"Just when we were starting to wonder how JBL could improve things with yet another generation of Xtreme, it goes and beats what came before.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ – 5 Star review.
The most Xtreme speaker yet
Building on an award-winner, the JBL Xtreme 5 takes a winning formula and makes it even better. The already tough build is now more resilient, meeting IP68 standards. The speaker array has been revised, improving bass depth and power. With Super EQ and lossless audio playback, sonic precision has been improved too. Ambient lighting highlights the robust aesthetics, while the battery life and charging potential remain as impressive as ever, making this the perfect travel speaker.
Go deeper into the sound
Featuring a revised speaker array, with a powerful 90 watt woofer, the Xtreme 5 goes lower and louder. With a total 130 watts in mains powered mode and 90 watts when powered by the battery, there’s ample volume to get your party started.
Smarter sound
Using AI to analyse what you’re listening to, Smart EQ Mode automatically sets the equalisation settings in real time. This means that podcasts and drama are crystal-clear, while party music packs a punch.
Listen in lossless
For the best in music detail and lifelike realism, connect via the USB-C port and enjoy lossless audio. Ideal for streaming lossless music files from your laptop or other device, the USB-C port takes playback quality up a level.
Auracast means that the Xtreme 5 is just the beginning
Fitted with Auracast, it’s easy to wirelessly link two Xtreme 5 speakers together and enjoy even more immersive sound. Ideal for larger spaces, paring two speakers significantly boosts the sound quality. If you want to cover even more space, you can wirelessly connect multiple Auracast-enabled JBL speakers for seamless multiroom sound.
Light up the party
Now fitted with ambient lighting, the Xtreme 5 provides the visual excitement to match the sound. Featuring colour themes that match the music, it shifts with every beat or mood. Choose a soft glow for calming music, or vibrant pulsating for upbeat tunes. The lighting also provides a visual status for power, Bluetooth pairing, battery level and Auracast connection, keeping you fully in touch.
JBL Portable app
Take full control of your speakers’ settings with the JBL Portable app. Available for Apple iOS and Android, the app lets you tailor the sound with EQ settings, receive updates and unlock features – all straight from your smartphone.
Listen for longer and charge your smartphone
AI tech doesn’t just improve the sound quality, it helps improve battery life. With up to 24 hours of playback time, you’ll be able to party through the night and into the next day, before needing to recharge. With Playtime Boost you get an extra four hours play, taking the total to 28 hours. A USB output means that you can also charge up your smartphone on the move.
Built for Xtremes
Improved construction makes the Xtreme 5 tougher than ever. Now rated at IP68, the speaker is tough enough to handle being dropped in water or having sand kicked in its face on the beach! This durability makes it the perfect speaker for everything from an outdoor adventure to a hard-working workshop space.
Strap up for the journey
Supplied with retaining hooks and strap, the Xtreme 5 is perfectly portable and ideal for carrying on camping trips, hikes and festivals. A handy built-in bottle opener helps keep you refreshed once you’ve arrived.
Get involved, with optional EasySing Mics
Available at additional cost, JBL’s EasySing Mics kit lets you use the Xtreme 5 as a Karaoke speaker. The mics connect seamless via USB and feature real-time voice removal for easy Karaoke with your favourite songs. Powerful AI also enhances your vocals with auto tune, adding high-pitch support, natural reverb and feedback suppression.
Listen out loud, wherever you venture, with the JBL Xtreme 5.
