Delivering a new level of affordability coupled with unprecedented performance, JBL is now offering its standard-setting PRX500 Series portable PA loudspeakers at a lower price, making the PRX500 Series the most powerful and high-performance system at its price point.

“With the refinement of the PRX500 Series’ pricing structure, every musician, DJ, venue and audio/video provider can experience high-performance, self-powered speaker systems with a degree of simplicity unmatched by competitive systems,� said Simon Jones, Director of Marketing for Portable PA, JBL Professional.

The PRX500 draws from JBL’s 60 years experience of the world’s leading loudspeaker engineering and Crown’s 40 years experience of designing and producing unmatched amplifiers. The fusion of these two brands truly makes the PRX500 Series much more than the sum of its parts.

The PRX500 Series includes JBL Differential Drive® transducers and state-of-the-art Crown Class D amplifiers, delivering high power and performance at approximately 30 percent less weight than competitive products. In fact, two PRX500 speakers deliver more performance, power and clarity than four speakers from competitive systems. Neodymium Differential Drive transducers provide high sound pressure levels with minimum distortion and power compression.

The PRX500 Series has established itself as the most versatile powered system in its class. They are incredibly light, delivering the highest performance-to-weight ratio in their class. Dependable and road tough, they’re covered with JBL’s DuraFlex™ and heavy-duty, foam-backed steel grilles.

Crown integrated digital amplifiers power the PRX500 Series. Lightweight, compact and multichannel, Crown amplifiers offer more power than competitive systems and include sophisticated DSP for EQ, crossover, system control and protection.
