Applications

The PRX612M is comprised of a 305 mm (12 inch) 265F Differential Drive woofer, a 2408H-1, 37.5 mm (1.5 inch) annular polymer diaphragm, neodymium compression driver mounted to a 90 by 50 degree horn, all driven by 1000 watt (dual 500 watt) Crown 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.

All PRX600 cabinets are built from a combination of 25mm (on the top and bottom for added rigidity) and 18mm, strong, light-weight poplar plywood made structurally sound with tongue and groove joints. All PRX600 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. zZounds is an authorized dealer of JBL products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (19 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Stunning performance !!!"
Sound: Holy Cow this thing can get loud. Sound is faithful to what you put in. Feature: Very versitile. I plugged my iPod Nano into it directly and was blown away. Ease of Use: Plucg in almost any connection and get control right away. Quality: JBL. Need to say more? Value: I think it is too expensive. But after I heard it, I recommended to others already. Manufacturer Support: I won't need it but it seems that it will be hard to blow this thing up. The Wow Factor: Good Looking Product. Overall: I was surprised by my reaction to this bax after I heard it. Before that, I wondered why anyone would pay $700. Now I can see it. Would I pay that. No, but for someone that needs the versatility, I say it is a winner.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "In Hand Review - PRX612M vs. SRM450"
Sound: When you compare the volume and sound quality to an SRM450, the Mackie takes the cake. However - these speakers are gorgeous and aesthetics can be VERY important. I would rate these a 10 for appearance, while the Mackies are more like a 6. The sound for the JBL is an 8, while I would rate the Mackies a 9. As with most JBLs I've worked with - you need to heavily decrease the mids in order to get the best sound. Keep that in mind if you pick up a pair of these puppies. The highs are amazing on these speakers, but the 12" woofer can't beat a 15" woofer. So basically - no miracles here on the low end. Feature: Only one complaint - they put the mic/line switch right next to the gain. You could easily hit it by accident. No EQ but that is not important to me. Ease of Use: Plug it in, decrease the mids, kick up the highs, and play any genre of recorded music. Quality: This is a very solid box. It looks solid and feels solid. However, I did notice that the amp gets hot. Sounds normal I know - but I run other Class D speakers for some gigs and they run ice cold all night. Value: Wonderful and beautiful. Not incredibly expensive. But I'm not sure if these are really worth $700 each. The Wow Factor: Gorgeous speaker. Wish they made it without the monitor wedge design. It looks awkward in some settings.
