JBL is to personal audio what Maruti Suzuki is to automobiles. Here at Headphone Zone, we have this on-going guessing game amongst ourselves we like to call "Guess the Headphone". The JBL logo is always plastered on so glaringly on the earpieces or earcups, that it really goes without saying that JBL guesses are never even counted in our little games.

 

Enough about us, let's talk about JBL! This is one bonafide American company whose true claim to fame is their range of loudspeakers. A quick history byte: James B. Lansing founded JBL one year after leaving Altec Lansing as their Vice President of Engineering in 1945. This is a really old company that has very successfully kept up with the changing times. Today, JBL is very popular in India for its range of wireless Bluetooth speakers, Android & iOS headphones, soundbars & subwoofers.

 

JBL has some great budget headphones and earphones around the Rs. 1000 price point that suit the casual music listener to the T, especially if he really likes his bass powerful & punchy.
