JBL continually engages in research related to product improvement. S ome materials, production methods and design renements are introduced into existing products without notice as a routine expression of that philosophy. For this reason, any current JBL product may dier in some respect from its published description, but will always equal or exceed the original design specications unless otherwise stated.
