JBL Synthesis Expands Home Cinema Lineup

HARMAN Luxury Audio Group has unveiled a major expansion of its immersive audio home cinema lineup, introducing nine new JBL Synthesis Custom Loudspeakers (SCL) alongside three next-generation processing and amplification components.

Rather than focusing on a single flagship product, this launch is about building a bigger, more cohesive ecosystem. As residential cinemas and luxury home installations grow more complex, scalability and system-wide integration are becoming just as important as outright performance.

The loudspeakers, subwoofers, processing and amplification have been developed to ensure consistent voicing, predictable behaviour and scalable performance. For integrators dealing with ever-larger immersive installations, that kind of cohesion is arguably more valuable than any single spec-sheet headline.

Front and centre (no pun!) is a significant expansion of the JBL Synthesis Custom Loudspeaker (SCL) range. All the new models are timbre-matched and designed to work seamlessly within a complete JBL Synthesis system, so whether you’re building a dedicated cinema or a multi-purpose luxury living space, everything is engineered to speak the same sonic language.

Jim Garrett, Senior Director for Product Strategy and Planning at HARMAN Luxury Audio said “With this new generation of JBL Synthesis loudspeakers and electronics, we’re delivering the most complete and flexible immersive audio ecosystem we’ve ever offered. From architectural in-wall solutions to in-room loudspeakers and advanced processing platforms, every product is designed to work together as part of a cohesive system. This expansion gives integrators and designers the tools they need to create reference-level cinema experiences.”

Availability

The expanded JBL Synthesis range is set to start shipping in Q4 2026, with pricing and regional availability to follow closer to launch.
