Nice video.I have the jbl bar 5.1 which you reviewed.Do you consider this bar 1000 a worthy upgrade and is there any difference in bass performance?
This was a really good and proper review, well done
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I’m in Australia and bought it yesterday looking for some thumping bass but a bit disappointed so far unless I’m missing something. Bass at level 5 with EQ at max bass.
32 is max volume and you start to feel the bass at around 24.
Basically upto vol at 20 it sound a bit flat.
Any suggestions on EQ or other setting?
For comparison, tried Bose 900 with 700 bass module where bass can be felt even at lower volumes.
How do you change the setting from dolby atmos to dolby surround?
Hi, Thanks for your review, I was going to integrate this into a media wall, so will be slotted into the wall. There won’t be a huge gap above it, worried about the speakers on the top. Will I be OK or better looking elsewhere? Thanks in advance.
You definitely don't want to be integrating a soundbar with upward firing drivers into a cabinet or wall!
Glad you liked the review.
Quick question, does the soundbar pass through 50hz content as broadcast here in the UK. Saw a forum post from someone saying it only works for 60 hz content?
Not sure, sorry! But it should do.
Hi there! Can you recommend me a good sounding soundbar that will elevate the sounds of my TV for music and movies under $300 USD please?
Hi, do you recommend Bose 900 kit and 700 module or Jbl bar 1000?
Neither see the video and read the description!
Good video thanks. I have money for bar 800.. not for 1000. Bar 800 has no dts codec. I watch 4K netflix and 4k blu ray. Will no dts codec be a problem. Anyone can answer please?
If it have Dolby Atmos you don't need DTS. 🤷🏻♂️
how long are the batteries going to last in rear speakers before there vworn out. eg . how many charges in there life time
No idea, best asking JBL!
Beautiful amazing video. I am drooling now and i cant wait to buy this in best buy :))))) YAY!!!!!
Pleasure, glad you enjoyed it!
Im between the JBL Bar 1000 or the LG S95QR to my new Lg Oled C4 77", what would you pick? Thanks and cheers!
@@pedro_ferreirinha can't comment about LG products as they only work with paid influencers, so can suggest the JBL or Samsung as per the video!
How can I turn on/off PureVoice setup? I didn't find any dedicated command.. Thanks!!
Check the manual!
Amazing video, I had a quick question. For the digital sound out should it be PCM, auto or pass through?
@@malcolmmonserrate5179 thanks! I'd put it in auto!
@@TotallydubbedHD oh and why is that so? Mine is the same JBL bar 1000, and is auto the best?
@@malcolmmonserrate5179 as you're not forcing a certain bitrate to be used but rather letting whatever the source is do its thing. ie. if you have Atmos, Auto will pick that up, but if you set it to PCM (lowest quality), you'll never get the higher quality metadata.
I wish there was a soundbar that sounds as good as the samsung q990c and has the same bass as jbl soundbar😊
I am confused in between samsung hw-q990b and jbl 1000 can you please suggest me the best one please
Yeah sure, watch the review lmao
Samsung
JBL 1000 pro or Philips Fidelio b97/10 wchich one ???? I have a JBL 5.1 and it only loads with bass, it lacks subtlety and detail when I want something heavier to listen to. The satellites at the back are too quiet for me. 😑
Not tried the other so can't comment. Suggest watching the video and reading the description.
I just purchased this sound bar for $849 on Amazon during Prime Day. Love it so far.
Happy days, enjoy!
I purchased mine two days ago for $650. there are deals out there.....
@@affolter210just bought mine on Black Friday for $600.
@@affolter210where do you buy it?
Be mindful of fake JBLs out there. Especially the really cheap ones compared to the prices in JBL official site
Sennheiser ambeo max paired with SVS subwoofer sounds incredible in the line up of sound Bars
Do you have that combo?
I'm thinking about buying these speakers, but I'm interested in whether it's possible to connect them to a desktop computer, please answer if anyone knows
Guess you could over optical, but not sure why you'd get something like this for PC
@@TotallydubbedHD ok, it can be used on a TV, tablet, or smart phone, I know that, but I was wondering if it could also be used on a desktop computer, since I want to replace the existing speakers, and I'm really interested in these
Great review...thanks...i have a question pls. I heard someone say that if your tv has ARC but no ATMOS sound, the rear speakers will have no sound! Is that so? And if you do have sound, will it be in atmos effect? Thanks
That's incorrect, even over regular Dolby Digital (terrestrial TV) you'll have the rear speakers in operation - of course, when in the right sound mode. But no, it won't be the Atmos effect, that'll only be the case with the right signal (ie Atmos metadata).
Glad you enjoyed the review!
@@TotallydubbedHD thanks for your answer...keep up the good work
@@michaelmock4587 thank you!
So basically my tv has ARC but no atmos but i have the full NETFIX bundle that transmits Atmos if you tv supports it, will i have Atmos coming out of the soundbar if NEXFLIX is transmitting Atmos although my tv does not support it? If not, is it worth buying the soundbar jbl 1000 if your tv does not have Atmos?
@@michaelmock4587 so if your TV doesn't support Atmos, then unfortunately just like me, the only way to really benefit from Atmos etc is to use a 4k Blu-ray player and have that connected to the soundbar via HDMI IN, which in your case isn't going to work as you're watching via Netflix.
To answer your question: the 1000 is inferior in a few ways over the 1300, regardless if you have access to Atmos or not. So, that's up to you to decide!
do you have a budget compact atmos soundbar recommendation?
Budget? Not really. But recommendations are in the description!
@@TotallydubbedHD thanks
Where are”smart mode and pure voice” to choose?
are the detachable speakers back surrounds or normal surrounds?
Depends on the signal - upscaled on stereo, surround on 5.1/Atmos content; at least that's the way I've experienced it!
So the bluetooth is bad? I was thinking of buying a projector instead of tv and mainly use bluetooth for connection. Is this a bad idea?
Yup, in pretty much every soundbar I've reviewed it's a massively degraded experience (let alone latency).
@@TotallydubbedHD Damn thanks for taking time to reply man! Appreciate it, I just found your videos but I love them so much, I love that you give your opinion and that you have alternatives and that you compare.
So the projector would be on the table in front of us, but can the sound bar be there too or is that a bad placement of the sound bar?
@@ESCBops no worries, glad you've enjoying my content!
As for the placement, it could be fine but would depend on the soundbar in question.
If my room has 22 foot high ceilings, is the upangle speakers useless? Do they need a lower ceiling to work effectively?
Very high ceilings will be an issue for upward firing speakers, yes. Just think of how sound travels.
@@TotallydubbedHD The real question is what kind of issue? Will it just not be effective and not noticeable? Or will it be delayed enough that it will mess up the sound that is hitting my ears directly. Direct sound would only travel 10 feet from the front speakers and maybe 4 feet from the rear speakers to reach me. The upfiring sound waves would travel about 40 feet (20 feet up, 20 feet down). at 767 mph, what is the impact to a listener?
@@douglass1221 I don't have first hand experience as I don't have really high ceilings, but naturally the sound won't be as involving and if there's no room calibration, it might also sound delayed/off.
Bir sorum olacaktı. Yanları her çıkardigimizda mi caliber etmemiz gerekiyor yoksa bir kez caliber etmemiz yeterlimi. Teşekkürler
Calibrated once is all you need to do.
@@TotallydubbedHD Bu çok iyi. Çok teşekkür ederim.
No worries!
Any issues as such in JbL 9.1, rear speakers disconnection?
Not that I had
Never had a disconnection
JBL bar 1000 vs Samsung hw-q990c
Which one is better for movies and music? I know that for music only, classic stereo would be better, but I cannot fit both...
I can see both of those at almost same price currently.
The Samsung.
When you play non Dolby Atmos content for example watching TV or TH-cam videos or play mp3 music. There's no sound coming out from those rear speakers at all. Is that true?
Depends on your setting you've set - in my case, they were always in use no matter the content being played!
Can you confirm the 3 HDMI in ports are HDMI 2.1? Have you tested it with an Xbox Series X or a PS5 at 4K@120Hz with HDR and VRR?
I've not tested it myself as I don't game on console, but I've been told by JBL that all ports are 2.1 - I asked the question directly to them, as there was no info that I could find online.
@@TotallydubbedHD Thanks for the reply. I hope someone will put this claim to the test though, as I think for a lot of people it could be a crucial criteria if the soundbar could become their media hub, instead of their tv. Especially for LG TV owners who can't get DTS:X passthrough with their tv.
@@thierry2720 agreed
Please see the comments below, there is even a link to a video where XSX shows that the 4k/120HZ pass-through doesn't work. See the JBL BAR 1000 thread on avforums, there is also everything described exactly what signals can be pass-through. 4K/120HZ definitely doesn't work. I have this soundbar and I checked everything thoroughly. If anyone thinks otherwise, please prove it. Max signal in 120HZ pass-through is 1080p with VRR and 1440p without VRR. This information is also confirmed by official JBL support. 4k/120HZ is only possible in configuration . Console > TV > Soundbar configuration
@@lekki26 will report to JBL and ask to see what they say; my contact works for JBL (isn't the PR) and is technical.
Pls suggest me if to buy samsung soundbar Q990b or this Jbl 1000 if i get Q990b at price point of $980.
Please watch the video. Smh.
@@TotallydubbedHD No pls read my question fully. Is it worth to buy Q990b at price point of $980 over jbl1000 at $1,199?
Samsung🎉
Any brand can dethrone samsung - the bugs and subwoofers now are horrendous.
Which is better Samsung Q990B or JBL1000?? Or BOSE900 OR SONOS
Have you watched the video?
Does the sound bar have to be powered on for the detachable speakers to get charge up, or will they trickle charge even when the sound bar isn’t on or being used? Thx
They charge even when the main bar is off (standby)!
@@TotallydubbedHD Great, thank you. Is there any indicator for when the wireless speakers are getting low on power? And you get about 8-10 hours of use before needing to charge up again?
@@tundrawhisperer4821 a red light flashes, would suggest reading the manual for more info.
@@TotallydubbedHD Thank You again. I wish I had a manual for this to read. I purchased brand new, but like many things in electronics these days no paper manual included and I’m not sure where you find the manual online.
Just found the manual to download, Thank You again!
the main selling point for this sound bar are the wireless detachable rear speakers. what other alternatives are there that have this feature?
Yes, Samsung make a few - see the description
@@TotallydubbedHD Thanks for quick reply, I looked at the soundbars in the description but they have wires attached to them either by needing a power supply or wired to the subwoofer. Very limited options, still, thanks for good review.
edited for grammar
@@carloschavez-vk4by sorry, I'm not sure why I missed that fact. Indeed, all of the alternatives do have a wire. But some, like the HK 1100 will have speaker surrounds (same with Sonos for example). But they aren't officially part of the soundbar system, if that makes sense?
The only other one I can think of though, is ironically the JBL 1300/1300X.
You're right, guess there isn't enough demand for it yet@@TotallydubbedHD
I’m thinking of buying the Jbl sound bar,do you think it’s worth spending the extra money on the 1000 instead of the 9.1 is there much difference in the sound thanks
Yes because it has more rear speakers
Careful to check those HDMI pass through ports think 9.1 supports 60hz 4k. JBL 1000 120hz 4k. So if your running ps5 or next gen consoles you might have a problem with JBL 9.1
@@pjdilans1 I'm not a gamer , I watch more movies if anything
@@cbeattie778 nah me neither really just one of those things which either its critical to the individual as of right now if they are a gamer. Still think its a notable consideration for futureproofing, which is why you spend the extra really. The extra HDMIs on the 1000 are nice too makes it a central hub unit.
@@pjdilans1 thank you. I do game a lot. So that's a good advice for me. I have to look at it. Again
Thank you!
Jbl bar 9.1 for 700€ or Jbl bar 1000 for 1000€? Which should i choose? Mainly movies & music. Is the '1000' worth extra 300€?
Nope, I'd pick the 9.1
I bought JBL 9.1 2 years ago. I was thinking if there is a significant upgrade from Bar 1000 because I prefer to have HDMI 2.1 for gaming. Is it worth to upgrade or should I wait for something like Samsung Q990C? (Sony soundbars have HDMI 2.1 but they are too expensive)
I'd personally wait/save up if you've already got the 9.1
@@TotallydubbedHD I see, thanks for your opinion! I will wait for reviews of Samsung Q990C.
@@diksonh no worries!
Do you heb hissing in the rear spekers ?
The soundstage will be wider due to the side firing tweeters on the main bar.
Such an informative review ! One video to understand it all.
Thanks .
I am from India and I listen to lot of Indian songs. I see that jbl 9.1 mids and trebles are not so effective in Indian songs. Will it be worthy of an upgrade to 1000 ?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
I can't see this being a massive upgrade over the 9.1. I'd consider the Samsung or HK system instead (links in the description).
@@TotallydubbedHD awesome ! I value your suggestion. Keep up entertaining the world.
@@simplySumne pleasure and thank you!
Is the JBL 1000 worth to spend extra price over JBL800?? for sound quality
Yes definitely. Two more up firing speakers and two more side firing speakers in the Bar 1000. Also Bar 800 doesn't have DTS X codec, which many people on TH-cam fail to mention !
Sound bars are so frustrating for me. I found that either they stupidly only have an HDMI ARC input and no "regular" input to hook up my Oppo 205 (I'm looking at you Deviolet!).. or require use of their crappy included subwoofers.. or have huge rear speakers I have no room for. I have a state-of-the-art dual 10 sub table that I would be using...so it would be nice to find a quality all-in-one soundbar with good sound for the main audio range that allows use of that.
Off the top of your head, do you know which soundbars you reviewed or are aware of that allow connection to my OWN device? I know both Sennheiser models offer that along with I believe a Denon and maybe a Yamaha...but that's all I can think of.
Maybe I'll just put a second mortgage on my house and pick up a B&O Theater. You need to get that one in for reviews :-)
Yup, those are the ones that come to mind and frankly if you have a sub, I'd truly suggest getting the beafy Sennheiser model. It'll blow everything out of the water.
Not tried that B&O, but basing my experiences of the Stage, it'll have to be a truly remarkable experience vs the Sennheiser to get any sort of recommendation from my part (especially for the price!)
@TotallydubbedHD thanks for reply. I read your two reviews between the Max and the Plus, and everything you bought it on the max you seem to imply they let you down on the plus ( namely mid-range quality). I would really have to work some magic with my current TV and audio rack situation to handle that Max but may be worth the trouble. Obvious just I'm looking at it it's going to be much more potent than the plus.
Yeah for obvious reasons, I really want to re-use this that I got for a closeout price of about a grand...to match my front speakers:
The SubTable subwoofer lists for $2,550 and consists of two 10-inch bass drivers powered by its own internal amplifier. The subwoofer responds from 24-120Hz, with a variable crossover from 50-100Hz, and includes features such as high and low level inputs, an auto-on trigger and auto-off timer, master volume control, a phase-inversion switch and a proprietary, thermodynamic cooling tunnel that hides the amp and wiring in addition to improving heat dissipation. The SubTable measures 24 inches high x 24 wide x 29 deep and weighs 145-160 pounds.
@@scottmuhlbaier1945 Jesus! That's a beast. Would love to own something like that one day! Btw on the Sennheiser front, remember you can also mount it on the wall, so if that's plausible it might make the aesthetics better
Did you use the auto calibration before your sound evaluation?
Yup, tried with and without.
@@TotallydubbedHD awesome
Can we play Dolby Atmos dtx via Bluetooth ( I don't have a TV and have paired ipad ) .. please let me know .. seems as if the rear speakers seems rubbish 😰😰😰😰😰
Nope
@@TotallydubbedHD thanks mate , does the rear speakers used as standalone .. I want to use them during my work paired to my laptop / phone .. is that possible , how ?
@@susmusmanoj112 nope, not possible!
The rear speakers on the 1300 can be used as standalone. One or both paired.
ESP: Hola me compré ésta barra de sonido y estoy maravillado, al principio le daba 8.5/10 pero eso era porque lo escuchaba vía bluethood o con su canble HDMI por defecto que no es Ultra Hight Speed, al momento de comprar un HDMI 2.1 La experiencia aumentó drásticamente, tanto q ahora le doy 10/10 por su nitidez y potencia...

Bro pls tell I've been saving money for a year now to buy a good soundbar, I'm super confused between this and q990b/c
Where i live they dont have any live demos only through online i can buy
Im kinda audiophile and bass is not my top priority so do music but watching atmos movies, series, gaming with awesome dialogue clarity will be my main thing, i want ultimate theater like experience!!
Jbl wireless surround is that even good as samsungs? Cuz im worried that might sound plain or bad and dont know if it will be convenient to plug in to charge and again put it on back or this will be more useful than I'm thinking??
Hard earned money I barely make 500$/m that's why very concerned about spending this much on a soundbar
Please reply me cuz i dont wanna wait anymore, saved tons of movies/series to watch on this huge setup
Btw i watched this video and every video i can find on youtube still i need a personal opinion, by going through the comments here some JBL fans dethroning samsung while in many videos q990b sounds solid king !
I suggest you watch my latest video, which is of the Q990C. Comparisons are made, inch on this video
Did anyone has experience with these detachable surround speakers on its power backup in reality?
I use them every day. What is your question
How long u can use once it is charged. And how long doest it tke to charge....for me its looks deal breaker@barbatosrex9473
Can you turn off the subwoofer in the app. Like Bose does
Not that I'm aware. Not sure why you'd want to do that anyway?

@@scottheathsh ah, why not just enable night mode? That severely limits bass response.
Jbl bar 1000 or Samsung q800c with add on rear speakers?
800c with rears is very similar to the Bar 1000.
@@TotallydubbedHD I went with the 800c! I figured it’s better for me being that I’m a huge movie guy and will almost never have need of separating and putting back together the Jbl soundbar pieces. Also from what you say in your videos, the Samsung has a better stage scape sound or something like that.
@@ericpalahniuk6013 yup! Enjoy!
This or samsung ?

Would be great if TCL send me their products.
So I am confused in between Samsung q990b and JBL 1000 bar. Mainly into movies, shows and games (playstation/xbox). TV is LGs oled.
The price difference is not much so that is not an issue...
Please help me out.
Did you watch the video?
Stay away from Samsung sound bar...go for Sony, Sennheiser or Bose if budget permits or stick to JBL
@@TotallydubbedHD yes I did and also checked your samsung review. From the looks of it...samsung is better than jbl bar 1000. Correct me if I am wrong but samsung did sound better than bose 900 bar too.
@@ag564 i have already tested bose bar 900 (max my budget) and I found samsung and jbl to be better as an overall experience for that price.
It is either jbl or samsung but by the reviews...samsung q990b beats jbl bar 1000 easily.
@@nomad2912rohit not tried that Bose model so can't comment!
Has a lot of problems with the right speaker and also a lot of overheating problems.
Why are sound bars so high priced?
Some cost as much as the TV itself or even higher.
Aren't they just regular speakers made in fancy gourmet style?
Well to many, sound is as important as vision :)
I just bought the Samsung 990 and it sound flat and bad. I returned it and continued to use my old Harman AVR with 5.1 system. What a pitty, that a good AVR costs the same like a good soundbar...
Maybe you had something not setup correctly? Shouldn't have sounded flat nor bad lol
@TotallydubbedHD Not Sure. I adjusted everything according recriminations and tried different setups. Maybe got a bad system. However, my 5.1 AVR system seems to be sufficient, only lacks Atmos.
@@Aki1991 fair enough, glad you're enjoying your old system.
Agree...I don't know how reviewers rate Samsung sound bar so high...it never pleased my ears...They make great TV and phone but definitely not great sound bar...
@@ag564 they're the best sounding systems out there for regular consumers. Of course there are better sounding bars but they're more expensive or don't come with a sub.
Listening to Dolby Atmos test on my 1.0.0 speaker phone
Haha!
I bought this on a decent sale at Best Buy. Got it home and struggled with the JBL One app. No matter what I did it would not connect. I tried everything on the JBL site for troubleshooting. After frustration with my Samsung flip 5 phone I tried with my wifes IPhone X. It was no go. I just ended up returning it. Why these sound bar makers don't just include all settings on the remote and be done with these phone apps, I don't know.
Weird that you had problems. My advice would have been to do a full factory reset, in case it was previously used by someone else - I've had that issue before too, but understandably it's only going to happen to used products, so not really relevant to those buying it new.
@@TotallydubbedHD Yes I did the factory reset thing a couple times. As I said, I followed all the troubleshooting tips on the JBL site. Any I returned it. It sounded good but I wasn't that impressed. Next week I'm going to pick up the Samsung Q990c and give that a try.
@@guitarman5560 unlucky, and enjoy!
Nice Review. I am thinking about buying JBL BAR 1300. After seeing your review on JBL BAR 1000 I am feeling bit skeptical now.
I tried the Samsung Q990B, but was not impressed with its BASS performance and returned it back.
Shall I go for JBL BAR 1300 or buy something else ? Please suggest me a sound bar with sub woofer. Thanks...
Glad you liked the review! Alas, I can't comment on the other model as I've not tried it, sorry! Have you considered the likes of the HK1100 + Sub or the Sennheiser Ambeo + Sub (if you've got the budget that is!)
