HARMAN Becomes NASCAR Technology Partner to Enhance Audio Experience for Racing FansHARMAN International has become a NASCAR technology partner, aimed at delivering premium audio experiences for racing fans through future racetrack audio upgrades. This partnership enables NASCAR to design and implement high-quality integrated audio systems using HARMAN Professional Solutions brands, including JBL Professional loudspeakers, Crown amplifiers, BSS digital signal processing, and more, the company says. "JBL and NASCAR are two iconic brands that were founded just two years apart in the 1940s, and will now work together to enhance one of the most thrilling and widely attended sports in the world," says Brian Divine, president of HARMAN Professional Solutions. "On any given day, thousands of fans around the world experience audio through a JBL system, and we are excited to collaborate with NASCAR through this technology partnership to bring them even closer to the action through superior sound." Founded in 1948, NASCAR is the premier sanctioning body of stock car racing in North America and operates 14 racetrack properties, including Daytona International Speedway, Talladega Superspeedway, Michigan International Speedway, Phoenix Raceway, and others. "With millions of fans attending NASCAR events in person each year -- and millions more watching on TV -- our races demand the highest levels of performance and reliability from all technical systems," says John Martin, vice president, chief technology officer at NASCAR. "Not all suppliers can meet NASCAR's rigorous standards, but HARMAN's brands have a proven legacy of innovation, exceptional sound reproduction, and day-in, day-out reliability, making their products an ideal fit for our venues." Further details on the partnership and specific audio integrations will be announced as the 2025 season progresses.
