Can you say wow?! Many of those individual speakers I've seen before... but to see a wall of unfamiliar JBLs is really something else.

Well, I saw two things I actually own: the 4430s and the Creatures. I couldn't believe that GT was taking his time to peruse them (the Creatures).
I saw a couple of things I wish I owned, too. It looks like there's K2 S9800s on every block.
Nice to see concentrated examples of high end audio. You could spend weeks in that area alone.

That Westlake looks like a Tower Series HR-7, almost.
I think the HR-7 has a super tweeter in it though. So... :dont-know
Too bad you have to go to Tokyo to see JBL's good stuff on display.
What a great photo documentary, Don. You must be thrilled to be along on the trip...A nice tribute and nod to the Lansing Heritage Site.
I agree completely.Quote:

Killer that there's a mini in black paint with the white JBL logo painted on, a'la Cabaret.
I can't imagine the market for audio over there. Does EVERYONE have a mid-fi or better system?
(As in, not like us Americans with our Coby/Insignia kits:barf: )
SPEECHLESS! I guess the market for biger speakers or cabs even money is no problem overseas. I saw some jbl speakers I never seen or heard of.I am at my desk at work just shaking my head- speechless. I saw some jbl speaker I would love to have, two of them are studio speakers and of course jbl-9800. here on the east coast all the hi end stereo stores sale what they want to sale and what they think they can make a profit on. not giving the consumer a choice . even if they had such a place on the east coast were you can see and hear all of jbl speakers would be nice, even though I could not afford them.They say its nothing like home but some times you have to leave your own country to see whats in your own back yard:blink: . awesome pictures:applaud:
'wow' is right! I can't stop looking at those pics. I lightened up a few in order to see the details and hidden stuff. very cool.
Does anyone know what kind of amp is in the K2 room with GT? At first I thought it was an old HK Citation but now I'm not so sure. I can see what looks like green script and the heat sinks look like a Citation's- the front doesn't look like an XX, though...just curious.

its a accuphase a-60:bouncy:
O.K., so where's the Mini 4430s?
[Or are they a LHF "Exclusive".... :) ]
Reminded me of when you could go into audio shops back in the day and see a large selection of gear/speakers to pick from in front of you!

WE WANT TO HAVE ALL THOSE SPEAKERS AVAILABLE IN OUR COUNTRY TOO !!!
Oh, quit complaining... you get a better selection than we do... well at least from JBL Consumer. JBL PRO still brings down the walls at home though!
