Acoustic performance that outclasses the competition.
Drawing on expertise learned from building some of the finest loudspeakers in the world, JBL engineers created lightweight, over-ear headphones with a fresh look and uncompromising JBL sound. The J55’s premium drivers generate clarity and extended bass that competitive products simply can’t touch. Pure, accurate bass lets you hear the truth from your music. Our unique, DJ pivot mechanism lets you rotate either ear-cup up to 180 degrees, which frees up one ear to hear outside sound. Bold styling details, including brushed stainless steel ear-cup and headband accents, make J55 headphones an aesthetic, as well as acoustic, triumph.
The J55's 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. They also rotate under the headband for easy storage and transport.
The J55s feature a closed-back design that blocks ambient noise and minimizes leaking. So the outside noise stays outside, and your listening experience stays yours and yours alone.
The J55s have a tangle-resistant, flat elastomer cable that connects to just one ear-cup, which further minimizes tangling. The cable also detaches from the ear-cup, while a twist-lock mechanism keeps it secure when connected
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.
