JBL has released two new speakers – Link Portable and Link Music – which not only offer great audio but also Google Assistant to meet all of your audio, search and a smart home needs.
Released just in time for the Christmas rush, Link Portable and Link Music are ideal to listen to music, audiobooks and podcasts.
Link Portable, as its name suggests, allows users to take their music anywhere thanks to its on-board rechargeable battery that will run for up to 8 hours.
It comes with a charging stand so it will always be powered up and ready to go whether you want to take it onto the balcony or outside.
It also has an IPX7 waterproof housing so it can handle a splash of water in the bathroom, at the beach or by the pool.
Link Music features the 360-degree JBL Sound so you can enjoy clear audio from anywhere in the room thanks to a full-range transducer.
The speaker was tuned with an advanced algorithm and the on-board digital and delivers
full bandwidth audio for clear trebles, sharp needs and impressive bass.
Also onboard Link Music is AirPlay 2 and Chromecast seeking stream music, audiobooks and podcasts to other compatible devices including some smart TVs.
“Listening to our customers is just as important to us as listening to our audio products,” says Marcus Fry, brand activation director of AUNZ at HARMAN.
“Our customers have told us how important easy music streaming is to them. We get this.
“That’s why we’ve designed these speakers with the option of Wi-Fi streaming for more seamless connectivity.
“There’s no danger of being disturbed by calls or worrying if your phone runs out of juice. 360 JBL Sound is a key feature in both speakers whether you prefer static or portable.
“We’ve priced the JBL Link Portable and Link Music very competitively while providing all the favourite features people want.
“With the Google Assistant on board – music or podcasts are only a command away.”
The new JBL Link Music and Link Portable are available now and are priced at $169 and $229 respectively.
