“It’s important to recognise and reward great achievements whether they have
been undertaken by an individual, community or large corporation. The GUINNESS
WORLD RECORDS actively encourages their partners to creatively
visualize, challenge and achieve their full potential, we applaud JBL for
embracing this ethos by greatly surpassing the previous record. Playing 1,000
speakers simultaneously makes quite an imposing sound, it was certainly the
highlight of an impressive evening.”
