JBL and Crown: A Perfect Match!

The 2-way 15" is the most recognizable form of portable PA loudspeakers, the perfect balance between size and performance. The JBL PRX515 truly is an exception; it's smaller and lighter without compromising on performance. For applications requiring full bandwidth sound reproduction, using only a pair of speakers, the PRX515 delivers the optimum balance. For live music, recorded music playback and speech the user has the option of tailoring the EQ, "flat" for speech intelligibility, and "boost" for enhanced bass and crisp highs in recorded music playback. A microphone can be directly connected to the speaker input for quick on-the-fly PA applications.

JBL PRX515 2-way Speaker at a Glance:

• Self-powered lightweight speaker system
  
• Rugged DuraFlex-covered enclosure designed for years of reliable operation
  
• Crown amplifier with system status lights

Self-powered lightweight speaker system
The PRX515 is a self-powered, lightweight two-way loudspeaker system capable of delivering a very high level of performance. The PRX515 is comprised of a 15" 265F Differential Drive woofer, a 1.5" annular polymer diaphragm, neodymium compression driver mounted to a 70-degree by 70-degree horn, all driven by a multi-channel Crown International Class-D digital power amplifier. A propriety DSP chip is at the core of a fully featured input section, providing user selectable system EQ, protection, input sensitivity selection, cross-over functionality, dynamic limiting and discrete component optimization.

Rugged DuraFlex-covered enclosure designed for years of reliable operation
The PRX515 enclosure is constructed of quality plywood and coated in JBL's rugged DuraFlex finish. Durable polypropylene end-caps add extra protection for the cabinet. An integrated pole mount on the bottom end-cap enables easy deployment. The CNC machined steel grille wraps around the sides of the enclosure so there are no protruding lips on the front of the box to create acoustical interference. The grille is also lined with an acoustically transparent foam to provide additional driver protection.

Crown amplifier with system status lights
The PRX515's amplifier input panel offers XLR or 1/4" jack compatibility and a sensitivity switch provides extra flexibility, making it possible to connect literally any sound source without using a mixer. Signal present and overload lights indicate the system status and assist in setting the optimum level, via the level control knob.
