JBL hasn’t been shy in using its classic L100 speakers from the 1970s as design inspiration for new models, and its latest range of wireless speakers does just that. Say hello to the JBL Authentics line.

The three-strong line-up (Authentics 500, Authentics 300 and Authentics 200) includes wi-fi and Bluetooth across the board and a range of streaming features including AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music, Spotify Connect and Chromecast built-in. All can be accessed through the JBL One app which can be used to to control the speakers and access customisable EQ settings if you want to tweak the sound.
