JBL has just introduced its latest soundbar series comprised of the JBL Bar 1300, Bar 100, Bar 800, Bar 500, and Bar 300 in the Philippines. These are designed to bring a new cinematic experience to your home with Dolby Atmos technology.
The five new soundbars are equipped with PureVoice technology, a voice enhancement feature that optimizes voice clarity for clearer dialogue even amidst loud sound effects.
Additionally, you can personalize the sound of the soundbars with the JBL One App. You can also control your speakers and stream your favorite tracks quickly. The soundbars can be operated through a voice assistant-enabled device like Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri.
All soundbars also have an easy sound calibration that you can access through the remote or through the app. Calibrating assures that the setup fits the room size for an optimal audio experience.
JBL Soundbar Series
The JBL Bar 1300 has the ultimate 3D surround experience with an 11.1.4 audio setup and two detachable speakers that can be used as standalone Bluetooth speakers. The soundbar has 11 front-firing speakers including two one on each of the detachable speakers. It also has a subwoofer and four up-firing speakers.
The Bar 1000, on the other hand, has a 7.1.4 audio setup with seven front-firing speakers, one subwoofer, and four up-firing speakers. It has detachable surround speakers but can’t be used as standalone Bluetooth speakers.
The Bar 800 has a 5.1.2 audio channel with only five front-firing speakers and two up-firing speakers. Despite fewer speakers, it can still deliver a Dolby Atmos experience.
Meanwhile, the Bar 500 has a 5.1 audio setup with no up-firing speakers but it comes with one subwoofer. To compensate for the lack of up-firing speakers, it features Multibeam technology that bounces sound around the room.
Lastly, the Bar 300 is the entry-level of the series with a 5.0 channel. Like the Bar 500, it has Multibeam technology. Despite not having a subwoofer, the Bar 300 delivers a punchy bass.
These are priced at:
- Bar 1300 – PHP 85,999
- Bar 1000 – PHP 59,999
- Bar 800 – PHP 47,999
- Bar 500 – PHP 34,999

All five soundbars will be available in the Philippines within the month.
