Gee, you think this was a take off on a JBL design? :rolleyes:

"Exclusive" was the original high-end Pioneer brand using drivers designed by Bart Locanthi. It would later be renamed TAD. Hence, the JBL similarity is understandable. The following is even more derivative, being a pretty blatent copy of the JBL L300 using the same proportions and slanted front baffle for a three-way 15" bass reflex system.

Both pictures are from this site:

It summarizes all of the high end domestic audio equipment from Japan. The following is the same link through Babbelfish that provides a very rough English translation.

I had to resort to requesting some hand-holding to understand why Don't image Link was failed (turned-out to be really, really slow, and timed-out...), so here is the image:
