Harman Luxury Audio Appoints JPRO as JBL Synthesis Distributor in New Zealand

JBL has experienced tremendous growth globally since launching its new range of Synthesis products over the past few years. Now, enthusiasts and consumers in New Zealand will be able to enjoy more access to the brand, thanks to the appointment of JPRO as its distributor.

JPRO is a leading and well-established New Zealand distributor and solutions provider of professional audio, video and control products. Harman Luxury Audio's appointment is effective immediately, and we're told plans are already underway to establish a strong specialist dealer network throughout New Zealand, with opportunities for consumers to experience products before purchase.  

Joni Benton, JPRO Operations Manager, told StereoNET:

These are exciting times for JPRO and we're thrilled to add an established brand like JBL Synthesis to our product portfolio. JBL has a rich legacy of innovation in cinema sound and JPRO has a 35-year history with JBL Professional in New Zealand, so it is fitting that we can further expand opportunities with JBL Synthesis in the private and home theatre, corporate media room and other luxury commercial audio spaces.

JBL Synthesis joins other Harman brands in the JPRO portfolio, including complementary product solutions from JBL Professional, AMX networked video and control and many other brands.

Together with JPRO's nationwide integrator sales channel, JPRO has appointed Mark Homan as the JBL Synthesis representative, who will work alongside JBL Synthesis engineers and specialist retailers to design and specify customised home and private theatre solutions for consumers.

Paul Edlin, JPRO Sales Director, added:

Our long-term strategy is to have a JBL Synthesis experience room in key regions throughout New Zealand that will provide consumers with the opportunity of listening and experiencing products before they purchase. Our commitment of providing nationwide support, design and training to our professional installer network extends to the luxury audio segment and we look forward to creating new long-term relationships with customers in New Zealand.

applause awards

Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.

Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.

The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.

We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
