Can it connect a tv
Thanks for your question. You can connect the JBL PartyBox Encore Essential to to your TV via Bluetooth and a wired connection. However, we recommend connecting it to your TV using an AUX connection to avoid audio-video delays or latency instead of Bluetooth. You may need a DAC (digital-to-analog converter) if your TV doesn't have an AUX output to achieve this setup. While this is technically possible, our PartyBox isn't designed to provide the same audio-video experience as the soundbars.

can the speaker withstand the steam of a shower? not the direct water but the steam itself.

Do any JBL have the ability to play FM? Does any product have “radio” option? So that we don’t have to use a device to play music off of?
Our JBL PartyBox Encore Essential does not have a built-in FM Radio but you may stream your favorite radio stations via Bluetooth through your source device.
