JBL\u00a0is one of the best companies when it comes to sound devices for the quality of its products, obviously there will be different categories that make it easier to choose the option that best suits you.\u00a0For this occasion we will talk about a complete sound system that is designed for those who are looking for a new experience in terms of audio quality.<\/p>\n

We are talking specifically about the\u00a0JBL Bar 800\u00a0, which is presented as an attractive option due to the combination of good features it offers.<\/p>\n

Exterior design of the JBL Bar 800<\/h2>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

It is quite similar to other models that we have already analyzed in terms of aesthetics, so there will not be many changes to mention.<\/p>\n

Although it does not have many changes compared to other systems in the same series,\u00a0we must say that aesthetically it seems to us that it presents a modern\u00a0and\u00a0elegant design at the same time\u00a0.\u00a0This allows adaptation to be easier in any space in the home where you want to place it.\u00a0Thanks in part to the dimensions it has.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The bar itself is approximately 80 cm long and 6 cm high.\u00a0That delivers a simple placement on a table or even being able to mount on the wall.\u00a0It should be\u00a0noted that the materials used for its construction are of a high quality\u00a0, and you could not expect less for the price it has.\u00a0It will be a strong and durable product.<\/p>\n

On the front we will see that the bar has a high-quality fabric grill that is responsible for covering the speakers and tweeters, a\u00a0detail that, to be honest, gives it a sophisticated\u00a0and\u00a0modern\u00a0look .\u00a0Above the bar you will find some tactile buttons that give you several options to control certain functions of the bar.<\/p>\n

We cannot forget that it includes a compact and easy-to-use remote control that provides features such as adjusting the volume, changing audio tracks and selecting different sound modes.\u00a0Due to the size of the controller you can easily store it.<\/p>\n

connectivity<\/h3>\n

In the back you will find the available connections with a simple location to access them without complications.\u00a0With the available connections, the aim is to satisfy the different needs of the users\u00a0.\u00a0This causes us to have a wide device compatibility, which allows the experience to be much better.<\/p>\n

This model\u00a0has an\u00a0HDMI\u00a0input , an\u00a0optical input\u00a0, a\u00a0USB\u00a0port and a\u00a03.5mm\u00a0input\u00a0.\u00a0These options allow for easy connection to TVs, Blu-ray players, game consoles, and mobile devices.\u00a0As if that were not enough, it provides Bluetooth\u00a0compatibility\u00a0, which provides wireless connectivity.<\/p>\n

The idea is to be able to transmit music and other content. We cannot forget that it is compatible with high-resolution audio transmission technology.\u00a0This delivers improved audio quality when connecting different devices.\u00a0Another striking function is the\u00a0HDMI CEC\u00a0control that allows you to control the bar with the remote control.<\/p>\n

Sound quality and functions in general<\/h2>\n

We find the\u00a0JBL Bar 800\u00a0excellent for your movies, TV shows and music as it sounds amazing.\u00a0This is achieved in part by its eight full-range speakers, along with its two tweeters.\u00a0Through this system, clear and detailed sound is delivered across the entire frequency spectrum.<\/p>\n

In addition to the technologies that it integrates, which are an important section.\u00a0Here we highlight the\u00a0JBL Surround Sound\u00a0, which uses digital signal processing in search of providing immersive audio that immerses you in the action in any content.\u00a0We find it an extremely effective feature for action movies and video games.<\/p>\n

This is because it provides an immersive and exciting experience at the same time.\u00a0Exploring in detail we find several modes that can be adjusted according to your preferences and the content you are watching or listening to.\u00a0A clear example is the night mode that reduces the level of bass\u00a0and\u00a0treble so as not to disturb your neighbors\u00a0.<\/p>\n

The dialogue mode is an option of great interest, since it increases the clarity of the voices.\u00a0It also offers an automatic adjustment that, as its name mentions, is in charge of automatically optimizing the sound for the different contents.\u00a0Echo cancellation helps reduce reverberations in a room, improving quality.<\/p>\n

Is it worth buying it?<\/h2>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

It will be a powerful sound system at a general level due to the quality it brings, added to a good optimization together with features that favor the final result.<\/p>\n

The decision to purchase the\u00a0JBL Bar 800\u00a0depends entirely on your preferences and needs, although as you can see it is a high-quality sound bar that is also versatile.\u00a0In general terms, it gives us a fairly clear sound that provides a unique experience, especially if you have tried a similar system.<\/p>\n

In case your needs are not many, surely it is convenient for you to acquire a cheaper option, unless the budget is not a problem for you.\u00a0For its range it seems to us to be one of the best alternatives,\u00a0but to be honest it maintains a high price that not many can afford\u00a0, so quite a good thing.<\/p>\n
