    JBL at 70 Years Old - Article in Today's Los Angeles Times Newspaper

    This was in today's Times. I didn't realize that you could get 15" JBL woofers in new Ferrari's.

    Link didn't work for me. Try this one: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-f...223-story.html

    And nothing was said about 15-inch speakers. Here's what it said:
    Five makes of Ferrari — including the $320,000 F12 Berlinetta — can come with JBL systems with 12 to 15 speakers.
    ". . . as you have no doubt noticed, no one told the 4345 that it can't work correctly so it does anyway."—Greg Timbers

    The link works for me. I think they have "moved on" with newer articles and it is now buried within.

    No need to tweet DJT. Just convince 320,000,000 of your neighbors to spend more (or profit less) and the problem will be taken care of.

    I think that Harman should manufacture everything in Lesotho. Where's that you ask? Lesotho is a tiny country completely surrounded by South Africa. I've been buying these amazing, very well crafted "dry weave" polyester t shirts lately, and was surprised to find that they were manufactured in Lesotho.
