I was one of the first to hear JBL’s new Wi-Fi speaker sound system — and if I were Sonos, I’d be quaking in my boots
I got to try out the as-yet-unreleased JBL Cove M1, P1, and X1 before almost anyone else, and I'm seriously excited.
A tech journalist tested JBL's new Wi-Fi speaker system called the Cove line, which includes the M1, P1, and X1 models. The journalist found that connecting to Wi-Fi took only 40 seconds and there were no connectivity issues during testing. The speakers sounded fantastic, with the X1 model being the most exciting and vivacious. The M1 model held its own, and the P1 was rambunctious and had a 14-hour battery life.
The Cove line also has problem-solving features such as controlling the speakers without an app, a "follow me" feature, and a "break-in" feature. The journalist was impressed with the speakers and expressed hope that JBL would cause competitors like Sonos to worry.
