Headphones for listening to music, which give the user the very well-advertised "JBL Experience", but at the same time are much cheaper than Everest models.

A series of mid-level headphones that bridges the gap between simple everyday models of the E-series and headphones for music lovers from the JBL Everest line. As they say in JBL, Duet models give the user the very well-advertised "JBL Experience" (meaning branded bass sound, build quality, etc.), but at the same time they are much cheaper than Everest models. However, for the sake of this, I had to give up the TrueNote features that many loved, active noise reduction, multipoint and other interesting technologies that top-level wireless headphones flaunt.


Given such a narrow positioning, JBL did not chase the departing train and produce dozens of similar models, as in the mass series of JBL E or JBL Live. There are only three models in the series, which make it possible to focus on the choice of the form factor, and not to spray, choosing between a dozen of the same type of models. In 2017, Duet over-ear headphones with a combined connection, Bluetooth 4 and a built-in battery for 16 hours of operation arrived on store shelves.

In 2018, JBL released several more models ― full-size Duet NC and in-channel Duet Mini. The JBL Duet NC is a modified version of the JBL Duet BT, which has a reinforced headband, extended battery life and added active noise reduction. Well, the JBL Duet Mini has closed an empty vacancy of wireless in-ear headphones. Like older models, they stand out with a high level of sound, work via Bluetooth v 4.0 protocol and are more expensive than low-cost plugs from JBL, which are usually bought by the company to an inexpensive smartphone.
