Three 2.5mm tweeters and three 2.75” midrange woofers provide so much clarity that every detail of your favorite song sounds brand new, while a 6.5” down firing subwoofer and the patented SlipStream™ bass port extend the low end to a new level of bass that you can feel. Dolby Atmos® Music content is available from compatible streaming services in the JBL One app.
