From Jbl comes Cove, a new range of complete and versatile Wi-Fi speakers, designed to bring our favorite music throughout the home. Unlike traditional Bluetooth speakers, Cove uses your home Wi-Fi network rather than connecting directly to a single device. This allows you to listen to music stably and continuously throughout the house, even when the smartphone used as a source moves to another room or receives a call. Wi‑Fi’s increased bandwidth also allows you to play lossless audio and stream content directly from services like Spotify and Tidal, completely eliminating your phone from the chain.
Based on the proprietary Jbl platform and easily manageable from the Jbl One app, the new range includes three Wi-Fi speakers, each designed to adapt to different listening needs:
- Cove M1: compact and versatile, with 3 tweeters + 1 woofer
- Cove P1: portable, battery-powered, with up to 14 hours of battery life, Dolby Atmos and 4 tweeters, of which 1 up-firing + 1 woofer; resistant to dirt and water (IP56 certification).
- Cove X1: the top model of the range, with Dolby Atmos, 4 tweeters, of which 1 up-firing + 2 woofers.
Each speaker can be used alone, in a stereo configuration, or as part of a multi-room audio system. Proprietary Constant Sound Field, automatic ambient calibration and AI Sound Boost technologies work together to automatically optimize audio performance based on speaker placement and listening modes.
Cove speakers integrate seamlessly with Jbl Bar Series Mk2 soundbars, expanding the listening experience from music to home theater. Through the Jbl One app, Cove speakers can be added to the soundbar and configured as rear channels, creating a Dolby Atmos system.
Finally, thanks to JBL’s Music Follows Me function, music and TV audio can literally follow the user from room to room.
Wide connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect and integrated voice control with Alexa+ support.
