If you’ve ever wished for true home theater sound without filling your living room with speakers and cables, the JBL BAR 1000MK2 is your dream come true. This is a full-blown 7.1.4-channel Dolby Atmos and DTS:X soundbar that delivers spine-tingling immersion — all from a sleek setup that barely takes up space.

The star of the show? Wireless, battery-powered surround speakers that you can place wherever you like. They create a genuine 3D sound bubble with real width, height, and depth — so explosions actually feel like they’re happening around you, not just in front of you.

The included wireless 10” subwoofer provides the deep bass, so you can also feel movie effects and explosions in your diaphragm.

And when it’s time for bass, the wireless 10-inch subwoofer steps up with deep, punchy lows that you can literally feel in your chest. Whether it’s a blockbuster action scene or a quiet dialogue, everything sounds more alive, more cinematic, and more effortless.

A True Cinema Setup — Without the Setup

You don’t need a rack full of AV gear to get home theater performance anymore. With the BAR 1000MK2, everything just works. The system automatically powers on and off with your TV, and you can even use your regular remote to control the volume.

The JBL BAR 1000MK2 is a powerful and well-performing 7.1.4-channel TV soundbar that supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X surround sound.

Built-in Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Chromecast, AirPlay, and Bluetooth mean your phone instantly becomes your music hub. Stream whatever you want — from playlists to podcasts — and fill the room with sound that’s as rich and dynamic as it is wireless.

Surround Sound That Moves With You

JBL’s detachable rear speakers are a genius piece of design. Each has its own built-in battery, giving you up to 10 hours of wireless surround sound. Just undock them from the soundbar and place them behind you when it’s movie night.

Unusually, the two included surround back speakers for the BAR 1000MK2 are each powered by their own built-in battery. You can freely place them behind your listening position and use them for extra great surround sound for up to 10 hours.

When you’re done, snap them back onto the bar — they’ll recharge automatically and double as extra side channels. You can even use them independently as portable Bluetooth speakers. Want music in the kitchen or garden? Just grab them and go. Pair them for stereo, and they’ll even replace your old Bluetooth speaker with something far more versatile.

You can also route TV sound to the rear speakers only — perfect for watching late at night without waking the kids.

Add Even More JBL Power

Thanks to Auracast Bluetooth, the BAR 1000MK2 can connect to other JBL wireless speakers. You can turn a JBL PartyBox into an extra subwoofer or spread additional speakers around the room for an even more intense surround experience. The options are almost endless — it’s a sound system that can grow with you.

The JBL BAR 1000MK2 turns on and off with your TV, and you can control the volume with your existing TV remote. Everything is automatic, so you can focus on enjoying the great sound.

Style Meets Simplicity

You can mount the soundbar on the wall using the included brackets or simply place it under your TV. JBL even includes a drilling template to make installation foolproof. The whole setup looks discreet and elegant in its matte black finish — until you hit play, and it absolutely roars to life.

The JBL BAR 1000MK2 proves that great home theater doesn’t have to be complicated. You get huge, cinematic sound, real wireless freedom, and smart flexibility in a package that fits your living room and lifestyle.

Whether you’re watching Dune 2, gaming through Call of Duty, or just streaming Spotify, this soundbar turns every moment into an experience.
