Browsing at jblsynthesis.com and jbl.com today leads to the conclusion that they have discontinued everything that was any good. Maybe the web site is just broken? Let's hope so. Nothing left at synthesis but built ins. No studio monitors no HDI series, no Everest. Can't express how dissapointed I am if this holds true.

The website is broken though at least as of July 9, 2022. On my iphone

https://www.jbl.com/summit-series/ (https://www.jbl.com/summit-series/)
https://www.jbl.com/studio-monitors-specialty/
Both show as empty, including the HDI link. The classic like only shows the L82 and is missing the larger and smaller models.

It’s sort of a good thing that they see value in bringing the specialty audio products back to the original JBL branding and the Samsung Korean webpage is beginning to highlight the JBL/Mark Levinson combination.

That's a bit of a circle-jerk that goes no where!

hmm. I also noticed that JBL Synthesis hasn’t updated its Facebook or Instagram page since 2021.

Thankfully, Harman Luxury Audio continues to be active.

Some of the product pages are still there, but there's no way to find them from their main page. Google still has the links. So maybe they just need to rebuild an index for the database or something. They are taking their sweet time fixing it.
Example:
