JBL Speaker

JBL is a legendary American audio brand founded in 1946 by James Bullough Lansing. The brand played a pivotal role in the development of cinema sound and high-fidelity home audio. Initially an independent company, JBL became part of Harman International Industries, which was acquired by Samsung Electronics in 2017.

While the brand's heritage and engineering are rooted in the United States, the majority of its manufacturing today takes place in East Asia, specifically China and Vietnam, to optimize global supply chains. As of 2026, JBL remains a flagship subsidiary of Samsung, operating under the Harman division, maintaining its status as a market leader in both consumer and professional audio equipment.
