivers up to 120 watts, integrated Bluetooth® technology for streaming music from digital devices, three HDMI® inputs and HARMAN Display Surround technology, which creates a 3D listening environment from only two channels. The system also includes a 200-watt, 8-inch (200-millimeter) wireless subwoofer with bass-boost control. The SB400 is everything that you can ask for in a sound system.
The Cinema SB400 incorporates amplifiers, controls andleft and right woofers and tweeters into a single soundbar. Its built-inamplification simplifies system connections and operation, and offers up to 120watts of power.

We are sorry about this problem. EuP regulations require that electronics go into full off after some time. Unfortunately, this means that the soundbar cannot be woken up again after half an hour. It is necessary to use the ON/OFF switch.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

It is usually not necessary to replace an unresponsive remote control. First, check to see if there is a small plastic tab extending out of the base of the remote control. This is a protective sleeve installed on new remote controls to prevent the battery from draining. Pull this tab to remove the plastic sleeve. The sleeve must be removed before the remote will operate. If the sleeve was removed or not present and the remote control is not working then a new battery should be installed before replacing the remote control. There is a small slide out drawer that houses the battery. The battery type will be either CR2025 or CR2032 for remotes of this size. Replacement batteries are commonly available from most electronic and convenience stores that sell small batteries. Check the number on the original battery and replace it with a battery that uses the same number. These steps will typically solve the problem.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

First time you perform the pairing, it can take several minutes to establish connection. If more than five minutes go by with no result, please switch both units OFF and ON again.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

With HARMAN Volume you can set your desired volume between low, medium and high. You can listen to your audio without sudden distracting changes such as blasts from ads, and volume variations as you switch between channels on your TV. Other benefits include full sound effects even at low volumes, this means if you are watching movies (DVD, BlueRay disc) and HARMAN volume is set to low volume, then the signal is more compressed, than what the other volume levels is. This will allow you to hear natural, consistent sound at low volume level, and not only hearing voice conversation from movies, giving you the same movie experience just with lower volume. What is best for you is a matter of personal preference, so we recommend playing around with the three different levels.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

This problem is usually caused by pressing down too hard on the soundbar's VOL + or VOL - Buttons. Only press just enough for one click to be felt. If a second click is felt in the button, you are pressing too hard, and you are actually activating the MUTE function for learning, not VOL up or down. You may have to repeatedly let go of the VOL button on the soundbar, followed by pressing it again and then pressing the VOL button on the TV remote before the surround light on the soundbar lights up white and goes back to amber flashing, as a sign that this function has been learned. This is no problem, though. Just keep trying until the three commands have been learned. The soundbar only exits learning mode when you press and hold the surround button as the final step.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!
