SUMMARY
GTO speakers provide high-end performance at moderate pricing. JBL experts specifically evaluate each model for
overall and vocal-range voicing, intermodulation distortion, and performance at the limits. GTO speakers are also tested
to strict carmaker reliability standards. Both of these are unique to the JBL development process, something most other
competitors never pursue.
