JBL Professional today introduced the PRX600 Series active portable loudspeakers.
The new PRX600 Series offers unparalleled power, rugged durability and versatility for any small to mid-sized live sound environment.
The new PRX600 Series includes four full-range cabinets (PRX612M, PRX615M, PRX625, PRX635) and two subwoofers (PRX618S and PRX618S-XLF).
Utilizing tour-tested JBL Differential Drive speaker technology, dbx Type IV limiting circuitry and Crown class-D amplifiers, the PRX600 Series delivers performance in a light, small and professional package.
At the core of the PRX line is a fully integrated DSP input section providing mic/line level input, selectable system EQ and a premium A/D converter for a maximum signal-to-noise ratio.
“We designed the PRX600 Series from the ground up to perform in the real world of sound reinforcement where challenging audio environments, high ambient noise levels and loud volumes are the norm,” said Richard Ruse, Director of Marketing, Portable PA, JBL Professional.
“Regardless of audio system requirements, the JBL PRX600 Series offers a decidedly powerful, rugged and versatile solution!”
In addition to Crown amplifiers, the PRX600 Series loudspeakers utilize new, ultra-low noise A/D converters that reduce idle noise and improve the overall spectral balance and audio performance of the speakers.
The line has been re-voiced for improved clarity and tone and, with the addition of a new, professionally discrete appearance and strategically located M-10 suspension points on the full-range cabinets; the PRX600 Series is ideal for installation in any commercial facility or house of worship.
The new models are at least 15 percent lighter and 20 percent smaller than their predecessors, making them the “performance-to-weight” ratio leaders in their class.
The new PRX600 Series speakers also meet Harman’s “Green Edge” promise of being environmentally responsible, requiring less wood and less plastic than their predecessors, using less energy to build and requiring less fuel (due to the lower weight) to transport than previous models.
All PRX600 Series loudspeakers include: JBL Differential Drive neodymium woofers; powder-coated, obsidian, 16-gauge perforated steel grilles; obsidian DuraFlex finish; integrated handles with backing cups; commercial-grade, lightweight, multi-layer, 18 mm plywood cabinetry; tongue and groove construction; dual 36 mm pole sockets on the PRX612M and PRX615M; single 36 mm pole sockets on the PRX635/PRX618S; and an M20 pole socket on the PRX618S-XLF.
