Product Q&A

I JUST BOUGHT 4 OF THESE. WILL I BE ABLE TO PAIR ALL 4 ?

Do any JBL have the ability to play FM? Does any product have “radio” option? So that we don’t have to use a device to play music off of?

Asked by: hairgirl81
Our JBL PartyBox Encore Essential does not have a built-in FM Radio but you may stream your favorite radio stations via Bluetooth through your source device.

Is the encore essential louder than the on-the-go?

Asked by: Pete456
Thanks for your inquiry. While our JBL Partybox Encore Essential and JBL PartyBox On-The-Go are both amazing speakers, the JBL Partybox Encore Essential has a more well-balanced sound profile when its Bass Boost option is set to "Deep." Additionally, you may access additional party elements including sound effects and light show capabilities through the JBL PartyBox app, which is compatible with it. You can customize its sound profile with the help of a visual EQ. Its battery life is also longer, at over 8 hours. The On-The-Go has an additional guitar input and includes a microphone out of the box. If you need more help, please contact our customer support.

Will the JBL encore essential pair up with my JBL xtreme 2 ?
