JBL wants you to bring its wireless speakers indoors, with three new wi-fi enabled home options that'll have you overlooking its portable Bluetooth set

JBL has just unveiled its new Cove line of home speakers 3 models which vary in shape and size (but note the Denon resemblance) Designed for home use, and to work with various JBL technologies When you think of JBL speakers, your mind probably goes to the likes of the JBL Go 5 or JBL Xtreme 5 : portable party devices which you take on the go.

However, the brand's new offerings are totally different.

JBL has unveiled its Cove range, consisting of three speakers that are designed to stay at home.

That's not to say they're not portable, but you're not meant to take them camping or to the beach.

The family is made up of the smaller Cove M1, larger (but portable) Cove P1, and even larger (and not quite portable) X1.

All three models are set to sell from October 2026.

All three models have a range of useful features: they can self-tune depending on the room they're in, automatically apply balances to avoid distortion, and pair together to create multi-room noise.

They don't just pair with each other: they can also connect with the JBL Bar Mk2 to add real surround sound to your movies and TV.

These are all Wi-Fi enabled speakers, though they can connect via Bluetooth.

This means they support Google Cast, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, Roon Ready, Tidal Connect and Qobuz Connect, and they'll apparently also support Alexa+ at some point after launch.

Their design makes us think about two things.

Firstly, they'll be able to fight for a spot in our best wireless speakers guide , and second, their resemblance to the Denon 200, 400 and 600 range is hard to overlook — and given our glowing review of the Denon Home 400 , JBL's Cove X1 (main image) is up against some stiff competition.

That's not to say the new range can't wow us, just that it's tough at the top.
