Applications
PRX812W is a compact and versatile speaker in the PRX800 Series with remote Wi-Fi control of onboard DSP EQ parameters. It has been designed to deliver maximum performance for its weight and size as both a stage monitor and a front of house main PA. Two user selectable EQ settings are provided to optimize the system for either application. With a dual socket pole mount the PRX812W is a perfect match with a PRX818XLFW subwoofer, offering a high performance self-powered sub/sat system.
The PRX812W is comprised of a 12" Differential Drive woofer, a 2408H-1, 37.5 mm (1.5 in) annular polymer diaphragm, neodymium compression driver mounted to a 90 deg. by 50 deg. horn, all driven by 1500 watt Class-D digital power amplifier. Sophisticated DSP 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.
All PRX800 cabinets are built from a combination of 25 mm (on the top and bottom for added rigidity) and 18 mm, strong, light-weight poplar plywood made structurally sound with tongue and groove joints. All PRX800 Series cabinets are protected by JBL's tour proven DuraFlex finish. Grilles are made from dent-resistant 16 gauge steel and handles are made from light-weight glass-filled nylon for added strength and durability. All M10 suspension points are constructed from 14 gauge steel and have been tested with a yield-strength of 1000 lbs. each.
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 limiter lights indicate the system status and assist in setting the optimum level via the level control knob.
WI-FI Control
PRX800W Series is the first PA system in its class to feature complete wireless control via Wi-Fi, giving you a powerful new way to set up, configure and optimize the performance of your live sound system. With a free custom-designed app, you can set up and run your system in any room with ease. Whether you're working in a difficult acoustic environment or making sure you have the headroom to drive your band harder, you have the tools at your.
1500 Watts of Power
With integrated 1500-watt Class-D power amplifiers, PRX800W is the most powerful, efficient system in its class. Patented JBL Differential Drive woofer technology reduces magnet mass while increasing power handling. Both of these features work together to make PRX800W a remarkably lightweight system capable of delivering clear, pristine audio at extraordinarily high volumes.
Roadworthy and Tour Tested
They designed each aspect of the PRX800W series to perform flawlessly-even on the toughest tours. PRX800W speakers utilize the finest construction materials available, including durable wooden cabinets, tour-proven DuraFlex finish and dent-resistant 16-gauge grilles. And comprehensive mechanical, electronic and acoustic testing-including JBL's famous 100-hour power test-ensures reliability in any real-world environment.
