JBL's Bar 700 Mark 2 offers a flexible approach to home audio by combining an all-in-one soundbar with detachable rear speakers. The modular design lets users dock the rear speakers to the main soundbar for charging, then remove them for use as independent surround speakers when watching movies or playing games.

This hybrid approach bridges the gap between traditional all-in-one soundbars and full multi-speaker surround systems, giving buyers the option to switch between compact single-unit mode and immersive surround sound without needing a separate power solution for the rear speakers.
