A true home cinema experience without wires, the 15 channel JBL Bar 1300 uses six up-firing drivers and HARMAN’s unique MultiBeam™ technology to create an immersive audio experience leveraging its sphere of Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X 3D surround sound. With its detachable wireless surround speakers and 10’’ wireless subwoofer, film buffs will experience next level audio whether watching movies, playing games or listening to music like never before.
