JBL BAR, Polk Audio Dolby Atmos soundbars with wireless subwoofer cheapest on Black Friday

Black Friday 2024 sales hit early with Nakamichi being one of the first to officially announce it with its Dragon 11.4.6, Shockwafe 9.2.4, and Shockwafe 7.2.4 and 7.1.4 soundbar systems (Check the full list of recent audio deals here).

Now, more brands like Denon, that we covered earlier today, have also started offering their Black Friday discounts. We can check out its S760H and S970H AVRs here.

The discounts are available on 7.1.4, 7.1.2 as well as corresponding 5.1-based models (purchase links under the specs list below).

Up next we have several JBL BAR soundbars ranging from the JBL BAR 1000 down to the JBL BAR 9.1.

JBL BAR 1000 soundbar

JBL claims that its BAR 1000 model goes as low as 33Hz which is crucial for movie-watching or even some genres of music. The 10-inch subwoofer is rated at 300 watts of RMS power. The total power output of the system is 880 watts at THD (total harmonic distortion) of 1%.

Unlike the 7.1.4 JBL BAR 1000, the BAR 700 and 500 are 5.1 systems which means they lack true Dolby Atmos, but they can still provide an Atmos-like experience. DTS:X is also not supported. The BAR 700 and BAR 500 are rated at 620 watts and 590 watts respectively.

Interestingly, all three systems have similarly-specced subwoofers so if bass is what you are looking for and do not care about the surround or Atmos experience so much, you can opt for the cheapest BAR 500 too.
