Pros

  • Jbl mk2 1300 higer premium if u can
  • I use the JBL 1300 in a very large room and it sounds amazing.
  • JBL is Pure Cinema feel, ( I Have 1300 )
  • Parent context: What about music? I’ve watch a couple of youtube reviews and they mentioned the 1300 is amazing for movies with atoms but somehow music comes out weird and over processed. Reply: It’s better than Samsung at music
  • I LOVED the sub on the 1300, far better than any soundbar sub I've tested in my own living room. But the overall sound quality is no where near as nice as Sonos.

Cons

  • Parent context: Jbl mk2 1300 higer premium if u can Reply: The 1300 is too wide for my taste, it would fit beyond the borders of my TV and would just barely fit on my console.
  • I had a JBL BAR 1300 earlier. I liked the BASS which was very thumbing, but the dialogue clarity was very poor and even after trying various settings like PureVoice!
  • The jbl rear speakers are so quiet it’s not a question if you want surround sound
  • They are pretty comparable but the jbl has a bigger and boomier woofer. Personally, I don't like the rear speakers in the jbl

I have the JBL Bar 1300. If you prefer accurate sound rather than booming high bass, JBL is the correct choice
