JBL is a legendary American audio brand that has shaped the history of sound reinforcement and consumer audio for decades. Founded in 1946 by James Bullough Lansing, the company quickly became a pioneer in loudspeakers and high-fidelity sound. Over the years, JBL's technology has become a staple at major music festivals, recording studios, and in households worldwide, ranging from professional-grade concert systems to portable Bluetooth speakers.

The manufacturing of JBL products is global, with the majority of consumer electronics like the PartyBox series and portable speakers being produced in strategic hubs in China. This centralized manufacturing allows for high-volume production and technological integration, while some high-end professional components continue to be engineered or manufactured across international sites.

Since 2017, JBL has been a core brand under the Harman International Industries umbrella, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Samsung Electronics. Based in South Korea, Samsung oversees the brand's global strategy, ensuring that JBL remains at the forefront of audio innovation through significant investment in R&D and cross-platform ecosystem integration with other Samsung smart devices.
