Can you connect JBL Connect Plus to party boost?

Answered by Ricardo McCardle

Unfortunately, you cannot connect JBL Connect Plus speakers to PartyBoost speakers. JBL Connect Plus and PartyBoost are two different technologies used by JBL to connect and synchronize multiple speakers.

JBL Connect Plus is an older technology that was introduced with speakers like the JBL Flip 4, Charge 3, Xtreme 2, and other models. It allows you to wirelessly connect up to 100 JBL Connect Plus compatible speakers together for a larger sound experience.

On the other hand, PartyBoost is a newer technology introduced with speakers like the JBL Flip 5, Pulse 4, and other newer models. It also allows you to connect multiple speakers together, but only PartyBoost compatible speakers can be paired.

The main reason for this incompatibility is the difference in the communication protocols and hardware used in these two technologies. While JBL Connect Plus uses its own proprietary technology, PartyBoost relies on a different set of protocols and hardware.

So, if you have an older JBL speaker that supports JBL Connect Plus, you won’t be able to pair it with a newer PartyBoost speaker. They simply cannot communicate with each other due to the differences in their technologies.

If you are looking to pair multiple JBL speakers together, make sure they are all either JBL Connect Plus compatible or PartyBoost compatible. This way, you can enjoy synchronized audio playback with a larger sound output.

It’s worth noting that both JBL Connect Plus and PartyBoost offer their own advantages and features, so choose the speakers that suit your needs and preferences. If you want to take advantage of the latest PartyBoost technology, consider upgrading your older JBL speakers to newer PartyBoost compatible models.

JBL Connect Plus and PartyBoost are not compatible with each other, so you cannot connect JBL Connect Plus speakers to PartyBoost speakers. Stick to pairing speakers within the same technology to ensure seamless connectivity and synchronization.
