Description
JBL PRX812W 12" Two-Way Full-Range Main System/Floor Monitor with Wi-Fi
The PRX812W delivers substantial output from a compact, transportable cabinet that handles both main and monitor duties with authority. Its rugged all-wood construction with DuraFlex™ finish and dent-resistant steel grille withstands the demands of touring and frequent relocation. This is a workhorse speaker built to perform night after night in mid-to-large venues.
Audio Performance & Output
A 1500-watt class-D amplifier drives the 12" two-way bass-reflex design, producing a maximum SPL output of 135 dB peak with clean, controlled dynamics thanks to the integrated dbx Type IV™ limiter circuit. The 52.6–20 kHz frequency range (main mode) and 1.850 kHz crossover frequency ensure full-spectrum coverage from tight bass through articulate midrange and crisp highs, making it ideal for capturing accurate mix references in live tracking or reinforcement sessions.
Connectivity & Control
Wi-Fi technology with the PRX Connect app enables real-time tuning and performance monitoring from any device on set, streamlining workflow during critical recording and mixing moments. Multiple input options—XLR, 1/4", and RCA connections with XLR loop-through—accommodate any mixing console or playback source, while the intelligent variable-speed fan runs only when thermal conditions demand it, keeping electrical noise to a minimum during silent passages and takes.
