JBL is raising the bar once more with the launch of the JBL Tour One M3 Smart Tx, its most advanced over-ear headphones to date. Packed with premium features, this cutting-edge model introduces the JBL Smart Tx audio transmitter, a first for the brand, which revolutionises wireless connectivity by streaming high-fidelity audio directly from almost any USB-C or analogue source.
Whether you’re tapping into in-flight entertainment, your TV, or a laptop, the Smart Tx ensures seamless, low-latency, high-quality sound anywhere, anytime.
The Smart Tx transmitter does more than just send audio. It gives users full control over playback, EQ, call management, and even allows broadcasting to multiple Auracast™-enabled devices. In essence, it makes the Tour One M3 completely agnostic to source or content, transforming any setup into a wireless cinematic sound system. Grace Koh, Vice President of Harman Asia Pacific, describes the Tour One M3 Smart Tx as a “revolutionary advancement” and a testament to JBL’s commitment to next-level consumer audio.
Inside, the Tour One M3 Smart Tx is powered by newly engineered 40mm Mica Dome drivers, delivering JBL’s signature deep bass and detailed highs, whether through Hi-Res Bluetooth or lossless wired connections. It also features JBL Spatial 360 with head tracking, locking sound in place for a realistic, immersive experience. JBL Personi-Fi 3.0, now more precise with a 12-band EQ and individual L/R tuning, personalises audio to your unique hearing profile through the JBL Headphones app.
Equipped with True Adaptive Noise Cancelling 2.0, the headphones use eight microphones to respond dynamically to your environment, shutting out distractions whether you’re in transit or at the office. For staying alert, Ambient Aware and TalkThru modes are customizable within the app. And for crystal-clear calls, four adaptive beamforming mics powered by JBL’s AI algorithm ensure your voice always comes through clearly. The headphones are also Zoom-certified (via wired use), ideal for work-from-anywhere professionals.
Battery life is equally impressive: the headphones boast up to 70 hours of playback, with a 5-minute quick charge delivering 5 additional hours. The JBL Smart Tx transmitter itself lasts up to 18 hours on a single charge.
The JBL Tour One M3 Smart Tx retails at S$499 and comes in Black, Mocha, and Blue. It’s available at selected JBL authorised retailers and the official JBL online store.
