Overview
JBL's PSB-1 is a compact 2.0-channel soundbar with 25 watts of output, built for wall mounting under a TV and controlled by IR remote rather than an app or Bluetooth. At 37.2 inches wide, it suits smaller TVs and secondary rooms rather than a home theater centerpiece.
With no listed Bluetooth or HDMI ARC, control here is IR-remote based, so it likely pairs through an included remote or a learning function on the TV's own remote instead of a wireless app. The 25W rating is modest, aimed at lifting dialogue and effects above a flat-panel TV's built-in speakers rather than filling a large room. Wall-mount hardware is implied by the mounting spec, worth checking against your TV's own mount clearance.
- 2.0-channel, 25W output
- IR remote control
- Wall-mount design
- 37.2 in wide, 5.9 lb
Who it's for
Fits owners of a bedroom or office TV who want cleaner dialogue without adding another remote app to manage. Not a match for anyone wanting wireless multi-room audio or a subwoofer, since neither is listed here.
Pros and cons
- Wall-mountable for a clean under-TV setup
- Slim profile at under 6 inches deep
- Simple IR remote control, no app pairing
- No Bluetooth or app connectivity listed
- 25W output is modest for larger rooms
- No subwoofer channel
Performance notes
With one power rating (25W) split across two channels and no listed subwoofer, output leans toward dialogue clarity over deep bass. IR control means the soundbar responds to line-of-sight remote signals, so placement below or near the TV matters more than with Bluetooth-paired units.
