Bar 1300XMK2

I'd go with the JBL 1300 MK2. Because you have the option of using the two rear speakers as portable Bluetooth speakers, and each rear speaker has four channels.

If you’re going JBL, the new 1300mk2 is on sale for $1500 so only a couple hundred more than the original 1300x (being it’s also on sale). I would go that route being its newer and offers more. Between the 2, JBL has more grunt in the sound and is tuned lower so warmer and “bassier” sound. Samsung i

Good question. Having owned both, I’d say Samsung spreads more constant background sound through the rear speakers, while the JBL is more focused on the actual on-screen action and object placement. One important thing to keep in mind is that Samsung’s rears have no mid or low-frequency, whereas the

I’ve got the JBL Bar 1300 MK2 (Japan version) and honestly, I couldn’t agree more. I came from an old LG SK9Y and the jump in quality is massive. Even though the sub looks kinda small, it’s actually a dual 8-inch with 1200W RMS and you can definitely feel it. It fills the room easily and still keeps

I use my S95TR paired via wireless wowcast to my G4 and it honestly has been better than I expected. That said if you are going to spend money I wouldn't do it on the Samsung devices without auditioning some others. The samsung has shitty bass that is very mid focused and doesn't have that sub bass

Contrary to popular opinion. I just returned my Q990F for a JBL 1300x MK2 Bar. Blows the Q990f out of the water. I had the Q990f for 45 days and tested a bunch of movies and games. While it is certainly a great system. I found the bass lacking. Once I was introduced to the 1300MK2, I didn’t know wha

The audio was great. We have a new JBL 1300X MK2 soundbar, which is great for movies but I've been struggling a bit with dialogue clarity on streaming shows. I have about 10 days left in the exchange period but I haven't heard anything I like better so I'm at a loss for what to do. I'm trying to do

Surround performance the JBL 1300x (previous version) did a phenomenal job at enveloping you in the movie with effects and height sounds from all over. Wireless surrounds are ingenious. Super cool and makes a lot of sense in the soundbar world. The subwoofer was good, not great. Sometimes it shined

JBL. You will enjoy it more due to the bass and optional wireless surrounds. It’s a fun system as I had the original 1300x. Atmos was extremely present and overall surround was great. 1300mk2 has only been improved from what I’ve read

So far I’ve heard the Q990F & D, JBL 1300X MK2, Klipsch Flexus Core 300 full setup, and recently a Senn Ambeo Max. The Klipsch and Ambeo bars by themselves are the most full sounding, the Ambeo having the edge here. The overall surround suffers on the Ambeo since it doesn’t have capability as of yet
