JBL Bar MK2 7.1 and 2.1 Dolby soundbars with subwoofer have never been cheaper

The JBL Bar series has reached all time low price this Amazon Spring Day sale.

Home audio systems can truly enhance the experience you have, whether it is watching movies or listening to music. Recently we covered the Polk Audio MagniFi Max AX SR 7.1.2 Dolby Atmos system that is at a very good price of just $769. If you already have a soundbar or floorstanders or bookshelf speakers and want to add bass, then Klipsch has a couple of great deals on its 12-inch and 8-inch subwoofers.

Meanwhile JBL is also joining the party with its own offerings as the company's Bar 700MK2 7.1 and MK2 2.1 systems have hit all-time low prices (purchase links under the specs table down below).

Between the two, the Bar 700MK2 7.1 is clearly built with a cinema-first approach. You’re getting a true multi-channel layout with detachable battery-powered wireless surround speakers. Unlike soundbars that rely on digital processing to simulate surround, this one uses physically separate drivers placed around the room, so spatial effects feel more real. And this will also enhance the soundstage when listening to stereo content.

JBL also includes a dedicated wireless 10-inch subwoofer on the 700MK2 that should deliver deep, room-filling bass. The company claims the sub goes down to 35 Hz before rolling off steeply. The 2.1 MK2 also comes with a wireless subwoofer, though this one is smaller at 6.5 inches. As such, JBL says it is able to hit closer to 40 Hz.
