Enjoy retro style, amazing audio, and built-in dual voice assistants* anywhere in your home. With its custom leather-like enclosure, cast-aluminum handle, and reimagined Quadrex grille, the JBL Authentics 300 is a portable smart home speaker that makes a statement before it even plays a note. That classic retro look isn’t just for show—it carries real JBL heritage, right down to the signature pattern on the down-firing passive radiator. Sound-wise, it holds its own in any room. A pair of 1-inch tweeters, a 5.25-inch woofer, and a down-firing 6.5-inch passive radiator work together to deliver wide, detailed stereo sound with deep bass you can actually feel. Stream via Spotify Connect, Apple AirPlay, or Chromecast built-in, and your music follows the moment—even if you leave the room. Built-in Wi-Fi also means the speaker keeps itself updated automatically, so it only gets better over time. Want to skip a track without crossing the room? Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa run simultaneously* on a single device, so voice control is always ready, whichever assistant you prefer. And with up to 8 hours of battery life and an integrated handle, this wireless home speaker moves as freely as your day does—from the kitchen counter to the back porch without missing a beat. Retro look, modern soul—this is the JBL Authentics 300. *See notifications.
