what are the dots on the tracks ?? Is that the sun and planets orbiting ?
Harming needs a new ad agency ... or send those dollars to LHF and let the members
have competitions to design ads for JBL.

Maybe you were joking, but a very similar scenario recently played out in the tennis world. Wilson developed a new racket for Roger Federer, the first in many years, but he had been using a blacked out, graphics-free beta version in public. There was huge excitement about this on the tennis blogs, and people starting speculating about what the final retail version - which was bound to be a HUGE seller - would look like. Someone posted an image of their idea on the Tennis Warehouse forum, the post was seen by Wilson, and that's the graphics design they went with. Maybe "open source marketing" is the wave of the future.
BTW, I can't figure out what they're going for in that ad either. If it is the solar system they're playing the Saturn track, but that doesn't help.
only half joking .... throw those ad dollars to LHF ... forum could have "design an ad" contests. Lots of creative minds here, bet we could do better.
looks like HAR is going to have to buy up the www.Harman.sucks domain before someone else does ? http://marketingland.com/controversi...st-here-121505
maybe it's just a dirty record ..I've seen worse.
way,way,way OT, but ....Antiques Roadshow mentioned that Wilson started out as a slaughterhouse and to find a use for all the hides ..started developing sporting equipment to use them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilson_Sporting_Goods
maybe this thread should be renamed "JBL Dogs" ??

If I was closer to you than Nashville, I'd be glad to join you for a 50-60 miler. Haven't got my legs this spring yet for a full century. I always wanted to build a randoneur/touring rig, it would be great fun. That Raleigh frame looks aluminum but it's Columbus Zona steel and rides very nicely, sometimes feels better than my previous Litespeed ti frame. Named after the legendary Raleigh Professional of yore. With the carbon wheels and sew-up tires it was even better and didn't beat you up on long rides. As decked out in the pix it was about 18 lbs., not bad even with the Brooks Swift and it felt lighter on the road, but I can't build too light since I range from 175-190 lbs.
The geometry of that frame is what did it for me though, just about perfect and was no need to have a custom frame built, except I could have used 5-7 mm. longer on the top tube. Easy to compensate for with a slightly longer stem and perhaps different angle and height so no prob. Raleigh only made those for 2 years (2002-03), factory speced with Campy but I bought the frame separate and put my own Campy parts on.
I can't quite tell from your pic, but it doesn't look like a Brooks on that rig. You mean you have a tourer and no Brooks saddle!? I'm tellin' ya man, get one! Your backside will thank you, and with minimal care they last forever.
OT but hey I could talk cycling all day (I used to sell high-end bikes). It's almost as bad as audio.
I bought a Brooks B-17 Flyer (sprung) a couple of years back ..it was slip & slide time for quite a while. Then it was great.
But last year it didn't feel comfortable anymore (it was on the dry bike, not wanting to ruin it in Oregon's infrequent rains) ..at that time I switched to a leather San Marco Concur America and it's been good. Still have the Brooks and maybe it will be good again too. I'm working on an 18 pound ALAN all Campy Guerciotti right now. (2 randoneurs, 1 Italian sprinter, 1 hybrid, 1 MB to maintain.) besides all the audio projects, the shoulder rehab, fighting the VA, computer projects, memoirs ...etc,etc.
yeah at $100+ an .oz for weight savings , it can get pricey. Or electronic shifting ....
