JBL LINK Series: Immersive JBL Sound Now Available with the Google Assistant

by · Published · Updated

HARMAN International unveiled the JBL LINK series, the first voice-activated speakers to bring together JBL’s Signature Sound with the Google Assistant. Available in three models, the LINK 10, LINK 20, and LINK 300 give consumers rich, full-range sound and instant access to their favorite music through voice control.

JBL LINK is a hands free voice-activated speaker series with the Google Assistant built-in. Users can stream music, ask questions, manage everyday tasks, and easily control smart devices around the home — simply by using voice commands. By saying “Ok, Google,” the device can help perform tasks like playing a favorite song, finding delicious recipes for dinner parties, or even checking traffic before leaving the house.

Merging JBL’s signature sound and Google’s voice assistant technology, JBL LINK speakers bring together a powerful listening experience and a conversational voice assistant. The LINK speakers feature high-definition music streaming with Chromecast built-in, providing an elevated music experience, best-in class sound quality and endless entertainment from the most popular music and entertainment apps, all through a simple voice command.

LINK 10 and LINK 20 speakers are designed to be highly portable with 5 and 10 hours of battery life respectively, and the IPX7 waterproof design gives LINK even more versatility for enjoyment outdoors. LINK 300 delivers more powerful sound. Multiple speakers can be easily linked together for a big, bold multi-room listening experience—within reach of any home Wi-Fi network.

The JBL LINK series with the Google Assistant will be available at select retailers starting fall 2017.
