The JBL IRX112BT is a portable, powered loudspeaker designed for musicians, presenters, and mobile entertainers seeking a straightforward and reliable PA solution with modern wireless convenience. This active two-way system features a 12-inch woofer and a 1-inch compression driver, each powered by its own optimized internal amplifier, delivering a balanced and powerful sound that is well-suited for vocals, instruments, and playback music. Its defining characteristic is a focus on simplicity and durability, offering essential features in a rugged, easy-to-transport package. The inclusion of Bluetooth connectivity for audio streaming and remote control via smartphone app makes it particularly user-friendly for solo performers and small groups who need to set up quickly and manage their sound from the stage.

The speaker’s integrated mixer provides two professional-grade input channels with combination XLR/TRS connectors, each equipped with dedicated volume, EQ, and reverb controls, allowing for basic but effective sound shaping. The dedicated Bluetooth channel enables wireless playback of backing tracks or break music directly from a phone or tablet, adding significant versatility without needing extra cables or equipment. For system expansion, a built-in output allows for daisy-chaining a second speaker or connecting an external subwoofer, providing scalability for larger venues or enhanced low-frequency performance. The design emphasizes intuitive operation, with all controls clearly laid out on a top-mounted panel for easy access during a performance.

Built to withstand the demands of mobile use, the IRX112BT features a durable, impact-resistant polypropylene cabinet with comfortable ergonomic handles and a built-in pole mount socket for easy elevation on a speaker stand. Its relatively lightweight design enhances portability, making it an excellent choice for gigging musicians who frequently move their own gear. By combining JBL’s proven sound quality with essential mixing, wireless streaming, and a rugged portable form factor, the IRX112BT offers an accessible and dependable all-in-one powered speaker solution that delivers professional performance without complexity.
