RMS is the wattage or indicator that shows the volume the speaker is capable of outputting. We've worked on improving stable wireless connectivity with our Flip 5 via Bluetooth technology.

Q: QuestionCan I connect multiple of these together? I want to be able to listen to the same music in multiple rooms without moving the speaker every time, but I want it to be playing on multiple speakers at once.

Asked 5 years ago by Curious.

• A:Answer Yes, you can connect multiple JBL Flip 5 together and play the same music at once using the JBL PartyBoost. However, it's not recommended to have the speakers placed in different rooms as it may exhibit audio drop outs and bad connection due to distance and obstruction caused by the walls.
