JBL announced its Classic Series of hi-fi components that includes a music streamer, amplifier and CD player, and to complete the vintage collection, the brand’s first-ever turntable, the JBL TT350 Classic. You can see the retro styling that references to some of the vintage details, especially from the JBL SA600. The new Classic series creates a new modern standard with cleanliness of lines that follow the design language of the recently released SA750,  in the vintage aluminum and american walnut panels.

JBL’s Classic Series combines a timeless design with modern technology to create a range of vintage inspired loudspeakers and component. Inspired by the JBL SA600 amplifier from the 1960s and the exclusive SA750 integrated amplifier introduced to celebrate JBL’s 75th Anniversary in 2021, their retro styling features the same natural walnut wood veneers as the Classic Series loudspeakers.

The addition of these new models, allows music lovers to create a complete audio system with the unique combination of retro design and thoroughly modern features and acoustic performance.
