Is this an AirPlay speaker?
I bought the 200 because of your recommendation in the Video. Thank you for that. The original plan was to buy the 300 but I don’t need the mobility and the Sound of the 200 is fantastic for the price. I‘m just happy.
Absolutely loved the video and it helped me a ton.
Just had to subscribe for the excellent work. 👍
To my ears both JBL speakers sounded the best. This is listening on my klipsh denon home theater. Great video and keep up the great work 🍻
I can’t wait for you to review the 500
Great review!
Thank you. Very much appreciated your review.
The A200 actually does have a woofer in the front the thing on the bottom is a passive radiator to have more open sealed sound in a way
The 200 and 300 don't have air ports because a passive radiator acts as the port. Passive radiators need to be used in a sealed enclosure. Passive radiators and ports achieve the same thing, they increase the output at its tuned frequency.
HEY Danny good review.....what speaker would you recommend JBL Authentics 200 or 300 or Marshall Stanmore 3....curious on your thoughts....cheers from Vulcan Canada
you helped me :D gonna order jbl 200
Great review, Danny! Just wanted to ask, would you get this or the Sonos Era 100?
thank you for this review!
does this (or the Authentics 300) have any noticable latency when plugged in via the aux/audio-in port?
I.e. could you plug a physically plug a guitar, or DJ setup into it and perform, without DSP latency ?
Hi, enjoyed your video! Between the JBL 200 and the Marshall Kilburn 2, which one do you think is better? Looking for some insights before making a decision. Thanks!
I bought the JBL Authentic 300 today.
The AirPlay set up and linking to Tidal was seamless and took a few minutes as did the firmware update.
I nearly bought the Beloit 20, but after having bad luck with B&O in the past (headphones stopped working and then returned still not working and an A5 not charging) I opted for the JBL.
After a few hours listening this evening I am very happy with it.
The ability to use AirPlay and connect them as a stereo pair make them a fairly decent set up without breaking the bank.
I bought the authenic 200 yesterday and I was hoping you could help me. Does your volume knob spin freely and smoothly a full 360 degrees? My knob has parts that are stiff and harder to turn then it's suddenly smooth and little to no resistance, then it stiffens again. I don't know if this is a defect and I should return it or its meant to be some kind of feature?
Thank you
@@emalior5000 the volume control knob spins freely, but I normally control the volume within the JBL One app.
I will have a check when I get home later today and check again.
@@TrevorDodd-ev1sx thanks for your reply. On closer inspection of the volume knob I noticed the outer ring is catching on the centre play button and plastic shavings are coming off. Either the play button is not centred perfectly or it's out of round. It does seem to be getting better as more of the plastic wears off. When I first used it it was jamming. At least I know it's not anything serious and won't bother exchanging it. Thanks again 👍
Hi, when you have two, it play like real stereo ? I belivied that it play exactly the same thing and not do a real left / right.
@@letraderencarton One of the major benefits of this speaker is that the app allows you to create a stereo pair. They play in real stereo.
I did notice the Marshall clarity is crispier compared to clear JBL sound. How was the bass on the JBL, was it such a big difference from the rest ?
Personally, I like both brands. Marshall at home and JBL for the portable. Good review.
Same dude
Great review as always, would you say there is a noticeable bass increase on the 300 ?
Thanks, cool review
Hey Danny, I was wondering if you were aware of the Soundcore motion 300, since it is in direct comparison with the Bose soundlink flex
Jbl 200 vs marshall action 3 which is better?
Any chance of you checking out the Harman Kardon Go Plus Play 3?
Hello Danny
I am very serious about sound. Which one is better in terms of pure sound Marshall Kilburn or jbl 200? Pls give me your valuable suggestion
Between this and marshall acton iii which one would you choose?
Nice review JBL should have given a choice of fabric orange and blue like their classic home speakers.
I know! I can't imagine they didn't consider that here... maybe something to roll out later if people get tired of the look.
@@DannyPops I just watched Alan Ross review only the 300 has a battery can’t compete with the JBL Encore or Tribit Blast in loudness. These Wi-Fi speakers seem to be lacking I still love the Soundcore motion boom plus it is outstanding still my favorite they have a new line coming out this company is moving forward did you see the Bose Flex comes in cypress green I home they are on sale AMAZON PRIME DAY THE 10/11
Thanks for this!!! These looks decent
Hi Danny, nice work. Do you know if two A200 coupled play a real stereo (meaning right and left), or do they play exactly the same ?
Cool, i want to see a 500 vs sonos 5 comparison.
The tribut stormbox blast is 90 Watts. Is it louder than that?
Hello I currently have a 200 and never connected it to wifi I just connected it to wifi and it got a firmware update and I feel like it has less bass Is there anyway you can confirm this?
For $349 I think I will buy Klipsch The One for home & Bose Soundlink Flex for the road / Emberton II. All because of your videos
It’s currently at $249
That is a passive radiator on the bottom, the actual driver is 5" round.
Just as FYI... It's a passive radiador in the bottom, not the woofer, that's at the front between the tweeters... I like Your reviews a lot, regards pal
thanks cesarga!
The klipsch sounded the best in this sound test. I’m just wondering if you can pair any of these to get stereo?
I don't think you can through any apps, you could with 3.5mm but that'd be all manual set up.
Hi Danny, The button of the Jbl Authentics is a passive radiator. The real subwoofer is in front of the speaker.
The bottom?
Actually, that is just a woffer in the front with 2 tweeters and a bottom firing passive radiator
The authentics 500 has a powered 6.5 subwoofer.
The 200 and 300 seem to have almost identical specifications same size tweeters, 5 vs 5.25 woofer, same size passive radiator and 90w vs 100w max power.
It's not surprising he says they both sound very similar. The 300 probably plays down low better due to the larger enclosure and it has a battery but otherwise it seems like the 200 or the 500 is the one to buy unless you need to use the battery
You should get a hk citation 200. They are on sale for$130. The battery sux but sounds great.
Soundcore x600 vs harman kardon onyx 7. Which is better ?
Can you pls review the Soundcore Motion 300 nd compare it to the jbl flip 6 & bose soundlink flex ?
Please sir review the jbl Authentic 500 speakers
Thought the 200 sounded better than the Action III
How is the Alexa functionality in the 200?
To my 76 year old ears with some high end loss, the 200 wins the sound comparison hands down. The Klipsch wasn’t even close. Your assessment is very subjective on features. I’ll keep using my Bose Mini, thank you.
300 sounded the best. Well balanced, bigger sound.
Can you make a review test between jbl authentocs an marshall acton iii?
That's what he has done in this video.
Are you planning on reviewing the JBL authentics 500 soon as well?
ruclips.net/video/PnYoUaPPouc/видео.htmlsi=sIxBz5L_MXNJ-Nqt
@@DannyPops yeah sorry danny. I realized that after posting my comment and finally came across the 500 video. Lol so my next question would be that I was planning in getting a vinyl player with WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity. Sound wise does this still work well with those type of products?
How much better does t sound vs jbl charge 5
Curious if the 200 sounds better than the charge 5?
Random question.
How do we turn off the 200? Does it just turn off automatically when not being played or is there an actual button?
Auto when you disconnect BT or stop playing over WIFI
This one or acton 3?
Where KLIPSCH THE THREE PLUS ?
What I heard in my headphones. The 300 had the most bass of the 4, it was almost too prominent. The Marshall had the least bass, but the most mid range. The Klipsch was really balanced however did not have the punchy bass of the 200. For jazz and classical styles, I would choose the Klipsch. For more pop styles, The 200. Hop hop, dance and the like, the 300.
Hi, what do You think which option is better. JBL authentics 200 or two JBL charge 5 connected in stereo mode?
The 200 is great and no batteries to worry about. Great sound! Expensive but cheaper the battery powered 300.
I favored the 300 followed close by the Klipsch.
Seguiré con Marshall ❤️
Para vos tiene suficientes bajo en vivo?
Why no 40hz db values for the other two so we could compare ?? Strange...
Could you compare between Killburn 2 and Authentic 200.... Since both being portable with battery output.
even though I don’t have a review on this. The Authentic 200 is a bit bigger and can get a lot louder than the kilburn 2.
@@DannyPops what can we say on sound quality overall between these two mate?
200 300 500 the price tho if you buy the lowest for 300ish from what the otber is 400 idk man is 200 good enough? Like you wanna bring it somewhere the 300 aeems way too much work
compare with Sonos Era 100!!
NICE
...so two jbl partybox 100's are the same wattage as one 500.....
It looks like these two JBLs are good for pop music but if compare them for rock I think Marshall would beat them.
the weird foam cubes werent weird in 1975 ...
Take my money
This woofer is not a woofer but a passive raddiator
7:13 that is true😊
I will never understand why JBL bluetooth speakers are so popular let alone how anybody can think they sound good. I picked up this and a pair of extremes after reading all the positive reviews hoping that they might live up to em. Boxed them back up in under an hour and returned them. Not horrible at apartment @ 2am volumes standing directly in front of them increasing the volume or move slightly to the left or right and it falls somewhere between listening to a good speaker sitting inside a aluminum pale while wearing ear plugs to distorted noise depending on location and volume.
Just got mine 200 but figure it out too late its not wireless you have plug the in all time
you gotta get the 300 for that!
I heard the authentic 200 last month it was way better than the marshall the bass was fantastic 🤩 with trance music and melodic trance 💯❤️💙
The bass of Marshall are suficient?
You didn’t even mention the price
Shimmered lover!!!
90 watts? Thank you. Amazon says it is 200 Watts, which I knew that couldn’t be right
@kurstone8511 the watts game seems to be not based on actual reality.
are you able to control the volume with your voice?
@@escu8628 thanks, that was the only thing holding me back
Yes. You can say "alexa turn down the volume to 50 percent" etc and it works perfectly, "alexa volume to 75%" etc. However if the music is very loud and you are far away it's hard for it to hear you, obviously.
Terrible music choices, but nice review otherwise. In a field with Marshall's Acton or Stanmore, or Klipsch, etc, it's good to see JBL release some good stuff.
Marshall Acton III wins again...😊
Destroyed by A500💀
Not even close
the 200 sounds good to me but the price is really holding me back
EVERYONE HERE KEEP BASHING JBL BECAUSE CLEARLY HATES JBL, BUT THEY SCARED PHASING A500 IT DESTROYED EVERYTHING!!!
Measuring in a single tone instead of a white noise is pretty stupid and deceiving. Nobody listens to a song that contains only 1 tonal sine wave, but white noise contains all the tones from 20 - 20 000 Hz range. Even if the speaker would be 10 db louder in averaged overall response it could be quieter by 10 db in one tone compared to the quieter overall speaker.
I gotta give you a credit for not beeing a sells person for JBL and not overselling it tho.
JBL 1
Uh Denon 150 is better wifi and 24 bit 192khz and less 👌
My heart says Marshall but it has no wifi and my existing home speakers all run on wifi.
That's why you get a tiny Wiim Mini.
Get the Denon 150
Denon 150
the 200 and 300 have exactelly the same speakers, only the battery in the 300 thats differnt
No way it’s to small to not have a battery in it 🔋
You look like Mathew Perry
@@Rafaeorafa this could be bad
I think he was funny and charismatic!
The 300 makes the other two sound bad.
not much sound on the JBL
Home setup? Nobody beats that marshall look. JBL’s too forced to look classic.. still marshall for me.
Hey danny can u ship that van here in the phillipines? 😂
Is the crappy thing?? Marshall is not even company. It looks horrible stupid and silly design.
And becareful in your words. Pretty stupid that you didn't recognize A500. Destroys any marshall speakers.(A MARSHALLOW KILLER) what if marshall phases A500 i wonder if you can talks alot💀
@@HAIYANE9910 huh? What's an A500.. Buchardt? Those are proper stereo speakers. Of course they'll "destroy" a Marshall single speaker.
@@morespinach9832 Authentics 500
You look so funny 😆
JBL authentics 300 sounds better
When it has the same speakers but a battery?😂
Duh
No thanks.
Not deep bass at all.
😂😂😂😂😂
jbl design need some work,
Pls dont dance...
Oh hush...let him have fun
Without me
The klipsch is absolute 💩
a horrible cheap copy of marshall
Marshall speakers are made by a third party Chinese audio company, these are in another league lol.
What are you talking about. They look nothing like the marshall speaker
@@raulespinoza8668 I think it is zound industries which is from Sweden now known as marshall group
YOUR MARSHALL IS NOT COMPANY!! YOU FOOLED IT'S NOT A CHEAP YOUR ONLY HAVE CHEAPEST MINDSET!!! STOP SAYING CHEAPOR ELSE I WILL MAKE YOURSELF CHEAPER THAN MEAT!!!
@@frozengamer3030just another angry Marshall meatrider that’s all
