Torn between the Samsung Q990F and Sonos Arc Ultra

Stay far from anything Sonos. As far as you can. More than 1 year ago they messed their software platform so bad they lost a huge number of customers. Now, it’s a bit better but there are still many software issues. They fired their CEO and other executive because of that. Now they even have hardwar

Help. I need to decide between two soundbars Samsung or JBL

On the contrary to what someone told you here, Sonos doesn’t sound so good for music nor anything. We replaced all our Sonos gear in the house with JBL and discovered how much the so called Sonos sound quality was bullshit. My 250€ JBL Bar 300 has a much better sound quality than the Sonos Beam it r

If you're trying to decide between Sonos beam Gen 2 and something else, let me make it easier

My own experience is easy to explain : Stay far from anything Sonos. As far as you can. More than 1 year ago they messed their software platform so bad they lost a huge number of customers. Now, it’s a bit better but there are still many software issues. They fired their CEO and other executive beca

Looking for a decent soundbar + sub setup (UK) – what’s actually worth it?

I’ve got a JBL Bar 1300mk2 myself, not cheap but it’s bloody good. https://youtu.be/2CoPy4R60fU?si=rWnf7Jdczox-YZT9 There are cheaper JBL models which are also pretty good and looking at their site they currently have 20% off. https://uk.jbl.com/soundbars/

Hey guys, I made the mistake of going to the Hometheater snob Reddit. My bad, I apparently needed to be here. Lol

Indeed JBL is a good option. We have 2 at home and are very happy with it. Incredibly better than our previous Sonos setup we got rid off because of the app issues which are still not solved despite what influencers are telling everywhere. Be aware that the JBL Bar 1300 (the first one not the Mark I

Q990D or JBL BAR 800 @ $840 or JBL BAR 1000 @ $1039?

https://www.rtings.com/soundbar/tools/compare/samsung-hw-q990d-vs-jbl-bar-1000/49714/34907?threshold=0.16 Rtings.com comparison between the Q990D and JBL Bar 1000. I wouldn't spend another 200 for an arguably worse product. They also rate it higher than the 1300X.

Soundbar as a replacement for a decent stereo (new apartmant)

Be aware that a sub may cause trouble with you neighbours you will probably have to set its volume down. Coming from a decent stereo you need a good sound quality soundbar with a very good musical sound too. I suggest the JBL Bar 1000 (I have it) and if you can the Bar 1300 MK2 (don’t get the 1300 f

Looking for help - standalone soundbar so many options

I had Sonos soundbars in my house and we decided to replace it because of the software issues. When we did, we first got a JBL Bar 300 to replace the Sonos Beam. It was sonincredibly better than the Sonos and for much less money we felt a bit stupid for believing their influencers on social networks

Battlefield 6, 98" TV, Atmos and a recliner.

Got a stupidly good deal on a JBL Bar 1000 mk2. I’ve always been a dedicated home theater supporter but unfortunately due to changes in my house layout I figured a soundbar was just overall more ideal. But I’m very happy with how it performs.

What do you think about the Sony Bravia Theatre System 6

I have tested the jbl bar 1000 and this in bass hts60 is winner but in surround and dolby jbl bar wins that doesn't mean hts60 is not worthy it tries to imitate sound which is coming from ceiling but I can say it's true dolby surround sound lack of upfiring speakers cannot decide that this is virtua
