JBL - Bar 800MK2

Very happy with my mk2 800 JBL. Sound is incredible

I got the q935d a couple of days ago, it’s great ! Tested JBL bar800 mk2 but q935d is better for me.

I’ve had Q935D and now I have 995F, I had a JBL bar 800 mk2 but return it just because I didn’t like dialog sound. For me Samsung was way better, it also have possibilities to adjust it more in smart things app. You can adjust Chanel level and there is a choice to enable/disable voice amplification. For me it’s more than fine with this disabled

Hi. I’ve ordered a Samsung S95F and will soon get it. Started with buying a JBL soundbar that I tested with my old tv. The one I got was JBL bar 800 mk2. It was a good soundbar but I wasn’t really happy with the speech sound. Bought a Samsung Q935D and this is the one I use now. The all around sound is better with Samsung, JBL had more bass. I didn’t really like the concept of its detachable rear speakers with battery. Sound wise it’s great when you could place them anywhere you want but when attached to soundbar the speech sound bad. I like dedicated rear speakers more. Though a have ordered a Samsung tv I think a Samsung bar is the best option. Haven’t tried q symphony yet but I think it’s great to have that option

I started my soundbar path with JBL bar 800 mk2. Overall it’s a good soundbar, plenty of bass but I wasn’t satisfied with dialog and rear when they was mounted to the bar. They wasn’t especially loud when I had them placed out either. Tried Samsung q935D and this was much better in my ears. Lower bass but much better dialog and permanent rear speakers with only power cable. Samsung also have more sound settings via SmartThings app and I really like my own tweaks regarding sound

Ultimea for me. Bought last year D80 boom. But if you prefer with height up firing Speakers get the sky wave x series. Besides affordability without breaking a bank but standard Dolby Atmos speakers is my preference for now. But if you have extra budget. Get the bar 800mk2 or 1000 of JBL. With regards to your preferred brand against LG, Sony theater 6 is better but extra functionality of Sony features will require Sony TV. Nevertheless its all good. Check also Polk magnifi series.

Try to find jbl mk2 800. New model

Small room then mid size soundbar q930f,jbl mk2 800 model.no more answer and question .problem will solve.what type of model tv do u have?

Always Go With Newer Model Because They Find Out Some Bugs They Fix In next Version. After Taking Old One You Won't Gate Any Service Support Due To. Replacement Parts Shortage. Than They Will Definitely Give New Model As A Replacement 😂

I meant that older models sometimes face spare-parts availability issues once discontinued. In my experience with Samsung/JBL products, newer revisions usually have longer firmware and service support. That’s the only reason I suggested going with the newer model—not saying older ones won’t get support at all.

Nice how many detachable speakers were there. Do they get loud. I got the JBL bar 800 mk2 and thought the detachable speakers need to be louder like they sound in that mode that plays through them only. Other then that it seems good. I emailed support and asked them to add a option for full speaker mode with much louder detachable speakers. The rep said he passed it into the software guys. I have my fingers crossed for that.

The short answer is no… here’s the deal… option 1: you can’t afford much so you’re really weighing up what the impact is if you value Raman over sound quality then get a solo bar… Option2: you can afford a sub but you’d really love something else… a good bar will do all you need it to for a room that size you can add to it later! I just bought a Samsung q700 for $400 AUD and it sounds 90% as good as my JBL 800… listen to a dozen in the store.. be a pest.. make them hate you… work out what sounds good and what’s on sale where you live…

Give or take, a small to medium living room... my new place, the main living space is open plan, so it's like kitchen, dining, living in a 17X36 room, it's enormous, I have a Q800 with add on rear's and it's loud but it's not a "cinema experience" per se, the extra space stops you getting that percussive impact from the sub and there is an imbalance between the left and right channels because one of them bounces off a wall and the other disappears into the ether. You want larger speakers with greater capability to move air, capturing the full range of sound. In my second living room, I have a 12X12ish room that is fairly soft, and I have a JBL 800 in there, and that thing fucking crushes. The space is better for creating immersion

If you like the sound of jbl I will recommend jbl 800 or jbl 1000 with rear speakers but they are a bit pricey

I would go with the Q990F, I have Q990B in my room and a JBL 800 in the living room, for me the samsung better tho the JBL gets the job done.

Can personally recommend JBL 800 if you’re after a sub and some optional surround that can double as either broadcast or nighttime listening.
