Can't decide on a soundbar

I have the Samsung UN55ES7100 TV. I mainly watch football, movies and play PS3. I'm looking for a powered soundbar that doesn't require a receiver or amp. I have the Polk PSW-111 sub I can use if the suggested soundbar doesn't come with one. I'm looking to spend no more than $600 or so as I have a $500 card for Crutchfield (making it $100 out of pocket). So far I'm considering the following, in this order. I'd love to ear some insight if anyone wants to share. I appreciate it.

JBL Cinema SB 400
Klipsch Icon SB1
Sony HT-CT260

This is a tough call. Now I am seeing info on this Z-Base 580? Kind of ugly but good reviews. Now I've got 4 to choose from. Leaning toward the JBL if anyone has experience with it.

And now the Energy Power Bar Elite! Man this is tough.

Anyone??

I think that Energy Elite may be basically the same as the SB1. Same manufacturer, Klipsch. And both have gotten good reviews.

Go with the Klipsch. It doesn't even compare to the rest. Stay far, far away from the Sony!

Go to a Best Buy - they have the Klipsch there so you can listen for yourself. It's AMAZING!
