{"product_id":"jbl-go-5-ultra-portable-waterproof-bluetooth-speaker","title":"JBL Go 5 Ultra-Portable Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Go 4 sold on the strength of being loud for its size and hard to kill. The Go 5 keeps both of those and adds the things that were missing: Bluetooth 6.0 with LC3, Auracast in place of the old pairing scheme, an ambient light ring, and lossless audio over the USB-C port. It still fits in a jacket pocket at 230 grams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBluetooth 6.0 with LC3, and Auracast instead of PartyBoost\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Go 5 runs Bluetooth 6.0 and supports SBC, AAC and LC3. Multi-speaker linking is by Auracast, which is the Bluetooth SIG standard rather than a JBL-only scheme — so it links to any Auracast-enabled JBL speaker, including the Flip 7, Charge 6, Xtreme 5 and Boombox 4 already in the range. Older PartyBoost speakers will not join an Auracast group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAirTouch stereo pairing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnock two Go 5 speakers together and they pair as a left and right stereo pair.
