JBL is once again turning up the volume on its long-running celebration of music and community. As the audio giant marks eight decades of powering voices, from legendary stages to everyday playlists, the Philippines edition of JBL Sound Fest returns on December 12, 2026, at Bridgetowne Open Grounds in Pasig City.
This free concert (with passes typically earned through purchases of participating JBL products) has become a yearly highlight for Filipino music fans. It’s less a corporate product launch and more a big, open-air hangout where the brand’s signature loud, clear sound meets live performances that feel built for the crowd.
JBL Philippines has confirmed a strong mix of OPM favorites and rising names:
Cup of Joe TJ Monterde Ben&Ben Gloc-9 Silent Sanctuary Kai Montinola Siangyoo
The bill blends established favorites (Ben&Ben’s heartfelt anthems, Gloc-9’s sharp lyricism, Silent Sanctuary’s rock edge) with the current wave of popularity around Cup of Joe and TJ Monterde, plus the fresh energy of Kai Montinola and Siangyoo. It’s the kind of lineup that works for both longtime festival-goers and newer fans discovering these artists live.
JBL’s 80th anniversary has been a year-long affair of product launches, pop-ups, and festival partnerships worldwide. In the Philippines, Sound Fest has always been the most direct way the brand connects with local listeners, pairing new gear (this year’s Sound Amplified range includes the Pulse 6, bigger PartyBox models, and more) with actual stages and real crowds.
Expect the usual JBL hallmarks: powerful outdoor sound, lights, and that communal festival feeling that makes the night feel bigger than just a concert. Free VIP passes and other perks have already been tied to recent holiday promotions, so the usual “buy and register” route at jblpromo.com.ph or participating stores is the way in.
Mark the date: December 12, 2026, Bridgetowne Open Grounds, Pasig City. Whether you’re there for the bass, the anthems, or just the chance to hear these artists in one place, JBL Sound Fest 2026 looks ready to deliver another loud, memorable night in the brand’s 80-year story.
Manila, Philippines – JBL continues to shape how people experience sound with its latest lineup of audio innovations, led by the JBL Pulse 6 and joined by the new PartyBox 330, and PartyBox Ultimate 2; JBL Cove M1, Cove P1, and Cove X1; Cinema SB510MK2 and SB550MK2; Tune Beam 3, Tune Buds 3, and Tune Flex 3; Wave Beam 3, Wave Buds 3, and Wave Flex 3; and Quantum 120 and Quantum 520.

The highlight of the launch is JBL Pulse 6, the latest evolution of JBL’s iconic light-and-sound speaker. Combining JBL Legendary Sound with AI Sound Boost technology, it delivers powerful, clearer audio alongside a customizable 360-degree lightshow, now featuring an illuminated handle and fresh lighting effects that move with every beat. From energetic parties to laid-back evenings, new party and ambient lighting modes let users set the mood, while Sunset Mode gradually dims the lights for a relaxing wind-down and the Bedside Lamp feature provides a soft glow with a simple double tap. With up to 12 hours of playtime and IP68 waterproof and dustproof protection, Pulse 6 brings sound and light to both indoor and outdoor gatherings.

Through the JBL One app, users can further customize their sound and lighting preferences, while Auracast™ connectivity allows them to link Pulse 6 with other compatible JBL speakers and synchronize lighting with select PartyBox speakers and JBL PartyLight products for an even bigger sound-and-light experience.
Sitti
Turn Up the Party
For gatherings that call for more energy, JBL expands the PartyBox lineup with PartyBox 330 and PartyBox Ultimate 2.
Stepping things up, the PartyBox 330 adds deeper bass, clearer highs, and a redesigned lightshow that moves with the music. With up to 18 hours of playtime, easier mobility, karaoke-ready inputs, and compatibility with JBL EasySing Mics, it is built to keep the energy going through bigger gatherings.
For full-scale celebrations, the JBL PartyBox Ultimate 2, the most powerful and advanced PartyBox ever created, delivers 1500W of JBL Legendary Sound, over 36% more than its predecessor. Its upgraded acoustic system combines professional-grade tweeters, mid-range drivers, and powerful woofers for deeper bass, richer vocals, and greater detail. An immersive full-panel lightshow and touchscreen controls bring the party to life, while built-in EasySing AI Vocal Removal transforms favorite tracks into karaoke-ready songs, and interactive party games keep the fun going.
Sound at Home
Leading JBL’s latest home audio lineup is JBL Cove, a new whole-home Wi-Fi audio system designed to make multi-room music listening simple. The JBL Cove M1, Cove P1, and Cove X1 offer different ways to enjoy JBL sound at home, from compact everyday listening to portable and powerful room-filling audio. Each speaker can be used individually, as a stereo pair, or as part of a connected system. Through the JBL One app, users can play music throughout the house or listen room by room, with different playlists for each space.
Cove P1
The Cove P1 adds portable convenience with up to 14 hours of playtime, while the P1 and X1 support Dolby Atmos® for greater depth and dimension. JBL’s Music Follows Me feature lets users transfer their music to another room with a simple press of the Moment button, without reaching for their phone or opening an app. Cove speakers also work seamlessly with compatible JBL Bar Series MK2 soundbars, allowing users to expand their setup from music listening to immersive home entertainment.
Cinema SB550MK2
Also joining JBL’s home audio lineup are the JBL Cinema SB510MK2 and JBL Cinema SB550MK2, designed to bring clearer dialogue, powerful bass, and immersive sound to movies, shows, and everyday TV viewing. Both feature dedicated center channels, Dolby Audio®, and easy connectivity for a hassle-free setup. The SB510MK2 delivers 200W of room-filling sound in an all-in-one design with a built-in subwoofer, while the SB550MK2 steps up to 360W with a separate wireless subwoofer for a more powerful cinematic experience. With JBL’s proprietary SurroundPlay technology, users can also wirelessly connect a pair of compatible JBL portable speakers (JBL Flip 7 is the compatible model at the time of launch), transforming them into rear surround channels for true surround sound at the touch of a button.
Sound That Keeps Up with You
JBL also introduces a new generation of true wireless earbuds across its Tune and Wave families, giving listeners more ways to choose the fit, features, and listening style that work best for them.
The JBL Tune Beam 3, Tune Buds 3, and Tune Flex 3 bring together JBL Pure Bass Sound, immersive spatial audio, and adaptive noise cancelling for a more personalized listening experience. Six built-in microphones with advanced beamforming technology ensure clear, natural calls, while the JBL Headphones app lets users customize their sound. With up to 48 hours of total playback, the Tune 3 range is built to move easily between music, calls, work, and entertainment throughout the day.
The Tune Beam 3 and Tune Buds 3 offer a more sealed in-ear fit, while the Tune Flex 3 gives listeners the flexibility to switch between open and sealing ear tips depending on how connected they want to stay to their surroundings.
For everyday listening, the JBL Wave Beam 3, Wave Buds 3, and Wave Flex 3 bring JBL Deep Bass Sound, up to 40 hours of total playback time, clear calls, and easy connectivity into lightweight designs made for daily use. The Wave Beam 3 and Wave Buds 3 feature Active Noise Cancelling with Smart Ambient, while the open-style Wave Flex 3 offers Active Noise Reduction with Smart Ambient for a comfortable listening experience that keeps users connected to their surroundings.
Built for Play
Rounding out the lineup are the JBL Quantum 120 and JBL Quantum 520, designed to bring players deeper into the game with immersive sound and clearer communication.
Quantum 520
Both feature JBL Quantum Spatial Sound and customizable audio through JBL QuantumENGINE, helping players hear every detail and fine-tune their setup for different games. Playing with friends? A detachable 6mm cardioid boom microphone keeps voices clear and focused, ensuring teammates never miss a crucial callout. The wired Quantum 120 offers easy connectivity across multiple platforms, while the wireless Quantum 520 delivers flexible connectivity and up to 37 hours of playback. With new colorways to choose from, gamers can also add a pop of color to their setup and play in their own style.
From home audio and portable speakers to true wireless earbuds, gaming headsets, and PartyBox systems, JBL’s latest lineup reflects the many ways people listen today. Each product brings its own take on sound, convenience, and performance, giving listeners more ways to enjoy JBL across everyday moments, entertainment, and celebrations.

Eighty years of iconic sound. Countless breakthroughs, all tuned to perfection. And now, as the brand continues its 80th anniversary celebration, the future just got louder. At the recent Sound Amplified event, JBL Philippines rolled out a full-court press of new gear that covers nearly every way we listen: portable, party, whole-home, TV, everyday earbuds, and gaming.
Here’s the complete picture, feature by feature.
Pulse 6: Light, sound, and mood in one tough package
The Pulse series has always been as much about the show as the sound. The new Pulse 6 keeps that DNA but elevates it. An upgraded 360° lightshow now runs across the body and extends into an illuminated handle, so the entire speaker becomes a moving light sculpture. Sixteen light themes (ambient and party modes) are available through the JBL One app, plus a practical bedside-lamp mode you can trigger with a double-tap and a Sunset Mode that gently fades the light and music. Audio gets real muscle too. A 30 W RMS woofer paired with a 10 W RMS tweeter delivers 40 W total, with deeper bass reaching down to 42 Hz. AI Sound Boost analyzes the track in real time to keep things clean even when you push the volume. Bluetooth 6.0 with Auracast lets you link multiple compatible speakers, and a USB-C port supports lossless playback. IP68 dust and water resistance means it can handle beach days, poolside sessions, or bathroom steam without drama. Battery life hits up to 12 hours (with a Playtime Boost option for a little extra). At ₱19,999, it’s the lifestyle portable that turns any room into a mood.
PartyBox 330 and PartyBox Ultimate 2: From backyard to full-scale fiesta
Bigger gatherings get two very different tools. The PartyBox 330 (₱35,999) is the mid-size workhorse. Dual 6.5-inch woofers and twin PEN dome tweeters deliver 280 W of punchier bass and clearer highs. A redesigned lightshow with ripple trails, strobes, and beat-synced edges keeps the energy visual. Up to 18 hours of playtime, a replaceable battery, telescopic handle, and all-terrain wheels make it genuinely mobile. Karaoke is ready out of the box with dual mic and guitar inputs that pair cleanly with JBL EasySing mics. Bluetooth 6.0, Auracast, USB-C lossless, optical, and aux round out the connections. IPX4 splash protection finishes a speaker built for real Filipino parties.
Then there’s the PartyBox Ultimate 2 (₱99,999)—JBL’s most powerful PartyBox yet. 1,500 W of output (more than 36 % stronger than its predecessor) comes from dual 10-inch woofers, mid-range drivers, and professional-grade horn-loaded tweeters. A full-panel lightshow, top-panel touchscreen controls, interactive party games, and built-in EasySing AI Vocal Removal turn any track into karaoke on the fly. Wi-Fi connectivity, splash-proof build, and the ability to fill large outdoor or venue spaces make this the one for serious events. No battery, this one lives on AC power and is meant to dominate.
JBL Cove: Finally, serious Wi-Fi multi-room audio
JBL’s first real push into whole-home Wi-Fi multi-room arrives with the Cove system, three models that work alone, as stereo pairs, or as a full multi-room setup controlled through the JBL One app. Cove M1: Compact entry point with three tweeters and a 4-inch woofer (110 W). Perfect for bedrooms, offices, or kitchens. Auto room calibration, AI Sound Boost, and Constant Sound Field keep the sound consistent.
Cove P1 (₱24,999): The portable one. Battery-powered for up to 14 hours, IP56-rated, and equipped with an up-firing driver for Dolby Atmos Music. Drop it on its charging dock at home or take it outside. Alexa built-in on some markets. Cove X1 (around ₱29,999): Flagship with four tweeters (one up-firing) and dual woofers for 200 W of room-filling power and Dolby Atmos. Best for larger living spaces.
All three support AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, Roon Ready, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi 6. A standout “Music Follows Me” feature lets you long-press the Moment button on a nearby speaker and the music (or even TV audio) moves with you—no phone required. M1 and P1 can also act as wireless surrounds with compatible JBL Bar MK2 soundbars. This is JBL’s clearest answer yet to the multi-room conversation.
Cinema Soundbars: Dialogue that actually cuts through
Two new Cinema soundbars target the everyday TV watcher who just wants clearer voices and deeper impact without a complicated setup. The SB510MK2 is the all-in-one 3.1 option with a built-in subwoofer. Dedicated center-channel drivers keep dialogue crisp so you stop asking “What did they just say?” HDMI ARC (or optical) makes setup nearly one-cable simple. Bluetooth is there for music streaming.
The SB550MK2 steps up to a more powerful 3.1 system with a separate wireless subwoofer for stronger, cleaner low end. Same focus on voice clarity via dedicated center channels, same easy connectivity. Both bring JBL’s signature energy to movies, series, and late-night gaming without needing a full home-theater rack.
Everyday listening and gaming: Six new earbuds + two Quantum headsets
Personal audio gets a broad refresh across the Tune 3 and Wave 3 families. Six true-wireless models (Beam, Buds, and Flex variants in each series) cover different fits and priorities—stem styles, classic buds, and open/flexible designs—so there’s something for every ear shape and budget. Expect the familiar JBL Pure Bass character, solid battery life, and the practical features (ANC on higher models, ambient awareness, reliable calls) that make daily carry easy.
On the gaming side, the wired Quantum 120 keeps things simple and low-latency for competitive play, while the wireless Quantum 520 adds freedom of movement without sacrificing the positional accuracy Quantum is known for. Both round out the lineup for players who want clear footsteps and immersive game audio without drama.
In one coordinated launch, JBL covered portable light-and-sound, serious party systems, whole-home multi-room, TV dialogue clarity, daily earbuds, and gaming. The common threads are practical durability (IP ratings where they matter), smarter processing (AI Sound Boost, AI Vocal Removal), better connectivity (Auracast, Wi-Fi, the JBL One app), and features that actually match how people in the Philippines gather, sing, game, and move through their homes.
Eighty years in, JBL isn’t just celebrating history. It’s making sure the next chapter is louder, smarter, and built for the way we live right now.
The iconic audio brand JBL marks its 80th anniversary with a celebration of innovation, passion and sound that have driven voices and movements for eight decades.
