The Xtreme 2 is waterproof as defined by its IPX7 rating. You can also wirelessly connect two Xtreme 2s in a stereo pair. The transmitter power can reach up to 12.5dBm (0.02W) in a frequency range from 2.402- to 2.480GHz using GFSK, π/4 DQPSK, and 8DPSK modulation.

In addition, the unit offers a feature called Connect+, which lets it broadcast a Bluetooth signal to as many as 100 other Connect+ devices to spread the music around a much larger area. I suppose this could cause some confusion if two people want to play something at the same time. When one is playing and you start playing from the other one, the speaker switches automatically. Interestingly, two devices can be paired to the speaker at the same time. It supports Bluetooth 4.2 using several profiles, including A2DP 1.3, AVRCP 1.6, HFP 1.6, and HSP 1.2. The ends of the Xtreme 2 hold 3.5″ passive radiators, which give the bass a boost.īluetooth is the primary way to feed music to the Xtreme 2. The frequency response is specified to extend from 55Hz to 20kHz, with a signal-to-noise ratio of more than 80dB. That amp power is reduced somewhat when the unit is being powered by the battery, but JBL won’t disclose the amp power in that case.

The four active drivers are powered by an internal amp that delivers 10 watts to each driver (40W total) when the Xtreme 2 is connected to an AC power outlet. Two 2.75-inch woofers and two 0.8-inch tweeters face forward, and two 3.5-inch passive bass radiators face outward from the ends of the enclosure. The Xtreme 2 is available in black, dark blue, or forest green. It comes with a woven nylon strap (with an inline bottle opener, no less!) that lets you sling it over your shoulder. It tips the scale at a hefty 5.3 pounds, thanks to its sturdy metal construction and tough fabric covering.
The extra height is due to the feet that prevent it from rolling around on a flat surface. The JBL Xtreme 2 is a nearly cylindrical unit measuring 11.3 x 5.4 x 5.2 inches (width x height x diameter). Let’s find out if it can get the party started during your next outing. So, it’s no surprise that portable, battery-powered, Bluetooth speakers are proliferating like crazy.
People are on the go more than ever, and they want to take their music with them.
