Thanks to the 6 upward-facing speakers, the sound is reflected to you via the ceiling. That way, it sounds like an airplane actually flies overhead.

completely new experience with beautiful sound

Deep bass
Nice clear sound
Sleek appearance
Bulky subwoofer needs power

The JBL Bar 1000 7.1.4 MK2 is incredibly easy to use and installs in under ten minutes. It connects instantly as soon as you turn on your TV – ideal. The sound is impressive: deep bass, clear, and powerful, perfect for movies, TV shows, and music. The only downside: the subwoofer needs constant power and is quite bulky, so if you value your interior, that's something to keep in mind.

Sublime sound, no practical design

Looking for a soundbar that transforms your living room into a movie theater? Then the JBL Bar 1000 MK2 is the perfect choice. The sound is impressive: powerful, crystal clear, and rich in detail. Thanks to Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, everything sounds more spacious, with effects that move around you. You're right in the middle of the action, whether you're a movie buff or just want to share the fun with the neighbors. This soundbar draws you right into the action. The subwoofer and rear speakers are wireless. This allows you to detach the two rear speakers from the soundbar and place them behind you during movie night. The subwoofer can be placed anywhere. All you need is a power supply.

The aesthetics are impressive: modern, sturdy, and it feels luxurious. However, if you mount it on the wall, it lacks a sleek look. It looks more like a bookshelf. The Bar 1000 MK2 juts out slightly, as if you've quickly added a shelf. It works, but it doesn't look as sleek as you might expect at this price. I also noticed that the speaker name kept disappearing via Spotify Connect. You had to change it in the JBL One app to get it back.

Then there are the detachable rear speakers. A clever idea on paper, but a bit of a hassle in practice. If you place them behind your sofa, they need to be connected to USB-C for power. So you still end up with exposed cables. A shame, because you want a neat set. Mounting those speakers isn't exactly a pretty sight either.

And yes, it's a hefty soundbar. You really need some space, because it won't fit under any TV without blocking a portion of the screen. The price is on the high side, but honestly: the sound makes up for a lot.

Conclusion

The JBL Bar 1000 MK2 is designed for anyone who wants top-notch sound and doesn't care about a super sleek finish. The sound is absolutely fantastic. It brings the cinema into your own home. Can you live with some visible cables and a less-than-neat wall mounting? Then you'll enjoy this every day.
