    Although not really ads, there have been quite a few tv shows that had JBLs on the set.
    The Showtime series, The Chris Isaak Show, comes to mine.

    I could never figure out what the speakers were in the basement of "That '70s Show"

    I remember that one. I have the Maxell 'Blown Away' poster on the wall behind my drum kit. Maxell's website was actually giving them away free a couple of months ago.

    They were L-88,s

    I noticed a pair of Jubals on VH1 Classic channel tonight at the back of the set of That Metal Show.

    Proffesional level gear is seldom ,if ever, advertised in anything but a proffesional medium. They sell themselves.

    I'm happy not to see JBL advertised on TV. I've only seen JBL advertised in magazines and that's about it Word of mouth is big though when it comes to quality, I got into JBL because my brother in law had a great sounding JBL set up in his car when I was a teenager!

    Other than Bose, I can't remember any ads for speakers on tv. And we all know what Bose is.
    You'll never see ads for good wine either, they don't need to. Just the cheap, garbage gut wine is advertized.
    Same for good speakers, don't need to be advertized.
    Neither is Ferrari. Doesn't seem to hurt them.

    Not advertizing hasn't hurt JBL either. In 2 1/2 years JBL has taken orders for the Everest II equal to double its target numbers, according to another post.
    The new K2 s9900 has sales already at $1M, and that's just since March.

    If you watched the TV show ( that 70's show ) there is a pair of 4311's in the basement of the house they hang out in...
    Well why not it's just one more pair...
    4340's and 250ti's what an odd pair...

    The link that follows the commercial is interesting for JBL fans, too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHAFKF4mRR4&NR=1

    and apparently it's not only in cars that India's fascination with JBL is found: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovVlcrJ12n0&NR=1
