"The JBL 1300x absolutely kicks ass for music and movies."
"this thing is a beast. ... I’ve had to turn down the bass to its lowest settings because i share walls. ... But this thing definitely will rumble your bones if you want."
"Being able to get the surround detached and placed behind me and plug back in without cables fit perfectly what I needed."

"the sound bar allows you to detach the sides to make rear speakers which I thought was pretty cool."

"I love the detachable rear speakers which last about 10 hours or so. ... But I only use them for movies or video games."

"its a pretty good bang for your buck ... JBL 1300x for more than half the price is a great option also. ... you can’t go wrong with the bar 9 or the JBL 1300x"
"I got it for $999 during a killer Best Buy sale but it’s routinely on sale for $1100-1300. I was trying not to spend more than $1100 and that sale came along at the perfect time."
"The bass of the sub is a monster and side by side the Samsung Sub looks like a child. ... If you dont have issues with money and want excellent system with wall shaking bass, you should pick this over Samsung."

"The biggest positive for me is that it has 3 HDMI inputs, so if you have multiple devices, it basically acts like a hub. I have my Switch, PC, and PS3 hooked up to it and my PS5/XSX over eARC."

"it became a little too much in the sub department that it would over power the voices in the movies. ... Like the sound effects were insane, but at the cost of losing what the actors were saying in the movies."
"The bass can be turned down enough. It s excessive."

"the side speakers when you disconnect them from the sound bar are total crap."
"The weak link in JBL setup is the surrounds which are really weak."
