Description
JBL IRx One Portable PA System
The JBL IRx One is a compact yet powerful all-in-one monitoring and reference solution designed for home studios, mobile recording sessions, and small-room mixing applications. Its integrated 3-channel mixer and professional I/O eliminate the need for external mixing consoles, making it an efficient choice for producers who need reliable near-field monitoring paired with flexible input options for tracking, playback, and mixing workflows.
Audio Performance & Coverage
Delivering 1300W peak power with a maximum SPL of 118 dB, the IRx One projects clear, articulate sound across 160° × 80° coverage—ideal for medium-sized rooms and control-room environments. The frequency response of 40–20,000 Hz (±3 dB) ensures full-range audio reproduction for critical listening, while the 6 high-frequency drivers paired with an 8" woofer and bass-reflex design deliver articulate mids and controlled low-end extension for accurate mix decisions.
Connectivity & Smart Features
The integrated 3-channel mixer accepts XLR and 1/4" inputs with 48V phantom power support, allowing you to connect microphones, instruments, and line-level sources directly without additional interface layers. Built-in Bluetooth 5.0, dbx automatic feedback suppression (AFS), 5 EQ presets, and Soundcraft audio ducking provide real-time sound-shaping and source management during recording and mixing sessions.
