Frequently asked questions
Which one needs fewer external boxes to operate?
The PRX ONE has a built-in 7-channel mixer, so it requires only sources plugged in (no external console). The PRX935 has onboard amplification but no mixing, so you'll need an external mixer for anything beyond simple stereo input.
What's the real SPL difference, and does it matter for my venue?
The PRX935 reaches 136.1 dB max; the PRX ONE maxes at 130 dB—a 6 dB difference that translates to roughly double perceived loudness. For outdoor festivals or large rooms over 2,000 capacity, the PRX935 wins. For cafes, small clubs, and indoor events under 500 people, the PRX ONE suffices.
Which disperses sound more widely across a room?
The PRX ONE's column array spreads 130° horizontally (30° vertically), making it ideal for side-to-side coverage in narrow rooms. The PRX935's 90° x 50° pattern is tighter and more controllable, better for stage monitoring or venues where you want to avoid reflections.
Can I use either one solo without a separate mixer?
Yes for the PRX ONE—it has a 7-channel mixer built in. The PRX935 requires you to bring an external mixer or audio interface to handle multiple sources or channels.
