@@bigbodyjose8254 Thank you, hopefully you purchased from Audio Advice to support our channel and small business. Enjoy your new sound!
I would like to see a review on the new nakamichi dragon 11.4.6 if and when it comes out.
Thanks for this review.
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching
Thanks for the video.
Hopefully future generations of soundbars will have a more powerful and customizable room calibration.
I hope to see that implementation soon since at the moment I don't see it, just like the possibility of putting another subwoofer to the configuration if desired by the client.
written with translator
Greetings
Glad you enjoyed the video
Love the ability to get the surrounds used as a separate setup. Like 2 systems in 1!
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
Very innovative design with sub and surrounds
Thanks, we agree
Waiting for the nakamichi dragon 11.4.6 soundbar review…
Ciao i surraund possono rimanere alla barra.? Per un mese senza usarli dietro.?
Can you explain how this system time aligns the sub and the wireless surrounds after you've placed them in a place other than next to the sound bar?
It is actually quite interesting the process you go through. You can see it here on pages 15-16 of the user manual. www.jbl.se/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-masterCatalog_Harman/default/dw8293a4a2/pdfs/JBL_HA_Bar%201300_OM_Global_V6_EN.pdf Thanks for watching
Ciao in italia ce la jbl bar 1300..1500euro come si attiva la funzione pure voce.?
i have jbl bar 1300 and i play netflix dolby atmos content but bar show dolby sorround plz help me for this problem 🖐🖐🖐🖐
The ability to move the surrounds around seems like a perfect option for gameday parties!
Absolutely!
Also, thank you so much for that detail about limitations of 60hz for consoles plugged into the bar, and the detail that you plug your console directly into the TV to reduce lag and get the best picture. It seems 120hz and VRR wouldn’t work for Xbox Seris X if connected directly to the soundbar. Is that accurate?
Those features are not part of the bar, just connect your console to your display and use HDMI eArc to get full Dolby Atmos. If you have a TV capable of high speed gaming, it should have eArc
@@AudioAdvice So, what happens if I play a game ON PS5 that sends a 4K120hz signal while connected to the bar?
@@OmerAlazawy for instance, when you turn on the PS5, it will tell you that your device is not capable to run 4k at 120Hz so it will set it up as 4K at 60Hz anyway. Just like it was mentioned before, plug the console directly to your screen via HDMI and let your TV do the transfer to the soundbar. Use the HDMIs on the bar for any other devices that not need 4K at 120Hz, like a Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Apple TV, cable boxes or so.
How Will the designer(uneven) POP sealing with sealing fan will affect the Dolby Atmos sound effect?
This should still be fine as long as it's 10-12 feet or lower and has no obstructions in the way. Yes, technically it may diffract the sound waves a bit but it shouldn't make a huge difference at the end of the day. Hope that helps!
what I was looking for in a review was even how does it perform when the rear are in the bar... how does it perform compared with bar alone system like sony A5/7000, bose or Arc without the rear speakers? Because the price is high but not as high as these other systems in the complete form with the option of having the full surround when needed in movie night.
My room is odd shaped and having something on the wall is not ideal and this bar could solve my problem but I would like to know how does it perform when everything is together in the bar
We did not test it that way as it is so simple to move the battery powered rear speakers to locations for rear surrounds we do not feel anyone would use them much on the bar.
The sonos will always be the best sounding soundbar compared to the Bose. But for JBL, it has a loud sub but not tight and clean and as the pioneered sub gen 3. Otherwise, it's personal preference. Don't think sounbars are all in for music. It's mainly for impactful movies. But quality wise, it's Sonos, Bose, and JBL.
How is the front soundstage once The rear speakers are detached.
Also how is this in comparison to a full arc soundbar system?
Its very good. Please reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to go over the pros and cons of each configuration. Thanks for watching
Does the sound stage seem narrow in front of a bigger TV? Like an oversized center channel?
You should look into a separate speaker system for better sound staging.
i am wondering what holds the BOSE 900 back ? is it the surrounds ? or the 700bass Module ? I think the bar itself is a great sounding bar...have had the Samsung Q950a and the Sonos Arc / 2 subs / SL ones and ended up selling both...just wasn't feeling it....where do i go next as in soundbars ? Bose ? JBL ? Sennheisser ? Klipsch ? i am not a bass head but enjoy clear dialogue and crisp sound...looking forward to opinions......MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL.....cheers from Vulcan Canada
This one would be a great choice!!
This bar looks amazing but if I purshase a tv from LG which could be your recommendation?
Reach out to our experts at audioadvice.com and they can help you pick the best one for you!
Do these surround speakers connect to main bar with wi fi or bluetooth? If its bluetooth , can it transmit an Atmos signal over it?
That is a great question, we think it is bluetooth. And yes, it will pass Atmos signal over it.
I managed to buy the Q990B for $680 USD, love it.
How is it?? I'm planning to get one too as it is on sale in our area.. I'm afraid coz of the disconnection problems. Did you experience any??
Nice! How do you like it?
What do you recomend this jbl 1300x
Or the samsung q990c ?
Because i want to buy one this week , . I like to play video games , view horror movies and play music sometimes at loud volume
Probably the JBL 1300X if you want the versatility of having battery powered surround speakers.
What do you think about the quality of the jbl1300 compared to q990b? , Apart from the price aspect,
samsungs dynamics are, in a sense, punchier. doesnt mean JBL is bad in any way. different sound profiles, and sound is subjective.
To us, the JBL has a more rich and full sound where as the Samsung is a bit more edgy.
Nice review but do you know how this 1300X compare to the European model 1300, what have 10" subwoofer instead of 1300X 12"??
We do not have any info on the European model, sorry. Thanks for watching
Appreciate for your efforts.
If you compare jbl 1300 with Samsung Q990C which one is better?
Please reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to go over the differences
since your not compeating with neighbours JBL 1300 IS BEST BECAUSE OF PRICE. Q990C IS EXPENSIVE BECAUSE OF HIGH VOLUME OF RALE SPEAKERS. for me i enjoy jbl, perfect bass and sound fo both music . in movies its mind blowing
when will it be available on the Italian market?
We only sell in the US so we aren't sure about that.
Hi, can you adjust the subwoofer volume?
Yes, the remote has 5 level settings. Thanks for watching
Can you leave the surround speakers permanently in the rear attach to a usb C power cable and using it at the same time?
I have the same question. Not sure but I believe you can.
That should work fine. Even if you had issues, you could leave a cable next to it to charge and unplug when you use them. This would also help save its battery life instead of having them permanently plugged in.
kindly, which is better for dialogue , this one or Q990b
Probably the 1300X in our opinion.
Hi, when I listen to music on the JBL1300 through bluetooth with the detachable speakers plugged into the main bar, the main bar doesn’t make any sound, only the detachable speakers do. And once I detach them, then the main bar starts playing. I wonder why the whole bar can’t play music to enjoy the full power of the set without detaching the rear speakers. Do you know how to fix this ? Thanks
We have not heard of this and will need to test it ourselves. That seems really odd.
Any updates about this?
Hi can you provide this soundbar products PowerPoint PPT .
Sorry, we can not
@@AudioAdvice ok 👍
who performs sonically better? JBL 1300x or Ambeo Plus with Sub?
Really tough choice. We're thinking the Ambeo might but the 1300X will probably have more immersion.
@@AudioAdvice yea The Ambeo is proven! and I have the AMBEO MAX and looking at the PLUS
@@AudioAdvice welps pulled for an AMBEO PLUS and AMBEO SUB! I just love the sonic clarity and front immersion of Ambeo Tech! I've heard Sonos arc with full immersion! though incredible, it didn't sound as engaging as the Ambeo in my opinion...
been having my 9.1 for about 2 years now i love it but now i’ve come to find out it’s not the flagship model anymore :( i can’t even begin to comprehend that there’s a better newer jbl bar. is it worth the upgrade ? i really only care about bass and dolby atmos
If you already have a 9.1, this is an upgrade but not huge.
Agreed
I just got the 1300x on sale for 1100. I also have had the 9.1 for a couple of years. At first I didn't notice a huge difference but I will be playing a couple of key atmos scenes with both to see if it's worth it or not. (There are a couple of Bird Box scenes that are amazing with atmos) If not, then I'm returning the 1300x. It does sound amazing though, but so does the 9.1. The bass is almost the same, maybe the lows hit deeper...and the atmos is a bit better. But worth the price difference? Not sure yet. If they would have given us more control over each channel, the volume more than 31, and even a remote with a back light I would have most likely just kept it without all the skepticism. All that being said...not worth full price if you already have the 9.1 and if you get it on sale...hold on to the receipt just in case.
@@harleydad1975 nice. thanks a lot
Hi, this is my first time owning this sound bar, i need help to find the best way conecting my sound bar 1300x, my cable box and my fire tv 4k to my new 75 inch SONY XR X90L tv to get better sound can you please help me?
Just connect your sources to your TV and use its eARC over to the Bar.
Jbl bar 1000 or 990b? If the price difference is about 300usd in my a country ? Cheers 🙏
If the Bar 1000 is the same as the 1300 in the US, get the JBL
@@AudioAdvice no, 1000 is little brother of 1300 with 7.1.4 channel and smaller 10inch sub . Thanks
Hold the mute button for 5 seconds and then press the bass button on the remote. It turns off the purevoice.
ciao pure voce 5 secondi .?? In mute.?
Nice tip, thanks
@@AudioAdvice hello video test.?
Lots of pros highlighted.
Any cons?
Price. It is the flagship soundbar from JBL so it has a hefty price tag. But if it's in your budget, 100% worth it.
😮😮😮hello can you help me how did i get jbl bar 1300 the box has double schoch white tape side under white...may it have been used before? or did jbl make the boxes like this?
We are not sure. Packing could vary by run and country shipped to. You should reach out to the dealer you purchased from.
@@AudioAdvice jbl italia
@@AudioAdvice i was told by jbl italia that it was never opened 😑😑😑
@@AudioAdvice i wanted to know if the other people bought with the same white shock side under the white packaging ... the seals are the ones that is not open i saw the first day
@@AudioAdvice I was very disappointed😢 jbl bar 1300 with 1500 euros in Italy 3 months ago I bought JBL Italy and it was delivered to me. with broken polystyrene
Can you compare this with Sony's HT-A7000
Pleaser reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to go over the differences. Thanks for watching
How does this perform for gaming, specifically Xbox Series X?
If you mean the sound, it is great for a soundbar.
In your honest opinion would you buy the Samsung q990b or the 1300x?
Please reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to discuss the pros and cons of each, thanks for watcing
Please take out the doggo..😢...he/she is really waiting for you to finish the video😂
Haha, thanks for watching
it’s on 😉🍿
You know it!!
Ciao dove viene fabbricato.? Jbl bar 1300.jbl bar 1300x.?
Bar 1300 is international and 1300X is US version.
Can we get this lossless audio with arc??
You need to use eARC. Thanks for watching
I currently own the 9.1 and my only complaint is the sound stage is not very wide. Does the 1300x achieve a wide sound stage? Also my TV set up is 77" lg oled.
That is going to be an issue with all sound bar type systems. Separate speakers will be your best bet if you want a wider soundstage without faking it through phase tech.
@@AudioAdvice even the q990b?
@@vilhelmstein2091 yes - it's a soundbar that bounces sounds off walls like every other bar. a longer bar just means shorter distance to wall assuming the room is a good room to bounce sound in. in short, it's all just echoes and some give off louder echoes than others.
@@vilhelmstein2091 We tested that one earlier for a 2023 best of and felt there were better options for how it handled dialog
😞 unfortunately only jbl bar 1300x is not available in Italy.. the jbl bar 1300 version. 1500 euros. 25cm 300w subwoofer
yes, sometimes things vary by country. thanks for watching
@@AudioAdvice 😔
Every body talk about this , but nobody says if this are better tban Samsung q990c ? Because i want to buy a sound bar asap
We would recommend this over the Samsung but both are very good.
Can you tell me why in short text ? Thanks for reply i will support chanell
Can you add a second subwoofer?
No, there isn't a way that we know of to do that.
Is it louder than the jbl party box 1100 watts
No, the partybox should be louder.
Can this soundbar be good for home Karaoke?
It could play the music part if you had a separate speaker for the vocals.
@AudioAdvice is it adding a mixer will damage the soundbar? I intent to use the sounbar for Karaoke if it is viable.
@@baryasaumaga5243 Correct consumer products are not meant to be PA speakers
This looks like a killer sound bar.
It sure does!
فديو رائع
Thanks!
I have a question: where do you rank this compared to Sony HT-A9 and 5000?
Please reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to go over the differences. Thanks for watching
The subwoofer Cabinet is wood or plastic?
It feels like an MDF material.
@@AudioAdvice how was the bass in 1300x?
Phenomenal
@@AudioAdvice and how was bass in 1300
10 inch subwoofer ??
I await an answer, jbl 1300 x or jbl 9.1
The truth is that I have seen good prices for jbl 9.1 compared to jbl 1300x
With the 9.1 being discontinued it is likely you might find a good deal on one. The 1300x is ultimately better though.
hello there will be a new update.? I haven't received anything yet jbl bar 1300 how come nothing yet.?
We are not sure what you mean? If you mean a firmware update you can always check the JBL site.
JBL 9.1 Gang 😎
Glad you liked it, thanks for sharing
I have the JBL 9.1 ATMOS and the sound quality is garbage. Very muddy. It's pretty sad when you connect up a Hisense Atmos bar for your parents, and realize that bar sounds better than your JBL 9.1 just in terms of sound quality. Is the 1300X the answer I'm looking for? Or is it just a lateral move with same muddy sound quality, with just more power?
Did you do the calibration for your system?
@@AudioAdvice You betch'a. Running 4K premium HDMI cables. This JBL still sounds muddy.
jbl vs bose 900'?
JBL
@@AudioAdvice jbl vs samsung q990b?
Hello video test.?
What do you think?
I compared the Jbl 1300x, Sonos Arc & Bose 900 in store & the Jbl blew both away. Only downside is massive unnecessary size of the subwoofer...
It's a great soundbar! Thanks for sharing!
hows the ambeo max compared to JBL 1300?
@coolestspott69 Ambeo Max is the best by far. It has the most complete sound, just too big in my opinion.
@@billbangz ok.. was leaning more towards the JBL because of the detachable speaker's can the ambeo max project that kind of sound of having those independent speaker's?
@@billbangz would there be any issues for the detachable speaker's in future regarding battery up.. pretty sure that the battery would lose it's capacity over a period of time
Woofer size is 10 inch I guess
12 inch
i have jbl..1300. that thing is hell.
Thanks for sharing. We hope you are enjoying yours.
How can you call this a _review_ when you are a retail store that sells this product? Where is your objectivity?
Yes we are a retailer, we never try to hide that fact, but we do test a whole lot of gear that we feel is not worthy of a video. If we like a product, we will do a video on it. We are simply trying to replicate the experience you would get if you walked into one of our showrooms and asked someone on our team about the product. Thanks for watching

@@AudioAdvice Hello video test?
The point is you an get a samsung q990b at almost half this price. And it's much better than this too .
Better based on what disconnecting more often?
Have you heard this one yet?
@@garretts431 agreed. That's one issue they got to sort. Am waiting for q990c to my s90c.
@@AudioAdvice good point I haven't. But based on the specs, the front bar alone without the sides is smaller than the Samsung and based on other reviews appart from the subwoofer am not sure if there is something better than the Samsung. BTW, comparison video out anytime ?
These videos seem more like ads than reviews 👎🏼
Thanks for the feedback. We do carry this soundbar on our website but we were sure to test it thoroughly before making a video about it. We stand behind the products that we review so typically we are quite excited to share how well they perform. Otherwise, we wouldn't recommend people to buy it. We understand where you're coming from and we want to be as transparent as possible!

Thanks for not giving an audio demo. 🤡
It's very hard to give audio demos through UA-cam as there are many variables that will make it sound not the same as in person. Plus UA-cam compresses the audio a ton.
