JBL Authentics 500 Hi-fidelity Smart Home Speaker Wi-Fi Retro Design

Features and Benefits

Superb sound and performance with Dolby Atmos® Music#
270 watts of 3.1 channel sound, with virtual Dolby Atmos® create a lifelike musical
experience that makes you feel like you’re hearing your music live—right from the
front row. Three 2.5mm tweeters and three 2.75” midrange woofers provide so much
clarity that every detail of your favorite song sounds brand new, while a 6.5” down
firing subwoofer and the patented SlipStream™ bass port extend the low end to a new
level of bass that you can feel. Dolby Atmos® Music content is available from compatible
streaming services in the JBL One app.

Inspired by retro design
The JBL Authentics 500 delivers the iconic style inspired by classic JBL heritage
designs, for a look that complements any room, easily filling even the largest space with
superior JBL sound. And the speaker’s premium aluminum frame, custom leatherlike enclosure, and reimagined Quadrex grille really show the attention we paid to
each visual detail, right down to the special JBL signature pattern surrounding the
downfiring woofer.
