So the Bose Smart Soundbar, the new one for 2024 / 2025, is bassicly identical to the Bose Smart Soundbar 600, except it now has AI. Now even though I am underwhelmed by this new upgrade, the Bose Smart Soundbar is still a solid mid sized soundbar to pick up. Nonetheless, today we’re going to see how it compares to other great options out there like the Sonos Beam Gen 2, JBL Bar 300 and the Sony HT-S2000.
So the JBL Bar 700 is a very impressive and very easy surround sound system in a box. You’ve got your sound bar, you’ve got detachable surround sound speakers which are battery powered so you dont have to worry about wiring them to power, and you have a wireless subwoofer as well. But today we’re going to see how this surround sound system compares to a more premium surround sound system, like the one that you can get from Sony.
So for the last months, the Bose Smart Soundbar has been my go to soundbar and its been my favorite soundbar to recommend. But today we’re going to see how both the JBL Bar 300 and Sony S2000, two relatively new soundbars for 2023, compare to the Bose Smart Soundbar 600. Overall, all three of these soundbars are very different from one another, so lets see which one is right for you.
So Sony’s sound bars have always been a good option for someone that wants a self contained sound bar but also has a ton of bass to it. But Sony’s Sound Bars were always very big and their app was lack luster. But now there’s the Sony HT-S2000, and I feel that this is the start of Sony’s new generation of sound bars that are sleeker and they have a much better app now.
