hello today I wanted to demonstrate the JBL connect feature according to the quick guides and also website of JBL JBL connect should allow the connection of multiple speakers well in reality multiple means - there was a first video leaked of the JBL flip 3 which showed three speakers connected together but an updated version of this video showed only two speakers so if you connect or if you try to connect three speakers it won't work only two will connect I'm not sure if they pulled this feature because it caused problems or I don't know but it would be great to be able to connect even four or five speakers this way I think login Logitech is supporting this and maybe some others too so you can really wirelessly daisy chain them right now this is not possible you can only connect two speakers that have this feature for example you can connect one flip with one JBL extreme so far no other JBL speaker has this feature except these two but first let's try connecting two JBL flip three together um this is pretty simple you have to of course turn both on and here you see the JBL connect button so press the button on both they will jump into some own pairing mode you hear them well some kind of sauna tone and now they are connected and can play you don't need this app there is an own app it's called JBL connect but with this with this app you can switch between stereo mode or party mode I'm not sure if you see it it's quite a bit hard to judge with the head cam you can see both the yellow flip and the flip three I can rename it which I already did mine is called yellow flip in order to be able to differentiate I don't know okay and you can switch between party mode this is both speakers are playing the same or stereo so one speaker is playing the left the other one the right channel you can also swept them and this is all the functionality you have with the app not nothing else and the next time now we are in stereo the next time you will connect them they will stay in stereo so no need to start the app again you can try playing some music and listen how this sounds I'm having binaural microphones so you already here we have some stereo sound stage I will turn off the right speaker again and you will hear well this is mono they'll come back them again and now both are playing in stir again let's put them further apart one here the other one here and you'll get quite an impressive soundstage like this they are also louder when playing together in one single speaker well that's sure but the connection remains stable up to maybe four or five meters but elevating them slightly hanging them somewhere can increase the reach up to maybe ten meters maybe even further so this is stereo and we can of course try connecting the JBL extreme to the JBL flip three in this case only party mode is possible this means all speakers are playing the same stereo signal and now you will ask what kind of sense does it make to connect one JBL cha extreme and one JBL flip three well you can simulate a handoff 360-degree sound source well this is one way how to use them or we can try something else I will hang the you can switch the tracks we can try hanging the flip three here for example and then we will take the extreme down to the pool we can hear it's already a bit the reach is not that good anymore we can try hanging higher and now we have music at the pool and can I can lay down here and listen to some music oh that's nice all right go up and listen to music here without the need of having to carry speakers around yeah maybe I should have turned it into my direction so you get a kind of well not multi multi room but yeah it's nice to have two speakers connected like this and playing the same music I will bring back the extreme again what I didn't show you is that you can control volume from both speakers I can reduce it here or increase here again track changes are only possible with what that speaker that you are connected to for example I can switch tracks from the flip three but I cannot do with the hit stream I can only well change volume from both or from the iPhone in case of the iPhone they are the volume is always in sync let's simulate a 360-degree speaker again and I can walk around and have a Giga bomb kind of speaker so let's have a look into that again now it still shows me the yellow flip and flip 3 which of course is not true maybe we will have to restart it I hope you can see it from there from because somewhere we're asking what kind of camera I'm using this is a small mirrorless the Lumix G m1 with the kit lens because this is pretty light setup for for a head cam I kind of I can of course switch lenses and take a much wider angle one but it would be too heavy for my head I tried it once but the camera was shaking too much it's already shaking now you can see the app is a bit well it would need some update because it's really slow it's discovering speaker but after some time a new text comes that you have to turn down music and if the speaker cannot be discovered blah blah yeah nothing happens it's not as straightforward as with ultimate use and Logitech yeah this is annoying really let's trade again also JBL Connect is not always really hundred percent stable I mean that was a problem connecting to your GPS because make sure your phone is connected as a speaker and that the speaker is not playing music okay now we have the flip and we have the JBL extreme but you have only party mode I don't know what this lets okay I turned it off that's cool so this is all I can say about JBL Connect it works and if you get it stable it works pretty well up to some distance but the distance is limited you already saw some interruptions when I put the extreme down to the pool this is about I think eight nine meters maybe and hanging them or even setting them up like this increases their range a little bit but not by far I mean with four or five meters you are quite on the on the secure side to have a good connection but everything beyond and you will probably lose let's try connecting the other flip again for stereo I'm quite impressed with the stereo feature because it really improves the sound a lot let's see if the app recognizes the public yeah it appeared here let's switch to party mode that's not so impressive like stereo and let's try hanging them somewhere okay and the black one are you here it's already oh that's the problem because I'm unconnected with very yellow one foot my phone I will leave the iPhone here so maybe it should yeah it still works and I'm feeling my garden with music now okay not much more to say about this feature it's great and maybe not hundred percent stable all the time but maybe with some update it becomes better yeah I hope this was helpful as always thumbs up if you liked it or not if you didn't let's see us in the next video until then bye bye
