About the JBL Authentics 500 Wireless Home Speaker

The JBL Authentics 500 is a large, mains-powered home speaker with a retro wood-and-leather look, 270 W of amplification and Dolby Atmos. It runs Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant at the same time over Wi-Fi, and streams Bluetooth, AirPlay, Chromecast and Spotify Connect. Its 6.5-inch woofer and SlipStream bass port give it more low-end weight than the smaller Authentics 300 and 200, which trade bass and output for easier placement.

    Questions and answers

    Is the JBL Authentics 500 worth it?
    If you want one box that fills a large room and handles both music and Atmos movies, it is a strong pick. For a small room or a tight budget, a smaller speaker or a soundbar makes more sense.
    How does it compare with the Authentics 300 and 200?
    The 500 is the largest and most powerful of the three, with a 6.5-inch woofer and Dolby Atmos. The 300 and 200 are smaller and easier to place but give up bass and output.
    Does it have a battery?
    No. It plugs into the wall. The handle is for repositioning it around the house, not for carrying it outdoors.
    Which streaming services and formats does it support?
    Wi-Fi streaming with AirPlay, Chromecast and Spotify Connect, plus Bluetooth, USB and Ethernet. Dolby Atmos is supported for spatial audio and movies.
    Can Alexa and Google Assistant run at the same time?
    Yes. Both assistants are built in and can be active together, so either wake word works.
    What connections does it have?
    Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet over RJ45, USB-C and a 1/8-inch headphone jack. There is no NFC and no memory card reader.
    How big is it and where can it go?
    It is about 17.6 in wide, 10.4 in deep and 9.4 in tall, so it needs a sturdy sideboard or shelf. It is not suited to height-channel duty in a surround setup.
    How many devices can connect to it?
    It is listed for up to 7 devices, so a household can pair several phones and tablets and switch between them.
