Bitter Sweet they Overheat
I bought these speakers to fill up larger rooms. We have an interactive entertainment company that frequently is set up in gymnasiums, outdoors, etc. I wanted to have an easier setup than having to put up multiple speakers. With 1500 watts I thought for sure that I had found my solution. I do some local DJ work periodically this time of year so I decided to test them out. My first setup was in a practice gym at a community college. When I first turned them on and tested them out, I was floored at how precise and crisp the sound was. I had them hooked up to one sub but I considered not even using it because I had used my old JBL EON's in this room before and hadn't pushed them too far so I figured having 3 times the power would be more than sufficient. About three quarters of the way into the 3 hour dance, one speaker turned off. I wasn't redlining anything according to the mixer and the limiter light wasn't ever blinking to indicate things were heating up. I had to leave it...

Unreliable PRX635
JBL PRX625 2x15 2-Way 1500-Watt Powered Loudspeaker, Single Speaker (Electronics)
This is one of the best sounding speakers I have listened to. At just 60 pounds each they are a roady's dream. All that said, these speakers are a disappointment. I have 4 of them and two have failed. Repairs are slow. The first one was out almost 6 weeks and it is 9 weeks now on the second one and it is still out on repair. (Update - Speaker was sent in for repair on October 8, 2011 and was returned to me on January 5. The speaker is sounding great again! Hoping this will not need repair again.)

I have read a lot of reviews that the speakers just quit working. Mine keep working but either loses one of the speakers in the cabinet or the crossover goes out or something else. They will lose power and frequency response - and once it goes, it is out. There is no period of intermittent failure.

I have about $13,000 invested in JBL speakers (I also have their subs and monitors) and...
Dynamite self-powered speakers
I own a small sound company and do everything from from small dances to 1000+ gigs. I have owned several of the JBL speaker line-ups: JRX, MRX, and the NEW PRX. I also own EAW and Yamaha. I picked up these and the 635 for more simple jobs that don't need a stack of amps, processors, etc. I knew the earlier versions of the PRX line had some amp shut-off problems. My experience with the newer updated line is flawless so far. I read the Pro Audio boards and I see no problems with the updated versions of the PRX line. I really like the smoothness of these cabs. You can get away with little of no EQing although more experienced engineers always want to tweak. They really do sound nice. No...they don't negate a couple of subwoofers if your material requires it. Never buy into the reviews that say "with these speakers" you don't need subs. It ain't so.
