News Release for Immediate Release JBL Professional 8500 Balboa Blvd. Northridge, CA 91329 Phone: 818-894-8850 Fax: 818-830-1220 www.jblpro.com NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For more information contact: Travis McGee, Griffin Public Relations & Marketing Phone: (212) 481-3456 Ext 24 email: [email protected] For text and photo files go to the JBL Press Room at: http://www.jblpro.com/pressroom JBL PROFESSIONAL AND CROWN DIGITAL-B-CHAIN SOUND SYSTEM STARS AT MARCUS THEATRES’® NEW STATE-OF-THE-ART ULTRASCREEN® VENUE LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, March 13, 2007 — Underscoring JBL Professional’s ability to provide the cinema exhibition community with advanced loudspeaker systems that match the multi-dimensional audio of today’s most successful movies, leading theater chain Marcus Theatres® has installed its fifth Digital-B-Chain™ Cinema sound system, featuring loudspeakers from JBL Professional and amplifica- tion, networking and processing from Crown International at its new Sturtevant, Wisconsin UltraScreen® theater near Milwaukee. Headquartered in Milwaukee, Marcus Theatres is the ninth largest theater circuit in the U.S. with 483 screens at 41 locations. In November, it opened a new 13-screen complex in Sturtevant featuring the company’s fifth branded UltraScreen installation with the Harman Pro Group Digital B-Chain technol- ogy. The theaters feature a 70-foot wide screen, 400-500 seats, and boast the highest quality surround sound in support of those crystal clear images. “We chose the Digital-B-chain technology because of its control and versatility and because it is Digital Cinema ready,” said Mark Collins, Manager of Projection Services, Marcus Theatres. “Also, to do justice to the UltraScreen experience, we needed a sound system that is compatible with the DTS cinema processors and that provides power and impact. We get that from the Crown amps and JBL loudspeakers.” The stage speakers are JBL 4632 ScreenArray systems, left/center/right, and powered by three Crown CTS2000 amplifiers. Any high-impact modern theater requires a substantial compliment of subwoofers, and the new Marcus UltraScreen uses six JBL 4642A stacked in one array, powered by three Crown CTS3000 amps. Surrounds are comprised of 22 JBL 8340’s, again powered by three CTS3000 amps. The total available power of the system is 24,000 watts. All components are connected via CobraNet through the Harman Digital B-Chain bridge in order to communicate with the DTS Cinema system and the Crown amps using the USP3/CN cards. - more - JBL PROFESSIONAL AND CROWN DIGITAL-B-CHAIN SOUND SYSTEM STARS AT MARCUS PAGE 2 THEATRES’® NEW STATE-OF-THE-ART ULTRASCREEN® VENUE The use of such an advanced audio system to complement the unique UltraScreen experience is part of Marcus Theatres’ deliberate move toward preparing for digital cinemas of the future. Each new theater, in fact, is designed with double-port projection windows for standard 35mm and digital projection. Many of the new complexes that Marcus builds feature the UltraScreen auditorium for state-of-the-art viewing and listening. Commenting on the installation, Stephen Morris, Marketing Director, Crown International, said today, “The Harman Pro Group’s Digital B-Chain technology can dramatically improve the sonic performance of the theater by offering the only true complete digital audio solution. However, the benefits don’t stop there. Additionally, Marcus chooses DBC® because of the efficient use of system-wide diagnostics which offer theater managers much more useful information than they’ve ever had before. We are very pleased to work with Mark Collins and his team at Marcus Theatres to make Sturtevant UltraScreen one of the highest performing movie theaters in the world.” Echoing this sentiment, Chuck Goodsell, Director of Cinema Marketing, JBL Professional noted, “Investing in a sound system with the integration advantages of the Harman Pro Group Digital B-Chain and the superiority of JBL Professional loudspeakers and Crown amplifiers, combined with the visual presentation of the UltraScreen, positions Marcus Theatres at the pinnacle of theater performance.” About JBL Professional: Headquartered in Northridge, California, JBL Professional is the world’s leading designer, manufacturer, and marketer of professional loudspeakers for recording and broadcast, musician, cinema, touring sound, commercial sound and contracting applications.

  • Past, Present and Future Harman International 2004 Annual Report
    Harman International 2004 Annual Report Past, Present and Future Our cover is a rendering of the new Shanghai, China Oriental Arts Center. Now under construction for the 2008 Olympics, it will incorporate two concert halls, an opera house and an eleven hundred seat theater. The Oriental Arts Center is one of many totally new theatres, athletic stadia and performing art centers being built to serve the most expansive Olympics in history. Harman International has received a number of significant awards and we expect to be very well represented. China is a compelling and sometimes tantalizing story for everyone. Our past, our present and our future are writ large there. Ten years ago Harman found a voracious market for our quality home audio equipment. That was the past. Numbers of very competent Chinese manufactures have developed in the years since, and have produced excellent products with increasingly recognized Chinese brand names. That is not a promising busi- ness situation for us, although our upcoming new media centers may generate revived interest—at least for a time. Our present is represented on the cover of this report. As China surges economically, its need for supportive infrastructure grows exponentially. Our professional systems are without peer, and we expect that part of our business to grow and flourish everywhere, but especially in China. It is clearly our present. The great opportunity before us, not surprisingly, is in automotive. Predictably, China is developing as a major market for automobiles and, consequently, for our Infotainment systems. We are the leader in Europe today and we are confident that we will be the leader in North America.

  • The Role of the Network in Flipped Classrooms
    WHITE PAPER PLUGGED IN: THE ROLE OF THE NETWORK IN FLIPPED CLASSROOMS How Networked AVTechnology Can Make Active Learning More Flexible EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The flipped classroom gets its name from the way it “flips” traditional lecturing in class from passively listening and taking notes to watching lecture videos online and coming to class to collaborate and study in groups. The education in a flipped classroom focuses on “active learning,” a group-based, interactive learning style that is centered on problem solving and learning by doing. To facilitate this, desks in the classroom are shifting from traditional static rows to movable workstation clusters called “pods,” where student groups work together on problems. Much of this collaborative learning involves students and teachers bringing in a variety of devices and sharing content as well as student and teacher presentations as part of the daily assignments. Technology in flipped classrooms provides this capability, ensuring flexible, scalable methods of distributing audio and video between the various student pods as well as the instructor’s station and the main display(s) in the room. By using networked AV that distributes, controls and manages audio and video over a standard IT network, educational institutions can provide the advanced collaborative capabilities these dynamic spaces need, while ensuring the spaces are able to shift and change easily as the needs of the classroom change.

Dinesh C. Paliwal, Chairman, President and CEO of Harman, accepted the award on behalf of AKG during the 52nd Annual GRAMMY Week festivities in Los Angeles. “We are deeply honored to again be recognized for more than 60 years of contribution to the science of sound,”said Paliwal.“AKG microphones and headphones perform with the world’s top entertainers, and we are delighted to help them deliver the lasting impressions that audio creates within our culture.

The award capped a busy weekend for Harman in its role as an Official Sound Partner to the 52nd annual GRAMMYs. Harman also served as title sponsor for the Clive-Davis/Recording Academy Pre-GRAMMY Gala in Los Angeles, and previewed its premium audio products in the GRAMMY VIP gifting suite.
