JBL Bar 1000 vs Samsung HW-Q990C

The Samsung HW-Q990C is a better overall setup than the JBL Bar 1000. The Samsung feels better-built, can get louder with less compression, and it has better surround as well as height performances. It also correctly supports a wide array of formats. That said, the JBL has unique truly wireless satellites, which some people may prefer, and you can charge them by connecting them to the ends of the bar.
