JBL, a brand traditionally celebrated for its rugged portable Bluetooth devices and booming party speakers, is officially making a play for the whole-home audio market. The company has unveiled its new Cove series, a lineup of connected speakers designed to rival industry stalwarts like Sonos.
The newly announced JBL Cove ecosystem features three distinct models: the Cove M1, Cove X1, and Cove P1. Designed for versatility, each model can function as a standalone speaker, pair up with another for dedicated stereo sound, or seamlessly link across multiple rooms to create a synchronized, whole-home audio experience.
With this launch, JBL is signaling a strategic shift toward premium, connected home audio, offering consumers a fresh, flexible alternative for building their ultimate wireless sound systems.
