Rated 5 out of 5

Tested out my JBL prx one today in a Karaoke setting. Got it in late December 2024. Sang a song I've sang so many times I could walk around the room with no need to look at the words. Mack the Knife. ???? I could NOT tell if the sound was louder or quiter on either side of my head as I moved. To the best of my sound understanding, it was balanced beautifully! This thing is AWESOME! Gonna ABSOLUTELY get 1 more of these! #recommended #jblprxone #weddingandeventdjsince2006 #qualitysound #bumpin

Fantastic PA

Been using this strictly as a battery powered PA for over 1 year. Good power, excellent battery endurance. Frankly, I will die before the battery does. Excellent vocal PA. No power drop-off when paired with an acoustic guitar. Quick set-up. There is a learning curve, though, with the digital controls.

A great PA with lots of features!

The PRX ONE is a great sounding PA and fairly easy to use. Perfect for any gigging musician who is tired of lugging around a lot of heavy equipment. The one thing that needs to be improved is gain adjustments on the JBL Pro Connect App. It's way too "twitchy" and difficult to make small adjustments. I have found it much easier to do the adjustments on the unit itself.

PRX One = 5 stars, Pro Connect App = 2.5 stars

I have been using this for a week. So far sound is great and the features really help tune th sound to the listening environment. My only complaint so far is the Pro Connect App. It works on IOS devices but not very well. I can't get the android version to function at all. Looking forward to the app being fixed because it's one of the reasons I chose this item.

Wonderful for solo acoustic performances

I finally made the jump from acoustic amps, to a traditional PA system, the JBL PRX ONE, and it is a wonderful system. The built-in mixing console is so easy to use, and I finally had a chance last weekend to watch another musician use my system for a solo performance, and the sound was exceptional. I haven't had the need to set up a monitor, but it may not be possible with this system. Additionally, I do feel that the PA levels need to be pretty high for a reasonably sized restaurant. But there is still headroom to spare. The lack of an output for a monitor is the only drawback I've seen so far. Highly recommended.

Need tuitorials!

When we shopped for the PRX ONE the Guitar Center sales person could not figure out many of the features and was not able to help us operate the tower, so we didn't buy it. I spent more time online and decided I wanted to buy direct from JBL and see if I could learn to run it. Upon set up I could not get sound... nothing! so I called customer support, it took two techs and about an hour to get it up and running. We have now used the prx one for two shows and are very happy with the sound and easy setup. I have mastered the basic functions, but still need help learning the ins and outs of the app and the tower functions. I am not finding tutorials online and I have not had time to call back in to get help from tech support. I really want to LOVE this tower, but I am pretty disappointed at the lack of tutorials and finding it frustrating to learn on the fly... at last nights show I lost Bluetooth connection with the app over the set break and had about 2 minutes of panic because I could not get the tower going. I was able to operate it on the tower itself but the app was never able to reconnect. Please send links to detailed tutorials on the prx one and app. Thank you, Pam

A revolution in portable audio systems, the JBL PRX ONE All-In-One Powered Column PA System combines advanced technology with user-friendly features to deliver unmatched sound quality. This compact, sleek system is equipped with a 7-channel digital mixer, professional DSP, superior audio connectivity, and Bluetooth capabilities, all controlled via the JBL Pro Connect universal app.

The PRX ONE stands out with its impressive 130db max SPL, ensuring consistent, powerful sound projection from front to back. This is achieved through its custom-engineered 12-tweeter column array, integrated with JBL AIM acoustic technology, a 12-inch bass-reflex woofer, and a built-in 2,000-watt (peak) amplifier.

The system offers a comprehensive suite of professional Lexicon and dbx effects, including reverb, delay, compression, and dbx Drive Rack technology with AFS Pro Automatic Feedback Suppression. This allows users to create high-quality sound quickly and efficiently, without the need for additional equipment.

The PRX ONE's versatile I/Os, complete with dedicated phantom power and Hi-Z inputs, along with pro-grade Neutrik connectors, make it easy to connect microphones, instruments, mobile devices, and wireless rigs. Its sophisticated Bluetooth 5.0 features further enhance its connectivity capabilities.

The system's high-frequency performance is optimized down to 500 Hz, allowing the woofer to deliver a more natural, accurate bass sound.

The PRX ONE's 2,000-watt Class D amplifier with power factor correction delivers clean, stable power through various voltages, ensuring longevity of components and reliable operation anywhere. The system's built-in ducking feature, which lowers background music when speech is detected, ensures presenters, teachers, and fitness instructors will always be heard loud and clear.

The PRX ONE's Soundcraft-designed dual-mode mixer is optimized for fast navigation, while its full-color LCD screen provides complete access to DSP, EQ, and dynamics. The system also features a Setup Saver that saves snapshots for easy recall, and Simple Success dynamic LED metering for fast, easy verification of levels and channel functions.

With robust DSP and custom presets, the PRX ONE is a versatile system that can be used in both portable applications and fixed installations. Its class-leading connectivity features, including two independent channels of true +48V phantom power, four XLR Combo jacks, one 1/8-inch in, two dedicated Hi-Z inputs, and Bluetooth 5.0 functions, make it a truly all-in-one control ecosystem.

The JBL PRX ONE All-In-One Powered Column PA System is not only a powerful and versatile audio solution, but also a reliable one. Each unit undergoes 100 hours of JBL stress testing to ensure it can withstand real-world conditions, making it a trusted choice for any audio needs.
