Through design, PRX500 delivers the power, performance and simplicity you need in a package that's been designed to move.

Features of the JBL PRX525 2-Way Powered Loudspeaker:

If a simple set-up is required and full bandwidth output at high levels is a must, then the PRX525 is most likely the optimum solution. With the same footprint as the PRX515, the addition of another 15-inch woofer only increases the weight by 24 pounds, yet the increase in performance negates the requirement for an extra subwoofer in live music and many music playback applications. 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.

The PRX525 is a self-powered, lightweight two-way loudspeaker system capable of delivering a very high level of performance over a broad bandwidth. The PRX525 is comprised of two 15-inch (380 mm) 265F Differential Drive woofers, a 2408H 1.5-inch (37.5mm) 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.

The enclosure is constructed of quality plywood and coated in JBL's rugged DuraFlex finish. Durable polypropylene end-caps add extra protection for the cabinet. 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.

The amplifier input panel offers XLR or 1/4-inch 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.

The JBL Story

JBL's history is rooted in that of its namesake and founder, James B. Lansing. A true pioneer in Professional sound technology, Lansing developed many processes and products from the earliest motion picture sound systems in the 1930s to some of the first drivers in Leo Fender's guitar amps in the mid 1940s.

Today, JBL produces a wide variety of audio equipment, from consumer electronics to portable loudspeakers and subwoofers to high-end installed line arrays. Their commitment to innovative design is evident in everything they produce, with an emphasis on affordable, reliable gear for the working musician.
