For pure bass, nothing beats JBL® bass.
Deep, accurate bass that costlier products can’t match.
The J88’s JBL drivers generate clarity and extended bass that competitive products simply can’t compete with. Pure, accurate bass means you hear the truth from your music. J88's unique, DJ pivot mechanism lets you rotate either ear-cup up to 180 degrees, and an in-line microphone lets you take calls without taking the headphones off. Bold styling sets J88 headphones apart, and the uncompromising sound is pure JBL.
Key Features
Bold JBL design and premium finishing
From the brushed stainless steel headband and ear-cup accents to the matte black or white housings, from the embossed, metallic JBL logos to the cable that matches the ear pads, these headphones are designed to be as pleasing to the eyes as they are to the ears.
Premium, high-performance JBL drivers
JBL drivers deliver precise, powerful sound for an exceptional listening experience. Bass is pure, deep and accurately produced – the calling card of legendary JBL sound. As a result, J88 headphones outperform competitive products costing much more.
Rotating, 180-degree DJ pivot mechanism
Sometimes you need to be aware of more than just your music. J88 ear-cups rotate up to 180 degrees while you’re wearing them so you can keep one ear on your audio and one ear on external sounds or conversations. The ear-cups rotate under the headband for easy storage and transport.
Soft leather ear cushions
Our ear cushions feature a soft leather that provides longwearing comfort. It also helps maintain an acoustic seal on the ear, which improves the headphones’ passive noise reduction. And that means a purer listening experience.
Closed-back design
J88i headphones feature a closed-back design that blocks ambient noise and minimizes leaking. So outside noise stays outside, and your listening experience stays yours and yours alone.
Single-side, detachable cable
Tangled cables are a constant source of frustration. But not with the J88s. The tangle-resistant, flat elastomer cable connects to just one ear-cup, which further minimizes tangling. The cable detaches from the ear-cup for added flexibility.
Cable-locking mechanism
A unique, twist-lock mechanism keeps the detachable cable secure when it’s connected. When you plug the cable into the ear-cup, a simple twist locks it in place.
Rugged strain relief
A strong, secure connection between the housing and cable is critical for both durability and sound quality. J88 rugged strain relief connector dampens vibration for enhanced acoustic performance.
Gold-plated jack with extension ring
The gold-plated jack incorporates an extension ring that works with most custom smartphone covers and cases. So you don’t have to slip off your protective case to connect the headphones.
Padded carry pouch
JBL sound is always worth protecting. An included padded carry pouch keeps the headphones safe from bumps and bruises when you’re not wearing them.
