In Reply to: Who makes their own drivers ? posted by J. Phelan on September 5, 2011 at 23:09:26:
At one time JBL made all of theirs, including the lower end products. (I used to be a JBL rep and toured the factory.) However, with all of their many related Harman business units and overseas manufacturing I doubt that they make anything but their pro line stuff in the USA these days. Harman once owned Audax of France, a driver manufacturer, but I think that has changed.
The Morel line is not that visible but they make their own drivers. They are similar in design to Dynaudio.
These days many might claim to have their own driver designs but so many are outsourced to some Far Eastern manufacturing plant. Allison was having Eminence build their woofers. Eminence recently blew-out the remaining Allison woofers locally via Craigslist. (I was surprised they didn't dump them to Parts Express.)
Celestion is another one that made their own drivers. They still might do that but they might make many of them in a China factory. They make a lot of their pro stuff there. Eminence built a factory in China to be more competitive with Celestion.
