Questions & Answers

Can the Charge 6 be connected with the original JBL Boombox

Asked by: Mjk019
Thanks for your question. No, our JBL Charge 6 uses the Auracast feature and is not backward compatible with Partyboost or JBL Connect+.

My jobless charge 6 won’t turn off just blinks

Asked by: Rickk
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We recommend pressing and holding the power button until the speaker shuts off, or resetting it by pressing and holding the volume + and play buttons until it shuts off. If you need further assistance, please contact us at: https://support.jbl.com/us/en/#contact

Can multi-speaker connection by Auracast with the JBL charge 6 be connected and JBL clip 5?

Asked by: Carrus
Yes, you can connect our JBL Charge 6 to JBL Clip 5 via Auracast. It can also be connected to other Auracast-enabled JBL speakers.
Answered by: Customer Support
Date published: 2025-12-07

can I use this device for a phone call?

Asked by: Anonymous
Thank you for your inquiry. Our JBL Charge 6 cannot be used for phone calls because it does not have a built-in microphone. While it can connect to your phone via Bluetooth for playing music, it lacks the necessary microphone for making calls. We recommend the Onyx Studio 8 as a better option, as it includes a call-handling feature.

Why no charging cable?

Asked by: First helios
Thank you for your inquiry. In efforts to reduce the environmental impact of our electronic equipment, we decided to remove the charging cable in our newest models as most consumers already have them in their homes that they can use to charge our portable speakers.

Can I pair my JBL Charger 3 to either a JBL Charger 5 or Charger 6 for a better all around sound?

Asked by: ajec
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, it is not possible to connect the JBL Charge 3 to the Charge 5 or Charge 6. The Charge 3 uses the Connect+ feature, while the Charge 5 supports the PartyBoost feature, and the Charge 6 supports the Auracast feature.
