Great build and sound
Excellent built quality, easy to setup and it sounds great. An improvement would be if JBL could merge the JBL one and JBL portable Apps.

I am very impressed with this speaker
I purchased my JBL authentic 200 smart speaker nearly 4 months ago. I am very happy with my purchase sound quality is great. I’m happy that there is both Google Assistant and Alexa built into the speaker. This is the only speaker that I’m aware of that has both options built into it. The build quality is excellent. I also like the fact that there is an ethernet port on the back of the speaker, I always prefer this option over using Wi-Fi. This is also a very attractive speaker. JBL really put a lot of time and effort into designing this speaker. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a Bluetooth speaker with a lot of The speaker is well worth the money in my opinion. I have owned many different Bluetooth speakers over the years with the Google Assistant built into them. This speaker is by far the most superior speaker I’ve owned.

I absolutely love this speaker!
It’s incredible at producing loud, high-quality sound, but the highs are a bit muddy, and its aesthetics are top-notch. However, there are a few areas for improvement. Firstly, the lack of expandability is a bit disappointing. For instance, there’s no pre-out, so you can’t connect additional speakers. While this might not matter to most people, having that option would be a nice touch. Secondly, I wish there were a manual standby mode button on the speaker itself. It would be much more convenient to press a button to put the speaker into standby mode and disconnect it from Bluetooth, rather than relying solely on the connected device. Lastly, while this doesn’t impact the speaker’s performance, I think the volume, bass, and treble knobs could use a slight design improvement. It would look more polished and premium if the lights on the knobs moved smoothly rather than in visible steps when adjusting them. Despite these minor issues, this is an outstanding speaker that delivers amazing sound and style. Highly recommended for the average person who doesn't want to expand it at all!

Amazing stylish speaker
We have this for a while now and we loved. The sound is amazing, speaker seats on 8 small rubbers 2 each corner, they are helping to cancel vibration so compare to other speaker you don’t need to look space with nothing close to it if you want to use it with high volume bass. Retro design is probably not for everyone but for our place is fantastic we like antics and with this you have mix of technology fitted in to retro box. Of course is smart speaker so you can use Alexa, google and all you actually needs from speaker. Great job JBL

Awesome bass!
This is the best Bluetooth speaker I have ever had. For comparison, it sounds better than my Sonos which is a high-quality unit. The bass is awesome, and it extends pretty far from the unit itself. I can't say enough good about this unit. Easy on the eyes as well!

Only voice matches one person
I bought this product a month ago and have returned it as it will not voice match to more than one person in google assistant - so if it's set up under my partners account and I asked what the weather was doing tomorrow it would say voice match not set up (but a second voice match could not be set up). We tried resetting a number of numbers with the same outcome. Would have been very happy with the product if it could voice match to more than one person, however, since it doesn't we will be buying a different product.

A piece of art, with the sound of a pro setup.
I’ve had the pleasure of using the Authentics 200 for a few weeks now, and I didn’t know you could get this quality of sound on a budget. JBL have hit the nail on the head with this masterpiece, the looks are just perfect, and the sound is even better. This speaker is so easy to use, with one touch Bluetooth connection, set up was incredibly quick and the JBL app is another bonus. I use my speaker connected with Alexa, and it works perfectly, however the microphone i would perhaps like to be a little more sensitive, The bass and treble buttons are a touch of class, making setting EQ super easy, and can be adgusted remotely via the JBL app too! I didn’t realise what I have been missing In my music until now. A must have for anyone even slightly in to their sounds.

Rocking the Retro: My Plants Now Have Dance Moves
So, I’ve been jamming out with the JBL Authentics 200, and let me tell you, this speaker is like the life of the party—except it doesn’t spill drinks or hog the playlist. The sound? Oh, it’s crisp, clear, and the bass hits so hard that my plants are swaying along to the beat. It handles everything from pop to rock without breaking a sweat, and even when I crank up the volume, there’s no distortion—just pure, glorious sound. Setting it up was a breeze too. Bluetooth connects faster than I can find my phone most days, and it’s super handy to switch between devices when the whole family is fighting over who gets to DJ. The design is retro-cool, like something straight out of your dad’s man cave but with a modern twist that fits right in with my living room vibe. All in all, the JBL Authentics 200 is like that friend who’s always ready to rock, but doesn’t steal the spotlight—unless, of course, you want it to.

The price is justified
Let's start with the price. Yes it seems a bit steep for a speaker but this is not only a speaker but a fantastic addition to any home. The modern sleek design compliments anywhere you place it. The ability to add or remove bass and treble ensures you have an enjoyable experience. Setting up the product was a little confusing for me at first but once done it was actually easy (I struggle with some technology) I connected my Alexa and the sound was so crisp and clear. The speaker was bigger then I expected but has been a very welcome addition to our house. I highly recommend this product and would advise anyone to get one. All I can say is you get what you pay for in such a incredible way!

Retro style Streaming via wifi and Bluetooth
I been using the JBL Authentics 200 for a 2 weeks now I love the retro look of it based on the ye 70’s I love the black quilted boxes looks so old but sounds so modern. With a 5in woofer and a 6in passive radiator deep base that can be adjusted with the dials or using the JBL app volume goes to a very high level which is great for party’s, I love that it has both Alexa and Google simultaneously & Chrome-cast built in and can connect it to my phone via Bluetooth to connect it to my Amazon music and Spotify. The only slight negatives is would have liked it to have a handle for easier movement and if would have liked to have the option of wireless so could take it out and about.

Love this speaker!
The JBL Authentics 200 speaker is immense. For the size of the speaker you wouldn’t think the volume or quality was coming from it. I’ve not managed to have it above half volume as I’d rattle the house. I did a lot of research in which speaker to add to my house. And I am not disappointed in the slightest. I am really happy with my decision. I have a smart home and this speaker integrated into the system very easily. I can now use voice assistant to tell my speaker to start playing music. I love it that much I will be getting the JBL 600 for the downstairs of my house for when guests are round and BBQ season! I especially love that when I do this both speakers will be linked together and I can play throughout the house. In conclusion I would buy this speaker again in a heartbeat. And I do plan to purchase more

Unrivalled sound, and absolutely stunning.
I had this for a week and I’m so impressed. My family and I love music, we prefer to listen to music rather than putting the tv on. I’d already seen good reviews, but I couldn’t have imagined how powerful the speak is. I’ve heard sounds in songs that I’ve never heard before. The sound is extremely crisp and if you prefer higher treble and lower bass you just adjust that easily with the dials. We prefer higher bass and it’s so smooth. Silky in fact. The sub is easily visible on the bottom and the kids like to see it when it’s working! Although it’s a plug in, it’s easily movable to different rooms, and it’s looks stunning. Connectivity is easy, and the JBL app is great and easy to navigate. All in all, probably better than any speaker you’ll have had before.

Great speaker, even better as an Alexa
Here’s the text with the spelling corrected: --- This is a great home speaker. Firstly, the sound quality is good for its size, with decent bass and definitely good enough for any pop/rock song you may listen to. Don't expect super bass like you get with the PartyBox; however, its bass is great for its size, so if you put it in your room or kitchen, it will serve you perfectly. The Alexa function is actually so useful. It has replaced my Echo Show 8 and performs every Alexa function perfectly fine. You can AirPlay too, meaning you can stream music directly from the speaker and not via Bluetooth from your phone. Once again, the app is easy to use and the EQ is easily adjustable. Overall, if you want a budget home Hi-Fi speaker with great Alexa functionality, this is definitely for you.
