Our Verdict

JBL Bar 9.1

Sony HT-G700

The JBL Bar 9.1 is better than the Sony HT-G700. The JBL is a 5.1.4 setup that's better-built and offers better soundstage and surround performances. It reproduces a more extended low-bass, and it supports more wireless playback options. Unlike the Sony, it also has a room correction feature. However, only the 3.1 Sony comes with a dialogue enhancement feature.
