I just received my JBL authentic 300 a few minutes ago. FedEx just dropped it off at my doorstep. I now have it all hooked up. I have played some music on it already. It sounds very good. Glad I bought it. I love the white and gold color I see there’s not really that many reviews of this speaker so for people who is on the fence of whether to buy this speaker yes, you should buy it. You will not regret it very good. sound easy to set up and place anywhere in your house or apartment. also, I forgot to mention very good base meds and highs definitely worth the money for this speaker. thank you, Amazon and thank you to the merchant that shipped it all the way from the East Coast. it got here very quickly. and safe. Also, I forgot to mention the color of the speaker is not actually white and gold is actually cream and gold very beautiful ✌️🤪🤪 ... show more

    • Shocking audio performance
Style: Authentics 500 Color: Black/Gold
To give a bit of background I am an audiophile (a lover of music) and take my music quite seriously. I run some serious hardware from meze elite epoque headphones to legacy signature speakers. I say all this to give a bit of credit to my background on sound and knowing where a good set of transducers can take you. I recently changed my bedroom audio setup to move my floor standing speakers (old wharfedale diamond 9.5's) to acomidate my tv. This had the drawback of removing them from my echo and I needed a solution to provide the room with "good enough" audio that the little echo just could not muster. So I started my search for a new all in one voice assistant but did not want a second set of tower speakers in the room so I looked at the usual suspects. The echo studio, sonos, etc but none of them had what I was looking for when it came to sound quality. Enter the jbl 500 it was not on my radar at all but I stumbled across it in my searching. It had mixed reviews with an emphasis on the size of the speaker. Now for me coming from a set of tower speakers size was not the limiting factor. So I ordered one and had it at my door in no time at all. This guy was well packed and had a good presentation my only complaint is that the bass driver is exposed and you have to be cognizant not to put a finger through it as you lift it out of the box. This speaker has a good amount of weight for its size and feels well built. Physical setup is a breeze with one power cable and you are done. After that you need the app which is not the best but definitely not the worst I have used. In the app you will connect it to your wifi and then setup your voice assistants. This guy supports both google and alexa with the former being very easy to setup and the latter being a oddity. The google setup punched right in like any other google home device and setup was a breeze. The alexa app on the other hand just opened to a spinning circle with no errors. After contacting tech support I tried everything under the sun to get it to take and somewhere along the line fixed it. I am not sure if it was a wifi bug or just needed to run in for some time but after I tried the next day everything popped right in no problem. Now on to the sound... good golly this was not what I was expecting! This guy goes to show what modern tech has brought to the table vs my older diamond speakers. I started it on some tash music because I was not expecting much from this guy but what came belting out from this box was clean powerful sound. My first stop was "the used - in love and death" and there it was a musical tonality that I would described as playful or V shaped. The bass was plentiful but not overwhelming, solidly in the fun category but not drifting into bloated or slow territory. In short it sounded good, darn good... better than it had rights to sound given its size. So intrigued I switched from background music to my analytical music section to see if this was some kind of fluke. I popped on one of my favorites the live copy of "Fink - troubles what you are in" and gave this speaker my full attention. This speaker did not shirk from my critical ear as the acoustic guitar was crisp and you could distinctly pick out the difference between the sounds of his palm on the wood vs the cajon. I was gobsmacked, baffled, dare I say impressed. I tossed the kitchen sink of all the greats (steely dan, daftpunk, pinkfloyd, etc) at this box and it continued to impress. I was left wondering if I toss the diamonds in favor of picking up another one of these it is THAT GOOD. The fact that a single six inch driver could come even close to the range that four drivers of the same size is witchcraft. I love the sound profile that this uses with the heavy V shape. To me this is one of my favorites as it sets the toes a tapping and head a bobbing more than that holy grale flat profile. I would compare this to the fiio FH9 as something that I turn on and go "that sounds right" no tweaking or changes it just sounds like my ideal of what I want from music. If you made it this far into the review I commend you! If you just scrolled to the end for the TLDR buy it you wont be dissapointed. ... show more

    • Absolute Banger!
Style: Authentics 300 Color: Black/Gold
Review Image by mkazz mkazz
Love this speaker! Picked it up while it was on sale & it's an absolute blast! The sound quality is amazing with ample bass & just great for every day use with movies & music. Connectivity is also amazing with Wifi (Airplay & casting), Bluetooth & option for wired connection. The size is perfect for smaller apartments and can easily fit in smaller tv units. Setup was a breeze, through the JBL One app which lets you connect it Google Assistant or Alexa in addition to EQ settings. It's a perfect all in one speaker if you want to connect it to your TV while also having a smart speaker that you can use for other purposes. It's a beautiful but heavy speaker, so keep that in mind if you plan to transport it, battery life is not bad but definitely not on the bigger size, especially when you pump up the bass. It's definitely made to be a "home" speaker rather than one you transport frequently. ... show more

    • Great Execution of a One-Box Streamer
Style: Authentics 300 Color: White/Gold
Review Image by Austinbirdman Austinbirdman
We are very happy with this purchase. Normally, I only like true stereo set ups with two speakers, but our kitchen right now does not lend itself to any kind of decent configuration for stereo. Among the many options for single box streamers, this one stood out on paper, and it has delivered. Pros: - Easy to stream any and all sources (Spotify, Amazon, Apple etc) - high and stable connectivity through our Wi-Fi network - Super easy set up - Works through its own app or others - Roon-ready (key selling point for me) - Streams our music collection from a hard drive, in addition to streaming - Connects to devices via Bluetooth or WiFi - Plays Alexa or whatever else you use - Full sound for what it is, with decent mid-range and not at all tinny - comparable to a single speaker Sonos or Sonos Play 5 and certainly a lot better than your general Bluetooth speaker - Has a built-in battery in case you want to carry it out to the porch or backyard. - Very stable tech works every time Cons - Bass is overly pronounced. Many people will say this is a plus, and I think it’s made for these people I’ve owned three other single box speakers, from Sonos, Heos/Denon, and one from JBL, and this is the equal of any of them at a better price. They all lack the imaging of stereo. So it’s a limitation you have to decide you can accept going in. I don’t mind because we have the stereo set up in the room next-door. This works great in the kitchen for background listening. Really enjoy it. My wife, who is less particular about sound than I am, thinks it’s fantastic and tons better than her old Bluetooth speaker. ... show more
