The JBL Everest 710GA came in a great looking color printed box with photos and specs of the headphones. Opening the box revealed a well protected product held in a semi hard zipper case. Materials used in the construction was mostly plastic with some metal. Quality of materials used were very good, as was the fit and finish. Also included was the manual, charging cable and audio cable.  Now lets hear how they sound!

The JBL’s performed very well for their price point as far as the sound goes. They were more neutral in sound signature. Highs were crisp and clean, vocals were smooth and had great resolution of the texture. The bass had good depth and good authority.  And you have to remember that there was a lot of cost in the wireless features. After all, not all of the cost went into the drivers. Add in the extra feature of Google Assistant, and you get a great bang for your buck!  Based on their design, features, quality, and performance, they have earned our Recommended Award.  For more info and complete specs, check out their website at www.jbl.com.
