James B.Lansing D-1004 D1004 Pair Of Speakers


⭕ Before there was a JBL, before the 1954 Hartsfield, this monumental speaker was James B. Lansings First -- and Last Top of the Line Statement Speaker . . . the James B. Lansing D-1004 Loudspeaker released in 1948 and was offered from 1948 through 1953 - it is literally a Time Capsule!
In 1948 Babe Ruth gave his famous farewell speech to baseball in Yankee Stadium, the first McDonalds opened for business, the first Nikon camera is released, Truman defeated Dewey for the Presidency of the USA, and the very first 33 1/3 LP is manufactured (in mono, of course). Also in 1948 James B. Lansing, the namesake of JBL, after more than 20 years of toiling in the audio industry designing and building OEM drivers and speakers for other companies finally has the moment that he has been waiting for - the opportunity to design and build his very first Statement Home Audio Speaker. This is the very first Top of The Line speaker designed from the ground up by him, with his drivers and crossovers, and assembled, marketed and sold by a company that bears his name -- the James B. Lansing model D-1004 / D-1005 loudspeaker depicted on this page. Even venerable McIntosh had not yet been formed as a company at this time.
