We are expressly forbidden to say anything about any 60th Anniversary Products until after their official release.
In 2006, JBL celebrates its 60th anniversary as the foremost manufacturer of professional and consumer loudspeakers worldwide. Founded in 1946, no other company has consistently contributed more than JBL to the evolution of audio reproduction in professional, home, automotive and multimedia applications.
People who make sound their business depend on JBL for their sound.
Hi All,
"The company that is presently known as JBL was first called Lansing Sound, Incorporated, and dated from 1 October 1946."
it's a long time of waiting till October ....let's be patient

Please help us save more info about the vintage systems. Let us register your speakers and drivers.
Here is the paper label from the first version of the D-101 15" general purpose speaker, Lansing Sound's first product. It wasn't long before Altec Lansing got wind of this and made Jim Lansing agree to stop using the term "Iconic."
As well as an overview of product plans and some comments on Greg Timbers from the President of Harman International Japan.

K2 Center? K2 Active Sub? Hmm.
Interview is from 2004 (?) or misdated.

Here's blurb on Les Paul honoring JBL's 60th. At least we can talk about that.

Just a mention of the 60th, but it's a pretext for looking at JBL's brain trust. Try the free trial to see the whole thing. Obviously, I can't post it here.

This 60th anniversary press release has a few interesting tidbits, and it also has one shocker. At least I never considered the Studio L Series direct descendants of the L100 and 4310.

The veil has been lifted on one of the models that will mark 60th anniversary:

I'm trying to be impressed with the TL260, but it's not working. The end text in that article is contradictory on the performance of high freq dispersion, and the "industrial design" is very, very cheap looking. A huge disappointment...an insult to the 250ti's legacy...and to JBL's 60th anniversary.
They better sound awfully good....'cause they look cheap.

Constant directivity and constant power response in the VHF and UHF, nominal 60° x 30° pattern.
Horizontal wider than a bullet, narrower than a slot. Vertical about the same....
Interesting. The press release has portions written directly from my L250 profile on the site. I guess I'm flattered. Now that its official, I assume it's safe to show this picture that I took last month. For what it is worth, this system was not designed by Greg Timbers. I have no idea what it sounds like.

Your flattery is not very convincing.
I can't say I blame you for not being more...well...excited. Nothing like a little plagiarism for pay, huh?
