Description

JBL PRX812W 12-Inch 2-way Powered Speaker

Wi-Fi technology allows the JBL PRX812 speaker to be remotely controlled from anywhere in the venue, making the most of this two-way powered speaker’s accurate voice in any setting.

The JBL PRX812 outputs powerful and accurate audio using a 12-inch Differential Drive® woofer. It utilizes a bass-reflex design to flatten the frequency response and offers incredible volume for such a lightweight unit. The PRX812 is an ideal choice for full-range floor monitors or front-of-house speakers, and Wi-Fi capabilities make it easy to control from anywhere in the venue.

Utilizing a D-class 1500W internal amplifier and a universally compatible power supply, the PRX812 powered speaker makes set-up a breeze. Feed your audio into the redesigned Crown connectors; offering XLR, 1/4-inch jack, and RCA phono ports, with an additional loop-through XLR allowing the speaker to be used in serial configurations. Whether used for permanent installation or as part of a reliable touring rig, the JBL PRX812 makes a convenient and effective speaker for any situation.

Remote Control Capabilities

Wi-Fi technology in the PRX812 speaker allows you to control the fine details of its output from anywhere in the venue by using the PRX Connect app, available free for iOS and Android devices. Remotely tweak the volume and fine-tune an 8-band parametric EQ to achieve the perfect tone for your space. If working with multiple speakers you can make use of the 50ms speaker delay, which minimizes nasty phase cancellations. Compatibility with the HARMAN Connected PA app affords even easier set up and control as the PRX812 will self-identify on the system and retain any previous configured settings. This remote-control capability makes it simple to optimize speaker settings for your entire audio system through a single app.

Class leading power

Inside the PRX812 is the most powerful and efficient 1500W power amplifier of its class. This means a peak SPL output of 135dB that maintains 44.8Hz to 20kHz frequency range at -10dB. The patented JBL Differential Drive® transducers allow this venue-filling power to fit in an incredibly lightweight design, and the intelligent variable-speed fan activates only when it is needed resulting in less noise and more power efficiency.

Speakers you can trust

Built of durable wooden cabinets and dent-resistant 16-gauge grills, the JBL PRX812 speakers are tough enough to withstand the roughest gigs. It’s coated in a tour-proven DuraFlex™ finish for further sustainability, and every speaker is put through the famous JBL 100-hour power test to prove its reliability. In-built dbx Type IV™ limiting assures a clear and accurate sound without damage to the hardware at high volumes, so you can be sure to put your faith in these speakers however you use them.

For high-powered efficient speakers that offer remote control capabilities, nothing comes close to the performance of the JBL PRX812 two-way powered speaker.
