The JBL Professional PRX835W is a high-performance, self-powered three-way loudspeaker system, designed to provide exceptional sound reinforcement for both portable and permanent installations. With its dual 15-inch Differential Drive woofers, horn-loaded midrange, and advanced neodymium compression driver, the PRX835W delivers powerful, high-fidelity sound with a frequency response spanning from 35 Hz to 20 kHz. Ideal for live sound reinforcement, DJs, AV rental companies, and houses of worship, the PRX835W provides unmatched clarity, power, and versatility, ensuring every performance is heard with outstanding detail.

Equipped with a 1500W Class-D amplifier (dual 750W) and driven by JBL's sophisticated DSP, the PRX835W offers precise dynamic control, component optimization, and selectable system EQ, making it a versatile solution for any sound reinforcement application. The system features a user-selectable "Normal" and "Boost" EQ preset, allowing users to tailor the sound to the program material and room acoustics. Additionally, the DSP ensures optimized crossover functionality, dynamic limiting, and full-range protection, delivering consistent, reliable performance even at high output levels. For those needing even more control, the PRX835W offers remote Wi-Fi access to the onboard DSP via the PRX Connect app, enabling users to adjust EQ settings and gain control from anywhere within the venue.

The PRX835W uses JBL's signature Differential Drive technology, providing low distortion and high SPL capability. The 15-inch woofers, coupled with the 6.5-inch midrange transducer and 1.5-inch high-frequency compression driver, offer a wide coverage pattern of 90° x 50°, ensuring even sound distribution across the audience area. Whether you're using the speaker in a single setup or part of a larger array, the PRX835W ensures excellent front-to-back coverage with minimal sound loss or distortion.

Designed for durability and ease of use, the PRX835W features an 18 mm birch/poplar plywood enclosure with JBL's Obsidian DuraFlex finish, making it tough enough to withstand the demands of touring and heavy use. The trapezoidal design allows for convenient placement in both vertical and horizontal orientations, and the speaker is equipped with 12 M10 suspension points for easy mounting in fixed installations. For added convenience, the PRX835W includes two integrated handles with injection-molded backing cups for easy transport and setup, making it an ideal solution for mobile audio setups.

The system also includes a comprehensive array of input connectors, including two balanced XLR/1/4" combination inputs, two unbalanced RCA inputs, and an XLR loop-through output for expanded connectivity. The input section offers a sensitivity switch and LED indicators for signal presence, overload protection, and system status. Whether used for large events, clubs, or theaters, the PRX835W ensures optimal performance with 138 dB peak SPL and 130 dB continuous SPL, delivering robust sound reinforcement that meets the needs of even the most demanding audio applications.

Whether you're a touring professional, DJ, or installer, the JBL PRX835W combines advanced features, outstanding sound quality, and exceptional ease of use into one complete, self-powered loudspeaker solution.
