The JBL Authentics 200 is decent for music. Like other speakers in the Authentics lineup, it comes with a Self-Tuning feature to optimize its output automatically based on your room's unique acoustics. With it on, it reproduces voices and lead instruments in the mid-range with clarity and accuracy.

Hello, I’m reviewing the JBL Authentics 200. I was interested in a smaller speaker to connect to my other Wi-Fi speaker in my living room. After a little research I chose this one. Physically it’s perfect for what I need. The retro look, especially the grille, matches my other speaker very well.

I absolutely love the Authentics Series. JBL/Harmon hit it out of the park with this release! I love the 200. Sound profile is awesome.......highs, mids and bass all work well together. The JBL App helps with the fine tuning of sound. The 200 is Google Home and Alexa compatible.

Authentics 200 is the best wireless speaker I have ever used. It allows you to get the perfect balance of bass and treble, something that is unusual in wireless speakers. In addition to that you have the chance to equalize your music according to your own preference, through the JBL One app.

Precision engineering is the cornerstone of JBL’s work, enabling them to create products of unparalleled quality. Their meticulous attention to detail ensures that every aspect of their designs is flawless. They strive to achieve perfection in both form and function.

The JBL authentics 200 is a classy retro style speaker, that I enjoy very much. With the JBL one app, I have full control of sound adjustments and music streaming via wifi. It also has bluetooth connectivity with no lag or drops.

I've always liked JBL products. This one did not let me down. You can tell its a good quality product straight out of the box. The music is very crisp and clear. I love that you can adjust the bass and treble to get the sound just the way you want it.

1st impression right out the box, is excellent build quality, materials look really really nice the combination of colors is excellent, the kind of leather touch in the black areas absolutely nail it, the plastics on the bottom and on the back are great they make it feel sturdy and well build and...

I currently have a lot of Google home speakers throughout my house and including the Google Home Max. My max speaker had good sound, but this JBL blows it away. The sound quality of this as compared to my others is in a different category.

This is such a great speaker, both in sound and looks! With the leather-like exterior and gold finishes, this is finally a speaker that I can display and it looks cool with my decor. It's easy to use, and I particularly like the rewind and fast forward function built in to the volume control button.

This JBL speaker is easy to use and connect. Being app capable, makes for a highly customizable unit that can be tailored to ones preference. It is not battery operated but more so of a dedicated wire system.
