What to do if there is no sound from JBL CINEMA SB150?
- D
  douglas70Jul 26, 2025
  If there is no sound coming from both the soundbar and the subwoofer, verify these things: * Check if the soundbar is ON (the Power Indicator should be white). * Check if the cable connecting the TV or other source component to the soundbar is properly connected at both ends. * Check if the soundbar’s Source Selector is set to the correct source and that source is playing an audio signal. * Check if the system is not muted. If the system is muted, press the volume buttons to un-mute the system. * Check if the soundbar’s volume is not turned all the way down (the lowest setting of the Volume Down button will mute the system).

  If there is no sound coming only from the subwoofer, try these steps: * Check if the Subwoofer Volume Control is not turned all the way down using the remote control. * Check if the wireless connection is still active (Blue LED constant in the back of the subwoofer). If the LED is flashing blue, then restart the pairing process. * Move the subwoofer closer to the soundbar. The maximum wireless operation distance is 50 feet (15.3 m).

Why does JBL Home Cinema volume reset when soundbar is turned on?
- M
  Mark RiddleAug 22, 2025
  The volume resets when you turn on the soundbar because this is an inbuilt feature. If the soundbar is playing at more than 50 percent of maximum volume and the power is turned off, the volume of the soundbar is automatically reset to 50 percent of the maximum volume when the system is turned ON.
