Looks Amazing! Sounds Amazing!
I fell in love with my JBL Authentics 300 the moment I laid eyes on it! The retro design is absolutely stunning, and the build quality is top-notch. But what really gets me is the sound - it's rich, clear, and immersive. I've streamed music from my phone, laptop, and even used voice assistants to control it, and it's always a breeze. The JBL One app makes it easy to tweak settings and get the sound just right. My only minor gripe is that the battery life could be better, but honestly, I've been using it mostly indoors so it's not a deal-breaker for me. Overall, I'm so glad I invested in the Authentics 300 - it's become my go-to speaker for relaxing at home, and I couldn't be happier!

Stylish with incredible sound
I bought this a couple of weeks ago and have zero regrets. Stylish, functions as advertised and it sounds incredible. Particularly like that it functions well with both Alexa and Google assistants.

Speaker transparency
I wish JBL was a little more transparent on which speakers could connect to each other. I was hoping to connect the JBL authentics 300 to a Boombox 2 but they cannot connect to one another. Great speakers though

Vintage Style Meets Modern Connectivity
I purchased the JBL Authentics 300 speaker as a part of the Music Lover Pro Bundle with the Spinner turntable. Reviewing it alone, I think it’s an impressive addition to the streaming/portable audio market. From a design standpoint, this is a really sweet looking piece of gear. The retro design is so slick I don’t need to stuff it in a cabinet. Quite the opposite, in fact – I’m proud to have this out for the masses. It has a vintage look, with the Quadrex foam grille paying homage to classic JBL speakers from the 1970s. Its interface is simplistic, but for me that’s fine since most of what I need to do I do from the efficient JBL One app. It weighs in at 10.8 pounds, but that’s more a testament to its robust construction than anything else. It fits perfectly on a shelf or tabletop without feeling intrusive, yet its presence is commanding enough to start up a conversation. A+ from my standpoint. I’ve been a fan of JBL’s high-quality sound since the mid-80s, and the Authentics 300 did not disappoint me on that front, with immersive, room-filling sound that is surprisingly balanced. The bass is deep and rich, the mids are clear and natural, and the treble is crisp without being harsh. I can crank it up without distortion, which makes it perfect for parties or filling larger spaces. The clarity and depth of sound are impressive regardless of the type of music you listen to. The Authentics 300 supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2 and Google Chromecast, making it easy to stream music from various platforms and devices. Connecting it to my Spinner BT turntable was a snap. Setting it up on my home wi-fi network was a straightforward process using the JBL One app. The integration with voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant is seamless. It also has an ethernet port, 3.5mm auxiliary jack, and USB port for playback (I read this is U.S. only). One of the nice things about the Authentics 300, as opposed to its smaller (200) and larger (500) siblings is the addition of portability – you don’t need to keep it plugged in in a single spot. Battery life is about 8 hours, which so far hasn’t been a problem for me. Overall, the JBL Authentics 300 speaker is a great choice if you’re looking for a high-quality, stylish audio solution. The combination of excellent sound performance, retro sleek design, and modern connectivity options makes it a standout product, in my opinion.
