This Single Speaker Is All You Need!

From live sound reinforcement and event audio and speaking engagements to mobile DJing, the PRX ONE outputs a shocking amount of sound and boasts an intuitive workflow to boot. It features 12 vertically arranged 2.5-inch drivers, driven by JBL’s AIM (Array Inumbration Mechanics) technology, distributing crystal-clear HD audio throughout a room in a wide 130-degree x 30-degree dispersion pattern. Place the PRX ONE in the center of your performance stage, and you can be sure listeners on either side of the room will be able to hear you clearly. The JBL PRX ONE’s speaker columns connect to a 12-inch woofer that extends the frequency response down to a bone-rattling 35Hz. Playing smaller gigs? You can leave your outboard mixer at home since the PRX ONE gives you seven channels of audio to suit the whole band. There’s even a dedicated Bluetooth/aux channel for music between sets and dance tracks for weddings and parties. With 2,000 watts of peak power and a design that nearly slips into the background, the JBL PRX ONE column PA system from Sweetwater is your one-way ticket to high-impact sound in a low-profile, easy-gigging design.

7-channel digital mixer

Some column PAs really skimp when it comes to channel count. But not the JBL PRX ONE. This system gives you seven audio channels and four mic preamps to build your sound. Plug in your bass, your guitar, a couple of microphones, and a keyboard, and you’ve got reinforcement for the whole band that literally straps to your back. And yes, there’s +48-volt phantom power for all your handheld stage condensers.

Bluetooth/aux channel

Jamming along to live backing tracks or pumping out jams before a set is a no-brainer using the PRX ONE’s dedicated Bluetooth/aux channel. Now you can stream tracks wirelessly from your phone via this PA’s blazing Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, or simply plug in a laptop for DJing duties.

XLR Pass Thru

The PRX ONE’s XLR Pass Thru sends a mirror of your entire mix — gain, levels, EQ, and effects — out over a single mono XLR cable into another PA speaker or recorder. This is useful for gigs that necessitate increasing the number of speakers available or for special sets when you want to capture a memorable performance.

Knob-per-function gain, EQ, and effects

Menu diving is required on many popular column speakers, but that is not the case with the JBL PRX ONE. This PA enables even novice users to dial in gain, set EQ, and unleash a potent cocktail of reverb, chorus, and delay in 60 seconds. Sweetwater users especially like the dedicated master knob located right in the center of the control panel for easy level adjustment.

Eight user presets

Instant set recall is one of the best things about using the JBL PRX ONE. Now you can lock in settings during practice and recall them instantly when you arrive at the venue.

Onboard DriveRack tech

The dbx DriveRack gets top billing on the rider lists of many live sound engineers. In the PRX ONE, the tech is built right in. Now you can enjoy automatic feedback suppression, 8-band room tuning, and a speaker-protecting master limiter without bringing a full rack of gear.

USB 2.0 ports: charge phones and power wireless units

Whether you need to power wireless systems directly from the sub or just want to keep your phone topped off as you play backing tracks, a pair of USB 2.0 ports in the JBL PRX ONE has you covered.

Note: An optional JBL adapter cable (not included) may be required for wireless systems.

12 x 2.5-inch speaker array

A dozen 2.5-inch drivers run up and down the JBL PRX ONE’s speaker columns. These speakers contain custom high-frequency drivers with copper-capped pole pieces, delivering a smooth high-frequency response. From the air in a singer’s voice to the harmonics of a strummed acoustic guitar, the PRX ONE can faithfully reproduce any sound.

12-inch subwoofer

A 12-inch bass-reflex woofer extends this system’s low-end response all the way down to 35Hz. That’s low enough to faithfully reproduce the low E on a bass guitar, the boom of a 24-inch kick drum, and the room-shaking LFE of your favorite dancehall banger.

2,000 watts of peak power

The muscle behind the PRX ONE’s bustle is a 2,000-watt Class D power amplifier. This lightweight amp was chosen by JBL for its clean headroom and high linearity, as well as its easy transit.

Reviews

The best in my opinion...
Like all the PRX series is a very powerful speaker, sound is clean like a studio monitor, acoustic is amazing,the headroom fill every space y used it like a bigger sound system. The extra mile comes when you realize that every speaker have a real 7 channels digital mixer whit all the process on board like DBX gate, compressor, EQ... a variety of effects by Lexicon you can use as need. For me there is nothing better out there for the price to use like a live band or Dj.

Cons. You have to read the user manual to understand how to use all the features.
Music background: Dj, Production Company.
Great system
I have a 5 piece country/rock band. I have mics on kick,bass,2 guitars, fiddle and two vocals. I use my x32 mixer. To my surprise this little unit will perform from a small to medium size club!! The red light will flash when the song hits hard. It is clear and tight. Back saver and fast load in and out
Gonna get another one soon!
Used it for the 1st time in a DJ setting for a public Library event.
The space was LARGE and there was NO WAY I needed to turn the volume up anyway near the line on my behringer xenx x2222 USB mixer. Crystal Clear sound throughout the event. Could hear it all the way at the front of the room as the music was coming from the back.
I was impressed! As a DJ since 2006, you know when it sounds good or crappy. This sounds GREAT! Will get another one VERY soon!
Music background: Wedding & Event DJ, KJ singer songwriter, Vocalist with 2 albums working on #3.
The best sound in 1 speaker
I buy 2 of the JBL PRX ONE for dj use. All the pleople see this and everyone says "is a great sound and the esthetic is perfect. The best part, this speaker have a great Bluetooth, I use with my cellphone or iPad.
Music background: 26 years in the entertainment industry
Easy to Set Up and Use
