I finally went for the JBL 300 and it's very good! I regret not going with the Bose with its spatial up firing speakers for full Atmos effect, but the 300 has a virtual Atmos feature which is good enough. Not quite Bose, but for the money the 300 won. Plus its bass is good for a sound bar with no extra outside subwoofer. For our condo it's sufficient without our neighbors buggin' out. Peace...🙏♐
GOD ALMIGHTY!! Finally someone who gets right to the point and gives a DEMO!! You should get some kind of a RU-vid award for this… Seriously. I’ve spent 3 hours watching b.s. reviews. THANK YOU! 🥳🥳🥳
Great video, as always. Why have you not reviewed any LG soundbars? In the past, I've had Philips TAB6305, Sonos Beam 2, Bose soundbar 600, Philips TAB8507 and finally LG S75Q. It is by far the best soundbar I've ever had. And it costs so much less than Sonos and Bose. And for that price, it comes with a subwoofer. It will be nice for you to look into LG. They might surprise you.
Honestly, it’s cause of time. I wanted to include them but we can only cover so many things. This is why I’m pushing the hats and shirts. So that I can hire more people
Great Video, thank you, just a question, I have recently bought S2000 and I have connected my TV (ARC) with this soundbar. On the soundbar ( HEC ) app, I can see Dolby Atmos and sometimes on Netflix, 5.1 Dolby Atmos is visible. For this I have changed the sound output to PassThrough. Is this the best setting or I can leave the TV output to 2.1channel ? What was your best setting from TV ( I have ARC and not eARC ). thank you. Cheers.
Great video, I've seen many from you and love the comparisons. But I still can't decide between Bose 600 and Sony S2000. Bose sounds much better with voices. But can't you increase the volume of just the centre channel on the Sony? I despise modern films where you can't hear what the hell anyone is saying, and I always blame the film and the mixing (although they should do a far better job at stereo than they do) So will I hear better with the Sony or get the Bose? Currently Bose is £100 more
What I can tell listening to it through youtube processed audio and some low end €40,- wired sennheiser earbuds, the Bose sounds kinda hollow and tinny, piercing highs. The JBL has the punchiest bass, but doesn't shine anywhere else, the Sony sounds the most balanced but lacks clarity. Would you say this is accurate or did I completely miss the boat here?
Great video. Which soundbar would you recommend for watching movies on low volume, but to be able to hear the dialogues clearly? I was leading toward Sony's until you mentioned the dialogues on it are not clear when listening on low volume.
Hi, thank you for the content ... I am about to get my first soundbar and I narrowed my choices to Sony S2000 and Samsung Q800D ... I would really like to know your opinion and advice on this matter please.
Sony is saying when the new series of green bars come out they want to add airplay and chrome cast support. And with the app being updatable it will be coming.
Hi GYMCADDY! Thanks for the content-- please review the newly released Klipsch GIG XXL party speaker! (See how it stacks up to the JBL PB 110/310)! Thanks🎉🎉
Hi, you compared jbl 300 with bose 600. I watched the comparison between jbl 300 and 500, and I found the jbl 500 sounds much more better and I loved the base coming from it. What do you think between jbl 500 and bose 600? In my country, the jbl 500 cost much less than bose 600. Thanks alot for your advice.
I'm getting sick of everything needing apps, just wait til the companies stop supporting the products and the apps get unlisted. Just have a decent manual set up and the products will never be obsolete. Don't be a dimwit and buy into a "planned obsolescence" product.
Keep in mind the jbl is often on sale at almost half msrp. In which case the jbl would be the better value. Right now I can get the bar 300 for $400 vs the Sony at $650 and the Bose at $700. NZ$.
Hi Jim! Hope you are well there Can you please help me to choose between Sony A3000 SB with Sorround speakers and Subwoofer VS Bose SB 600 with Bass module 500. I have a Sony Bravia TV for your information. Thanks!
I recently purchased the S2000 and it’s going back for more than one reason. After doing a little research, I opted for the Bose 600. Wish I had seen your review before making the initial purchase but after your review I know now I made the right choice! However, there is one thing regarding the Bose app. I read that it’s mainly a music app. Does it include any TV settings other than dialogue? Will be receiving it in a few days. Thanks so much!
I believe it has a bass setting you can adjust on the app but won’t know if effective until I receive it. I’ll have to test the functions that I don’t like and consider flaws on the HT-S2000 with the Sony. Right now I’m leaning towards Sony but we’ll see.
@@briandprice1154 Is it the Bose that you have? If so, some say it gets too harsh at higher volumes and no bass. Of course this has me concerned especially the harshness. Can you adjust the bass for TV from the music app? Also, are there modes you can change for TV such as dialogue? I do like the app for the HT-S2000 with the different controls for TV but it’s got significant lag when changing modes especially when streaming, it will pause the video or take you out of the app entirely. It gets frustrating.
@@briandprice1154 I went back to the sound tests on this video. I had to listen very carefully to notice the differences. Seems that the S2000 produces more of a midrange sound among the 3. Better than the JBL but more mellow than the Sony. It was pleasant for me. I’ve continued just now reading more reviews on Bose. Seems there are several people complaining about connectivity issues having to reset frequently. That has not been a problem with the Sony. Bose also seems to produce a pop noise when switching modes. However, the Sony has quite a delay when switching. Evidently there are more cons with the Bose than initially thought. The app is also a little short on TV features as compared to the Sony. Once I receive the Bose, I’ll test it for a couple days and make my decision. Thanks for your help! It’s also encouraged me to do a little more research!
Nice to meet you. The HT-S2000 has recently been released in Japan and I am wondering if I should buy it. I think there are voice mode, surround field mode, and night mode. Is it possible to use voice mode and surround field mode together?
Hello. The question is for you - have you tested the Sony HT-S2000 and JBL BAR 300 soundbars. Write which one has bigger bass, high frequencies and which one sounds louder? Thank you.
