So was browsing on Gadget Tree for cheap replacement as my old AKG – K712 pro headphones broke accidently. I kept on seeing Wireless headphones, wireless i HATE WIRELESS especially when I just use headphones for home use only for films/games/music production. And none of these so called wireless headphones comes with the Jack connection to plug into my audio interface while this one does. First impressions wow these do not fit me then i released you can make headband longer so if you got big head you got nothing to worry about. Sound quality not bad at all, not as good as a expensive one I had but you can def hear/feel the bass coming out of the headphones so that’s a plus. It does feel cheaply made but I don’t care about that all when the sound quality is decent enough Only brought these until I can afford to buy expensive ones, I’m glad I got these and will be good spare headphones 8 people found this helpful

Glad I got this at a lower price! It’s got a great rich sound,one of the best I’ve heard. However, I can only connect it to Bluetooth, it will not connect to WiFi. I’m not particularly bothered about Alexa and Google, but I’ve heard the sound quality is better on WiFi and the JBL app is pretty useless. Great looking and well built, just WiFi issue for me drops a star. One person found this helpful

Bought this mainly as a music player in my kitchen. Thought it was a bit pricey but it has been reduced so took a chance and glad I did. I can plug my ancient Fiio mp3 player into the aux and works great. I can Bluetooth my phone and play music from Spotify. I can also ask Alexa to play music and (because that’s how I’ve set it up) Spotify on my phone is accessed via the Wi-Fi. I haven’t used an RJ45, although that is an option. The audio sounds great. The bass is full and the treble is adjustable on the JBL app (or the Alexa app if you access the JBL from there… I think). The instructions were basic but useful. No remote control, which might have been an option, but you can ask Alexa to turn it down. Also works with Google, although I haven’t tried that option. 100 watts. If that isn’t enough the Echo Studio might be more your thing at 300 watts. Personally this is way loud enough for my purposes. A sturdy carry handle if you want to move it around. 3 people found this helpful

December 2024 Style Name: JBL Authentics 300 Tremendous rich sound with as much bass as is required if you want it. Careful it’s the size of a shoebox and heavy that’s why the bass is so deep

So we have a Bose Revolve bluetooth speaker but needed a second Blue tooth speaker. I was impressed whenever I heard the UE Megaboom speaker and I could audibly tell the difference, albeit initially in louder party atmosphere. My son’s girlfriend had one too, which when played side by side sounded better than the Bose revolve. Note, both those units are over 4 years old. So I was convinced and bought the new Megaboom 4. On immediate playing I couldn’t believe my ears but I was disappointed, so I used the UE app. and tried it with the EQ. in search of a better clarity, but I wasn’t convinced. So I played the same songs on Spotify from two iPhones to each speaker and compared the output – The Bose was better!!. WE then got the Old Megaboom and tested it the same way with the new Megaboom, conducting blind tests, with the same songs etc., the Older Megaboom was better every time! And that older unit had been through 3 years of Uni. student life too!! So, did the new unit have a fault- I hope so? Anyway , I sent it back and bless Gadget Tree for accepting it. I’m now considering the UA Everboom instead…… 4 people found this helpful

February 2025 Style Name: JBL Authentics 300 My first JBL speaker, its a lovely size and look for indoors and outdoors. Impressive sound. Connect with Alexa etc, all fine.

My old Bose speaker just gave up and I needed a replacement. I tried another one from a reputable manufacturer but some songs just lacked a deep thumping base while also having super rich and vibrant vocals / instruments. However, this JBL Authentics 500 is just absolutely, completely and utterly amazing! Music sounds like it should – it’s High-Fidelity (Hi-Fi) sound rated – the generation of portable speakers don’t really make the mark and sound like tin cans when compared this… (sorry Bose…) Worth every penny…

I was torn between this and the Orange Box, which I loved, and wanted! But due to lack of availability, I kind of reluctantly bought the JBL Authentics 300. I just wanted a speaker for the home. For me, I don’t need it to be a camping speaker, or a beach speaker. I wanted a great listening experience around the house, and I’d narrowed it down to these two speakers to fit that brief. Initially I was disappointed, the box was noticeably damaged (I took photos of the damage, as I was so concerned), and at first glance the contents looked as though it had been re-packed, and therefore someone’s return. This had been an important speaker choice for me, and worrying about whether it was a repackaged return, took the initial edge off my purchase. I was paying for a brand new product after all. But as I carefully unpacked the unit, I was comfortable that the speaker was still unused, with important protective wrapping still intact. Every professional review I have read of this unit, all agree that it is very much a looker! And once it was fully unwrapped, I one hundred percent agree, the JBL Authentics 300 is a gorgeous speaker! It has elegance, class, heft, and everything about it says serious quality. And I have to admit, it looks better settled in the home than the Orange Box could ever have done (let’s face it I wouldn’t have bought the black version of the Orange Box! It’s just wrong!) But I buy speakers for the sound quality. On first listen via Bluetooth, I wasn’t disappointed. The sound was as gorgeous as the aesthetics! Rich, clear and open. I took it all over the house in the next few days, and it sounded just as good. It made my Audio Pro C5A sound thin! So I was very VERY happy with my purchase. After three days, I decided to listen through Wi-Fi via the JBL One app, rather than just Bluetooth. Linking to my Tidal account was easy, and from the first moment, my listening experience was transformed. My music was now even more rich, clear and open than before. I knew that Wi-Fi should offer sound quality improvements, but I’d had no idea how much better the sound would be!! I have a nice home hifi set up, Rega and Dali, and I know the JBL can never sound as good. But for the absolute convenience that streaming brings, especially via Tidal and Wi-Fi , I can see my Authentics 300 being my primary go-to listening of choice! (And of course the Orange Box doesn’t offer Wi-Fi connectivity.) There may be a better sounding speaker out there, but you’d have to pay a lot more for it. And the Law of diminishing returns, and the imperfections of the human ear, means this will remain my perfect speaker. For what I’m prepared to pay, I know I will not find anything better than this gorgeous sounding speaker. This is my sixth Bluetooth speaker, and although I love the others, not every album I listen to, sounds good on every speaker. As an example, the ‘wall of sound’ intensity of some Devin Townsend Project music is too much for some speakers. Not the JBL Authentics 300. It sounds fantastic. Everything does! I have not found any music that doesn’t sound fantastic on the JBL. Despite having the edge taken off on arrival, I am totally thrilled with this fabulous speaker. In some reviews one or two ”expert critics” seem determined to find flaws, but I consider myself to be a serious listener, with very high standards when it comes to hifi, and I’m blown away by the JBL Authentics 300. Have no hesitation, just buy and enjoy! 22 people found this helpful
