What are your thoughts on integrated USB outlets?

my JBL 9.1 soundbar uses usb to power the rear speakers, so rather have the integrated outlets there vs usb power brick plugged in. Nice to have the integrated outlets and don't mind that they're low powered.

Is my TV supposed to be curved like this? Or did this happen after I mounted it on the wall? Hisense 55" 55U8QTUK

Does anyone else have soundbar or CEC issues? I can’t control my soundbar at all and it disconnects sometimes and won’t connect. I have a Jbl 9.1.

Do i take these blue bits of tape off? U8Q

I have this model too and I’m having trouble coupling it with my Jbl 9.1 speakers. No CEC control and sometimes it drops and my tv can’t even see them

Best home sound system?

I'm very happy with the JBL Bar 9.1 soundbar system with wireless sub and wireless rears. I'd buy another JBL Bar product if I needed one, like the Bar1000 or Bar700 with Multibeam 2.0 ATMOS.

Best home sound system?

I think OP want a simple and clean setup, So I’d go with a soundbar system over a full multi-room setup. Under the $1500 budget, the JBL Bar 9.1 is a really solid choice (I’m using it myself). It hits the balance of being wireless, easy to use day-to-day, and good for both TV and music. One big reas

Looks like Bose may have finally discontinued the surround speakers 700

Bose has much better clarity than JBL 9.1. actually, JBL 9.1 and the previous gen have not great clarity. The new mk2 JBL lineup is much better. You’re not better off getting Bose as JBL offers more especially now. JBL’s smart mode never bothered me on any of their units but this is personal prefere

Hisense U8k not passing through Atmos

I used to have the 75” U8K and set it up with JBL Bar 9.1. I’m fairly certain that I just had it set to digital audio out and auto as I experienced issues with Passthrough. I also had issues with eARC so I had it set to ARC. I’m not sure if it was firmware related or U8K hardware related.

DM13 Firmware Update Stuck - Bricked?

I came to say thank you for this. I was worried that I bricked my new DM13 BT after it was stuck in UPDATE, but I can safely power it on again with out of the box V25 firmware. I then found this post and successfully updated it to V27 after converting the USB drive to MBR using diskpart command via
