[@martybrazill7935]

JBL certainly knows ther stuff when it comes to reproducing movie soundtracks. This new lineup looks pretty cool.

[@AudioAdvice]

Sure is! Thanks for watching

[@doraemy57]

I have purchased the JBL 500 becoz others are higher than my budget ❤❤❤
JBL the King Of Sound ❤❤❤

[@AudioAdvice]

We hope you enjoy it. Thanks for sharing.

[@doraemy57]

@@AudioAdvice The vibration of the bass of the JBL 500 was literally felt on full volume
My floor was vibrating with the bass power ❤️❤️

I have the jbl bar 1000 and i love this soundbar

[@AudioAdvice]

It's really really good! Especially for the price.

[@kiberborostyan]

I appreciate the comprehensive video and the great advices, guys, well done!
If you don’t mind a comment though, your audio could take a little EQ cleanup, because some low-mid frequency buildup makes your talking hard to understand occasionally. I think it could be a great improvement for an audio focused channel. Otherwise, great video!

[@AudioAdvice]

Thanks! We appreciate your feedback and will look into this! We are always trying to improve our content :)

[@sethfm9773]

JBL makes some excellent soundbars and now they seem to have lots of options.

[@AudioAdvice]

Yes they do! Thanks for sharing

[@Avenue77]

If JBL need to let us link multi subwoofers to one soundbar, I would have easily had 3 in my living room...but instead I still have two 5.1 upstairs and downstairs looking to upgrade sooner

[@AudioAdvice]

That would be cool!! Thanks for watching

oct 28, 2023:
hello, i am writing this from dhaka, bangladesh. i have jbl 5.1 bought in 2019. i have connected this with a 55 inches sony tv x90e which deliver 5.1 dolby digital sound. i am also using a good quality of hdmi to connect the sound bar with the tv. since more than a year, i am having an issue. sometimes, suddenly the soundbar lost connection through hdmi with the tv. after i plug out of power supply cord for a while for both the tv and the soundbar, it becomes normal again. but it does not last for long. it is happening again and again. kindly suggest me what can be done? thanks.

[@AudioAdvice]

Interesting. Contact JBL directly to ask them this question too. Our best advice would be to unplug everything and reset the bar. Also try a new HDMI cable as well. Hope it helps.

[@taylorrasmus1905]

Loved your 1300x review, interested to see how these compare

Hopefully you are able to test the nakamichi dragon 11.6.4 when it comes to see how it stacks against the competition 😅.

[@lobbyrobby]

I've had the sb400 for many many years now but yesterday it decided to quit working so here I am

[@AudioAdvice]

Time for an upgrade?? :)

[@lobbyrobby]

@@AudioAdvice nope. It all of a sudden started working again lol

[@AudioAdvice]

Nice! Glad to hear that! Keep us in mind if you're ever ready to upgrade 😁

[@lobbyrobby]

​@@AudioAdviceabsolutely. I'm not a big movie guy so all this surround sound stuff doesn't really matter to me. I do game occasionally tho. I'm just looking for a decent sounding system. If I had to buy something today it would be the bar 500 (save some money) or the 1000.

[@berkaksoy1907]

How many Volts and amperage adapters should I use to continuously charge 2 rear speakers with Type-C cable? For example, is 5v1A suitable?

[@AudioAdvice]

A regular outlet will work just fine to charge them.

[@susmusmanoj112]

Can the 1000 bar satellite work as left and right speakers independently when using with my phone ?

[@AudioAdvice]

That is only available on the Bar 1300. Thanks for watching

[@stevelucey7719]

That 1300X looks amazing!

[@AudioAdvice]

It is!

[@lukespencer2162]

Hello, I have the JBL bar 800 and thinking to upgrade to 1300. Is it worth the upgrade? Will be any noticeable diffrences in sound with those extra upfiring speakers in front and back ? Thank you!

[@AudioAdvice]

If you watch a lot of action type movies and have a flat ceiling, yes

[@mandracunningham7487]

If you have a room that's pretty open and a cathedral ceiling...would it still be beneficial to get the 1000 or 1300x? I really want detachable speakers but atmos is nothing in this room 😢

[@AudioAdvice]

You would benefit from the bigger sub in a large room. Please reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to discuss your room in more detail.

[@modestasberioza9561]

Hi, Which is better jbl 800 or 9.1? Bass subwoofer better on jbl800 or 9.1?

[@AudioAdvice]

Very similar in bass output.

[@sweetbertchiwangu.]

To get full effects of atmos do you need to have TV that support atmos?

[@AudioAdvice]

You need some way to produce the sound, like an Atmos sound bar or separate speakers, AND your source should be able to deliver Atmos too.

[@OmerAlazawy]

I live in Iraq, the 1300 is for 980$
I feel like I should get it
However, most of the time in my room, I don't play games or movies on loud because my room is not soundproof so, is it gonna be useful on low volumes?

[@AudioAdvice]

It should be yes, we hope you enjoy it

[@tahiraziz4702]

I have JBL 9.1 can I upgrade JBL 1000 how much different this bar please reply 🙏

[@AudioAdvice]

[@michaeltunde907]

How can I get the 1300x to replace my 9.1 I'm in Nigeria

[@AudioAdvice]

Sorry, we only sell in the US. We are not sure.

[@eliazarperez3585]

Can anyone tell me if there is a device that can allow you to hook up multiple soundbars together to a TV? Like say a JBL Bar and a Dione hooked up and have both play sound simultaneously. Basically like an aux splitter but for soundbars.

[@AudioAdvice]

We do not know of anything at this time like that.

[@eliazarperez3585]

@@AudioAdvice dang, I think they would be pretty cool to have though.

[@F-MK96]

Weird there is no 800 in US its same as 700 with upfiring speakers..

[@KuyaArbee]

Ambeo Plus or JBL1300x?

[@cordcuttercam]

1300X , ambeo has no rears

[@KuyaArbee]

@@cordcuttercam right but do we need rears…. All the time 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@cordcuttercam]

@@KuyaArbee you can just have them docked into the soundbar dude , you don't have to detach them all the time you watch a movie or tv show

[@KuyaArbee]

@@cordcuttercam I know that... I've experienced JBL soundbars before and nothing could compete to the soundstage and clarity of the AMBEO MAX that I have paired with a Martin Logan 1100x subwoofer.
Sennheiser also has EQ settings etc., that the JBL doesn't and the adjustment sliders are just their preset levels at this time...

[@cordcuttercam]

@Kuya Arbee I have the ambeo myself but I have the jbl in my theater room and couldn't be more happier , while my sennheiser is in my living room

[@georgefaulk2528]

Where's the 800?
