Newpan is launching a new smart home speaker series from global company JBL named Authentics, which brings back the rich acoustic heritage and design of the brand.
The acoustic legacy and rich design of JBL return with the new Authentics smart speaker series. The three smart (WiFi) speakers in this new series bring the power of JBL Signature Sound and the latest technological innovations into the home.
As a pioneer in cinematic, studio, and live sound, JBL boasts an unparalleled acoustic legacy. For over 75 years, JBL has been amplifying the power of music to make listeners feel more connected and alive.
Among today's strongest audio trends is the consumer's desire for sound quality that provides a real sense of being in the middle of a live concert. In a recent HARMAN survey, respondents rated the importance of sound quality as 8.2 out of 10. When asked why this element was so important to them, 75% claimed it allows them to feel and evoke all the emotions that arise from the music, 75% said high-quality sound helps them concentrate or relax, and 74% said it allows them to hear the full range of instruments or melodies. Furthermore, 83% of respondents said they feel a deeper emotional effect with better sound quality.
Relying on JBL's long history of producing epic sound and its unmatched expertise in professional sound, JBL designed the Authentics series to be an acoustic powerhouse, incorporating professional-level technologies in all three speakers to deliver a stadium/concert sound experience into the living room.
The most promising and current sound trend is spatial and surround sound, providing a genuine feeling of being at the heart of the performance. JBL has significantly contributed to the rise of spatial and surround sound, developing exclusive technologies that offer 3D listening experiences far surpassing past stereo sound. With the JBL BAR series of soundbars, JBL leveraged its expertise to provide a truly thrilling 3D cinematic experience, thanks to its proprietary MultiBeam™ technology.
With JBL Authentics, specifically the JBL Authentics 500, JBL has leveraged its long-standing partnership with Dolby, incorporating the Dolby Atmos encoding standard to deliver immersive sound through a single speaker. This model also features HARMAN's patented Constant Sound Field technology, combining DSP (digital signal processing) and unique acoustic design to achieve broader sound distribution rather than a pinpointed listening area.
The Authentics speaker series features a unique retro design inspired by the 1970s, with remarkable details drawn from the distinctive history of that era. The popular JBL L-100 home speakers inspired the vintage-like design of the Authentics series, blending shapes, materials, colors, textures, and contemporary finishes created in line with modern lifestyle aesthetics. Iconic elements like the Quadrex grille pattern, which helped make the JBL L-100 speakers iconic, are included. The unique JBL PowerLine frame adds a touch of quality, and the control panel has a distinctive feel. The new Authentics series also embraces sustainability, with cabinets and handles made from recycled aluminum and many internal parts made from recycled plastic, reflecting JBL's commitment to environmental values, unlike other companies and brands in the field.
"The JBL Authentics series finds inspiration in JBL's rich past, reimagining some of its most iconic designs for a new generation of consumers seeking authentic and meaningful experiences. Three years in the making, JBL Authentics does what JBL does best - meeting listeners where they are with superior sound, innovative technologies, and attractive design," said Carsten Olesen, President of Consumer Audio at HARMAN.
