I am reminded of the advertising campaign used by JBL for
several years where they claimed that since the majority of US pop/jazz
music studios
used JBL monitors in their for control rooms - it was only
logical to use JBL brand speakers in your home, in order to hear the sound
as the engineers intended.

Yes I remember that too. Clever advertising, and
by all accounts successful. A lot of people bought
the JBL Century 100's for home use.

The UK record company where I worked
had a monster pair of JBLs in studio II.
They were put up only when a client (usually
American) specifically asked for them.

The canteen also bought in Budweiser beer.
There is no accounting for taste:-)
