Ingress protection ratings is the level of protection given by a casing, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating represents protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).

Scoring IP54, the JBL Wave Beam's rating for solids indicates that ingress of dust is not totally prevented but dust does not enter in harmful quantities to interfere with the correct operation or impair safety, and the second number of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. JBL Wave Beam have a weight of 8.8g . We prefer a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.

For a device to be true wireless it should have no cables connecting any part of the device together, JBL Wave Beam are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires.

The JBL Wave Beam's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it. The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JBL Wave Beam's measurement is 100dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
