JBL E55BT review

 

Not everyone wants to spend $300 on a premium Bluetooth headphone, which is where products like JBL's E55BT come in. An over-ear headphone and top-end model in JBL's "value" E-Series line of wireless headphones, the E55BT is the successor to the E50BT...

The JBL E55BT is an attractively designed over-ear Bluetooth headphone that's relatively comfortable, sounds decent and works reliably. It folds up and flat and has decent battery life.

A bit of treble push, no carrying case included.

JBL's new top-end model in its "value" E-Series Bluetooth headphone line delivers solid sound and a comfortable fit for the price.

JBL E55BT

 

JBL's E55BT headphones deliver a high-quality Bluetooth experience with rich, boosted bass response matched by crisp highs.

Powerful audio performance with strong bass and crisp highs. Exceptionally comfortable, even during long listening sessions. Includes cable for wired, passive listening.

No included carrying case or pouch. Sculpted sound signature not for purists.

Generally speaking, the E55BT headphones offer a sculpted-but-balanced audio experience, with robust bass response and crisp, clear highs. It's not a flat response sound signature, but it will appeal to listeners who like a little added bass depth...

At $200 JBL brings serious style to a crowded wireless headphone market with good audio fidelity and an on-trend dusty rose (pink) color to die for.

JBL E55BT Quincy Edition Wireless On-Ear Headphones Review

 

A while back, we reviewed the AKG N90Q headphones that were developed in partnership with Grammy-winning music legend Quincy Jones. Those headphones were nothing short of phenomenal, but they came with a phenomenally high price tag. Since then, JBL has...

JBL E55BT Wireless Headphones – Who Needs an Audio Jack? [Review]

 

I love headphones. I love how personal they are. That you can listen to your own music, videos, or games without disturbing other people and the same goes in reverse. I have kids who are constantly listening to music and videos and most of the time, I...

JBL E55BT review

 

These JBLs are a solid bet if you want wireless on a limited budget

Good value ; Solid Bluetooth reliability ; Full-sounding bass

Slow bass decay ; Occasionally brash mids

A reasonable effort, but JBL needs to do more to impress
