Founded in 1946 by audio engineer James Bullough Lansing in Los Angeles, California, JBL is one of the most recognized names in professional and consumer audio. The company began with the D130, a 15-inch loudspeaker transducer that remained in production for over 50 years, and rose to dominance in the studio world with the L-100 — the bestselling loudspeaker of the 1970s. By 1977, a Billboard survey found that more recording studios used JBL monitors than all other brands combined. A subsidiary of Harman International (owned by Samsung Electronics), JBL operates across both consumer and professional markets from its Los Angeles headquarters.
On the professional side, JBL's studio monitor lineup includes the 3 Series MkII (305P, 306P, 308P), the flagship 7 Series (705P, 708P), and the entry-level One Series 104 reference monitors. For live sound and touring, the brand offers the EON, PRX, and SRX portable PA series, as well as the VTX line array systems used in large-scale concert sound reinforcement. JBL's cinema loudspeaker systems are also widely deployed in movie theaters worldwide.
The consumer division produces a broad range of Bluetooth speakers (including the Flip, Charge, and PartyBox lines), wireless headphones and earbuds (the Tune and Live series), and the Quantum line of gaming headsets. JBL gear spans from affordable entry-level products to high-end professional equipment, making the brand a fixture in recording studios, concert venues, home studios, and everyday listening alike.
JBL has 381 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Speakers & Accessories, Active & Passive Monitors, and Headphones & In-Ear Monitors. Their gear is featured by 65 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Pop. Notable users include Nicky Romero, Kevin Parker, and Armin Van Buuren. JBL's catalog spans the full price spectrum — from entry-level options to high-end flagships.
