I don’t know where to begin. First of all this is an incredibly versatile and dynamic system. The detachable rear surround speakers are a game changer! They’re wireless and can be fully charged when attached back on the main unit soundbar.
Depending on how much Dolby Atmos content you watch you may need to charge it each night before you go to bed or it may last 2-3 days before you need to charge. I know JBL states that the wireless speakers last for 10 hours but at least in my personal experience it feels closer to 12-14. It really depends on how home theater content you watch during the day and by home theater I mean specifically Dolby Atmos content.
Before I bought this system I thought having to charge the speakers each night before bed would be a pain. But it is quite the opposite. It’s actually painless and fun to charge and to attach or detach them from the main unit. It sounds like it would be cumbersome but trust me when you actually do it you realize how much of a breeze and easy it is to do!
The soundstage this thing produces is amazing! It has transformed my living room into a movie theater! The base is boomy and powerful but not too overwhelming and dialogue comes through perfect! Gaming is also out of this world! Just Buy it. Now!

The JBl Bar1300MK2 is AMAZING! The previous (Yamaha) soundbar I was using was great, but this JBL soundbar system truly makes you feel like you are in the movie or in a theater. The detachable speakers add so much depth and immersion while watching movies/shows. I have only had to turn it up to about 15-17 and it rocks. There have even been a few times when I was startled (in a fun way) by sound effects that felt as if they came from behind me. The bass is thunderous, but clear and crisp, yet subtle when it needs to be. Setup was as easy as plugging it in and downloading the app. I like that you can make adjustments to the sound settings for each of the speakers in the app. Watching movies at home has now gone up to a whole new level with this system!

This bar sounds great when playing a movie. The detachable rear speakers are convenient. I was hopeful they would also be great for music and give us the opportunity to move a speaker outside and to another room so we could enjoy throughout our home. The rear speakers don’t get very loud even when turning their volume to max. That feature is meh. Overall sound quality for music is fine, nothing to brag about, but movies sound great!

I had an LG sky9 and upgraded to this sound bar. The detachable a speaker are wondeful for surround and the atmos of them makes top gun maverick a different movie. We watched cars last night and the racing scenes where amazing with the detachable speakers. It connects nicely to my tv just had to add 132ms of delay but overall nicely packaged and great sound for our movies and tv enjoyment

Love this sound bar after trying 3 different sound bars and returning them i gave this jbl 1300mk2 a try and it did not disappoint the bass hits hard and the removable rear speakers are great no wires to deal with. If you are debating on witch one to buy try the jbl1300 mk2 first you won't regret it.

In my opinion, this sound bar should be solely used for watching big blockbuster movies, if you’re expecting this system to do it all I would recommend you research into other brands, for example Sonos, Samsung, etc.
