PRX400 series now available from JBL

Press Release: Designed to bring true professional-quality performance, power handling and durability to more affordable price points, the series includes the 15-inch PRX415M, 12-inch PRX412M and dual 15-inch PRX425 loudspeakers, as well as the 18-inch PRX418 subwoofer.

All models incorporate JBL's Sonic Guard speaker protection.

In common with all JBL Professional products, PRX400 Series loudspeakers have survived JBL's 100-hour power test, in which they are submitted to 100 hours of continuous, high-level input. The speakers also go through a barrage of unforgiving environmental and strength tests including harsh temperatures and humidity, ensuring they will perform perfectly anywhere.

All PRX400 models incorporate JBL's Sonic Guard speaker protection circuit that automatically attenuates the signal going into the high-frequency section of the speaker if too much input signal is detected, and restores normal operation when the overload condition passes.JBL PRX400 loudspeakers are designed to work hand in hand with Crown Audio's powerful and innovative XLS DriveCore and XTi2 Series amplifiers.

Crown XTi2 amplifiers incorporate enhanced pre-set performance tunings for PRX400 Series loudspeakers, including crossover points for a sat/subwoofer setup, and optimized parametric filter that bring out the full potential of PRX400 Series loudspeakers. JBL PRX400 tunings will also be available in the dbx DriveRack PA+ signal processor/complete loudspeaker management system.

The PRX400 series is available now with prices starting at £585 RRP ex VAT.
