The updated line consists of three PartyBox designs, two portable speakers, and one bedside essential, all with the goal of an improved sensory audio setup. Now available in the Philippines, the line hopes to cater to Filipinos’ various audio needs, be it making the dance floor shake or jamming out with a small group outdoors.

“JBL is top of mind for all of our end consumers. Filipinos believe in the product, giving us the confirmation to move to the next level,” said Grace Koh, Harman Asia-Pacific vice-president and general manager for consumer audio, at the launch on May 28 in Quezon City.

Larry Secreto, Harman Philippines’ country head, said that the updated powerful party speakers and personalized compact portables came from “listening to the Filipino consumers.”
