I was in a band in the early 70’s and I had a cabinet with two JBL D120’s. They were of an advanced design and far superior to any other speakers commonly found.
Great video. I'm a JBL fan and own a pair of C38 cabinets with D131 woofers and 075 tweeters. They've been in the family since 1954, or so. Leo Fender was not the first to use JBL speakers for guitar amplifiers! The credit belongs to Robert Crooks of Standel. I have a Standel Amp too, but with a Stephens Trusonic speaker labelled as an SS115. I believe Fender was a customer of my father in the 1950's. Fender did install JBL speakers for some customers such as Speedy West and later to compete with Standel. Paul H. Huntington Beach, CA
As a native Angeleno and audio nut, I really enjoyed this video. JBL was only about 15 miles away from where I grow up. Thank you so much for all your efforts in making this great video. And please make more. From Los Angeles.
Great video and a very comprehensive examination of JBL's history. Maybe a future episode could be devoted to KLH, since Henry Kloss made a lot of contributions to audio history.
No mention of Kenrick Sound of Japan's resurrection of JBL's classic professional loudspeakers? These are made in Japan complete rebuilds with modern enhancements and materials. Expensive yes but the only way to experience the quality of the original JBL professional line. You can also find US made, beautiful reproductions of the original JBL Hartsfield. Just lovely.
While in Germany during my Army days in 1979, I brought the JBL L150 the big brother to the L100's which no one ever talk about. They talk about the L100 but never the L150??? I still have them to this day., there my right and left speaker in my Home Theater.
L-88 Plus, basically 2 way L-100’s are another great speaker in the early 70’s lineup. I’ve had a pair for 25 yrs. Midwest speaker repair is the place for parts, they were a huge help to me when I needed to replace the tweeters. You have a great channel!
Fun video! I went to the Northridge factory in the late 70s where they taught me to recone their woofers. They were very well made and I loved seeing it!
I had a pair of L 100s . Best stereo speakers I ever owned. Had them over 30 years . Died when my crown power amp ate them by accident. Wish I still had them
I worked for a company called Broadway Electric in Cleveland, OH in the 70's. The man who owned it said in the early days of his company he had a nice young loudspeaker salesman come in. I said what is so special about that? He said his name was James B. Lansing.
What wasnt mentioned but is important is that the "flat wire" coils werent just flat, but edgewound. Imagine taking ribbon to wrap gifts and winding it around a spool on edge! Okay, its easier with copper wire, but a revolutionary invention. It gives the coil more magnetic strength while keeping the resistance where it needs to be. It's what made JBL speakers so efficient!
Back repairing D-120s and 130Fs in my amps, remembering here at least a few times hearing the 'want to save some bucks we can do round wound you know..?' 🙃
Been a fan of and an end user of JBL speakers since the '70s and will continue to do so. Looking forward to upgrading to the new SRX 900 systems very soon. You left out a lot of the cinema and pro entertainment products though. I hope you include them in the next video.
The traditional JBL logo - which you refer to as an exclamation point - is also, and primarily, a stylized diagram of a horn. The interested buyer - either professional or consumer - during the company's heyday in the 50's and 60's - would've recognized the logo as a horn first, and as an exclamation point secondarily. The exclamation point was appreciated and understood to be a witty - and classy - double entendre, consistent with the company's extremely high manufacturing standards.
@Multimedium EN Much appreciated even if I already knew most of the history. Now we are waiting for Infinity great history especially the Nudell's years. Thanks a lot and keep up the good (and honest) work. ps: just subscribed.
The 80's l-80T/L-100T were my first crush. They had excellent bass, transparent mids and detailed treble *IF* properly powered by a stout high current amp. I dreamed of the l-250t.

No mention of JBL selling their entire tooling and stock of their classic professional series to a man in Asia? Well that tooling and stock have since formed into a company in Japan called Kenrick Sound who remanufactures JBL's classic series of pro & studio audio speakers from the 1960s and 70s albeit at very high prices. There are of course modern enhancements in materials and finish... but the products remain and look much the same as they always did. This info is essential to any history of a once cherished company and especially for those who want to see their iconic legacy products carried on.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the L112. This was a great speaker imho that I bought in 1981 and still own to this day in mint condition. I had previously owned a pair of L166 Horizon's and never really cared for the sound of them, so the L112 was a welcomed new speaker at the time.
The L112 was vastly better than the infamous L100 which was an awful speaker but used in studios. The L112 and intermediate L110 were marked improvements with a smooth, detailed, low distortion response in contrast to the L100 which suffered huge peaks & dips in the midrange and gobs of ringing and stored energy.
I've always been a fan of vintage American made JBL speakers. Hard to find a pair that didn't appeal to my ears. I've had many over the last 40 years but have settled down to 6 pairs in my home at the moment.
I’m thinking about whether it’s possible to design a full-range horn that has topography to guide the full frequency to capacity by aligning an optimized deflection/refraction to the entire frequency range that preserves or is capable of mechanically adjusting for bandwidth-phase 🤔
I’m thinking about this and not sending any kind of limits to size proportion or anything. I’m just maximizing maximization. Having some thoughts, but this is a new entrance so I may not be seeing the obvious Somewhere?.
Samsung killed the top of the line ultra high end from JBL. and for that they will go down in history as the ones who killed JBL. Infinity is already dead.
JBL still produces their top of the line... DD67000 Mt. Everest is produced in Mexico. $84,000 dollars a pair. The K2 is also produced in the same plant. Which is the baby brother of the DD67000. I have a pair of 4365's which were produced in the same plant. The 4367 superseded the 4365 and are the current JBL studio monitor that is a "home" version of the JBL M2 "real" studio monitors produced a decade ago. BTW, all of these speakers were/are engineered and prototyped at JBL's famous Northridge, CA engineering/manufacturing facility.
when did JBL went apart from Altec Lansing, my father in 1970 bought some huge Altec Lansing some years after some giant JBL´s but they look the same model with a upgraded look
JBL's legacy products are being remanufactured by Kenrick Audio in Tokyo Japan. And suitable surrounds can be bought from any number of companies. The entire cone and other parts you'd have to source out at Kenrick Sound who own and use JBL's old tooling for their iconic legacy products.
Now please do a history Video of AR or ACOUSTIC RESEARCH...... AR has lots of Speaker INVENTIONS. I have owned and used many of both brand Speakers from AR and JBL since 1975. I am 66 Y/o My Speakers: 1. Vintage B&W DM-220 Speakers... My Amplifier: 2. Vintage LUXMAN L-530 Integrated Amplifier
he was dead when i was coming to this world and only 14 years later i was listening music to the sound of Altec Lansing speakers , i still have them hooked to a 50´s tube amplifier in mono but with two speakers do put modern surround to shame
Had 'em all in the '70s, Glass topped L55s, L100's (then 500.00 a pair, now insane 5K$ a a pair) I wonder if any of those old foam grilles survived? a pair of Minuets, and the home version of the L4320, but no ring radiator only compression horn with diffractor & 15"s. Funny fact about the ring radiators, they were being used in versions of then pretty new stoplight technology. those in the know would steal them. all purchased at Graham electronics, Glendale Mall in Indpls, IN. They had a Paragon, the most beautiful all-in-one speaker I have ever seen! I last saw one in SF about 20 yrs ago. Last footnote, they didn't sell speaker stands back then. Yep, I be's a old Hippie geezer. Loved this!! Sorry I went on
when in doubt ,i always said since i was a kid with love for music, buy JBL one can´t go wrong might not be the best to your system but at least will sound good without a doubt ,there is cheap JBL , Expensive JBL and Crazy high priced wooden cabinets by JBL, so JBL will always do it, no matter if you ain´t got money or crazy rich , those that burn 1.000 € in a minute and don´t express any emotion , they could burn many times more 1.000€ and feel nothing and others don´t have that a month to power up their families (if without a teenage daughter)
I'm less than two and one-half minutes into the video, and already I know two things: One, it looks like a good video, and two, I HATE THAT AI VOICEOVER! Please, do your own voiceovers, or have another human do it.
@@ScottGrammer it’s not easy to do own voiceover when English isn’t your native language. Nobody will do it for free for me… If you want to hear my own voice, check Canton history. Thanks for watching
people here watching this miht think , in the old days this was the best but now there are tiny speakers with better sound or really good sound but they are wrong this old speakers are better than todays famous blue raincoats
JBL back then was great , JBL since late 90's to today trash made in china and cheap plastic materials . Similar goes with Marshall another great brand that todays falls in the vintage lingo because the name . There were imho better loudspeakers for your home than those to be honest . Sony made in Germany loudspeakers were excellent same goes for Yamaha . Not to forget that loudspeakers needs to be build in a case of real wood and not fake-wood or plastic and this for all brands . Dunno why people are still craving for JBL's or even Bose since they offer not more the quality like decades ago . Something we cannot compare to Technics and Sennheiser of course for their high-end products i talk about .
Their professional and luxury products are still made really well. The cheaper models are made in china because in order to compete with the current market, they have to be. Almost every manufacturer makes their budget models in china or another country because it's the only way to make high performance products at such a low price. The factories are still high quality, it just isn't American hands assembling them. But higher end models are made in JBLs own factory in Mexico. JBL still builds all of their own transducers in their own factory. I've had the pleasure of touring the factory and it is very nice. Super hard working people and tons of quality tests. All of JBL transducers go through a 100 hour stress test at maximum rated SPL before the designs are finalized, and the factory tolerances are very tight. Even sennheiser makes some of their headphones in china. The HD350BT and 450BT models are made in china, as well as several other models. And like you said, the only models that are made in Ireland and Germany are the higher end audiophile models like the HD800S, HD820, 660, etc. The only JBL Pro models that use plastic are the 3 series budget monitors and some of the lower end audiophile products. The waveguides on all of the higher end products are made of a special composite material that is resistant to resonances. So its good stuff.
@@MrKelvinAC Well big NO a brand needs to stay with their standards like we always were used to have . Look Technics now they are now an insane premium brand because yes the freaking youtubers and other so called xxx community . I bought late 90's two SL-1200MKII 's they were 650€ ( yes the euro not existed but i made the conversion ) today the same equivalent so called better is 1500€ or even 3000€ like really just because many DJ'S used it ?? Technics even sell a turntable for 15000€ as you need to pay an extra 10000€ for the reciever.... okay yes Technics = Made in Japan so it was decades ago . JBL, Bose, Marshall as many other brands been rivived by China is a big NO . Quality = zero not longlasting products . Not the new trend is audio-cassettes ?? Who really wants that . Give me CD's over audio-cassettes and even records . Sincerely what is wrong with people ? What is lacking around the world is Hi-Fi stores and repair stores . Even Tandy i miss to get pieces to repair things . Not like today all needs to come from Temu or alike with dubious quality that aren't event allowed to be sold in western countries because safety . Why can't people buy real quality instead to buy sh*t in Lidl , Target stores since those stores are not specialized to sell hi-fi materials but only food .
@@MrKelvinAC My JBL headphones is sh*t from bad quality is made of plastic with fake leather as when i move my head over my pillow or move my finger over the material itself i hear distortion and other annoying stuff yet that JBL headphones was 139€ worth so not cheap imho i expected better for that price yet in the 90's for the same equivalent a Sennheiser headphones was better as you could buy it with closed eyes without being decieved . The model i have is Tune770nc well never more .

Yes, you can check my welcome video on the main page of the channel. I don’t use AI for scripts and editing. Only for dubbing. I know it’s better to use human voice, but now I have no possibility to do it. I hope one day I’ll find someone to help with voiceovers, thanks for watching!
It sucks balls dude. Put me out of the video after a few minutes. Just narrate the damn thing.
You completely missed the range of JBL car audio speakers they introduced in the '70s
I can’t mention everything. Sorry for that. It’s not easy to create such videos :)
Or that JBL's high end legacy products have been re-manufactured for years in Japan.
not very good - just reading sales literature
What? The text is written entirely by me. It is my own work, I spent a week or two researching the history of the brand.
With everything that being revealed im starting to question everyone that unalived themselves
What the hell do you mean? You think Lansing is alive on Mars or something?
Who hates the computer voice? EL.... 100 loudspeaker. Just narrate the damn thing so it sounds like a human.
AI narration still can not do the job. Also, this video completely skips over the L series of home speakers all the way from 1970 to 1980.
