About
JBL was founded in 1946 by James Bullough Lansing, a pioneering acoustic engineer whose innovations in speaker driver design set a reference standard in professional audio. Based in Los Angeles, Lansing's work for the film industry and live music venues established JBL's dual professional and consumer lineage. The brand is owned by HARMAN International, a Samsung Electronics subsidiary acquired in 2017 for $8 billion, alongside Harman Kardon, AKG, and Lexicon.\n\nJBL's product range spans professional installation loudspeakers, studio reference monitors, Bluetooth portable speakers (Charge, Flip, Xtreme, PartyBox), wireless headphones and earbuds (Tour, Tune, Reflect series), and home theater soundbars. The portable Bluetooth segment drives primary consumer growth. JBL is the official sound system for major sporting venues and music festivals worldwide and appears as a factory-installed brand in BMW, Toyota, and Lexus vehicles.\n\nWith 75+ years of innovation and presence in 100+ countries, JBL is one of the highest-recognition audio brands globally across both professional and consumer markets. Automotive integration through HARMAN exposes the brand to hundreds of millions of car buyers annually. JBL's combination of professional heritage, multi-tier consumer pricing, and deep embedding in the Samsung and HARMAN ecosystem makes it one of the highest-volume audio brands in the world.
