Iconic retro design with a modern-day twist
Beautiful design inspired by famed JBL heritage. Taking inspiration from the legendary JBL L100 speaker from the 70s, the JBL Authentics range draws on JBL’s rich history with a modern twist. With a premium aluminium frame, custom synthetic leather-wrapped enclosure and a reimagined Quadrex grille, the JBL Authentics range is designed to make a statement.
Industry-first integration built with Amazon and Google
Introducing a new integration, built in collaboration with Amazon and Google that provides customers simultaneous access to their voice assistants on JBL Authentics speakers. Customers can choose to register both assistants to communicate with either Google Assistant or Alexa at the same time on the same device. With Google Assistant and Alexa available simultaneously, customers have the choice and flexibility to communicate seamlessly with both voice assistants and take advantage of their different capabilities, and switch between them for different activities. Once enabled, use either voice assistant to play your favorite music, control your smart home devices, set timers and alarms, and more, hands-free, using just your voice. Once the assistants are set-up on the JBL app, just say “Hey Google,” or “Alexa” to get started.
Experience everything from podcasts to Internet radio in stunning high definition. The advantages of a Wi-Fi connection don’t stop there. Stream music through AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music (MRM), Spotify Connect, and Chromecast built-in™ and leave the room or take a call without the music being interrupted. Can’t agree on a song? Place multiple JBL Authentics speakers throughout your home and set a different mood in every room. Or connect two or more to play a single playlist to get everybody enjoying the same beat.
Looking for great sound in every room? Automatic self-tuning calibrates and adapts the audio performance whenever the speaker is switched on, so you can sit back and relax knowing the sound will be optimized, no matter where you place the speaker.
