How we ranked these pa speakers

Every pick ranks in Amazon's best-seller list for its category and has a listing with real specifications. The order mixes two things: how each model compares on the specs below (higher share of the best value in this group scores more), and how widely it is bought. The spec score runs from 9.0 to 9.8 and only compares these picks with each other. A spec the listing does not state is left out and the other specs are re-weighted; a listing with fewer than 2 stated specs is scored at half. We do not test gear in person. Full method.

  • Power weight 3
  • Woofer size weight 2
  • Mic input weight 1
  • Wireless mics included weight 1
  • Bluetooth weight 1

Buying advice: pro pa speakers

Match watts and woofer size to the job

Watts come in different forms here, so compare peak power with peak power and RMS with RMS. The JBL runs at 1300W, the TUMAN Pro 12 at 1000W peak and 500W RMS, the TUMAN Pro 15 at 1000 watts peak, and the Stage Pro 12 at 8000W peak and 1200W RMS. Woofer size also differs: the JBL has an 8-inch woofer, the TUMAN Pro 12 has a 12-inch subwoofer, and the TUMAN Pro 15 has a 15-inch speaker unit.

Count mixer channels and input types

A mixer channel takes one source, so count channels against the sources you plug in at once. The JBL has a 3-channel mixer with 1/4-inch and XLR inputs and 48V phantom power. The PRORECK Club 8000W set takes stereo RCA, 3.5mm AUX, 6.35mm and XLR combo inputs, plus 2-channel microphone input and 2-channel XLR output. The TUMAN Pro 12 and TUMAN Pro 15 play Bluetooth, USB and SD audio, with FM radio and AUX input on both.

Check stands, microphones and remotes in the box

Stands, microphones and remotes change what else you buy after the speaker. The TUMAN Pro 12 box holds two adjustable speaker stands, one wired microphone, one power cord and one 30 foot speaker cable. The TUMAN Pro 15 box holds one speaker stand, one wired microphone, one remote control and one power cord. The PRORECK Club 8000W set holds a remote control and a 6-feet power cable.

Yes. All five stream over Bluetooth. The JBL uses Bluetooth 5.0, the TUMAN Pro 12 and TUMAN Pro 15 pair with Bluetooth devices, and the PRORECK systems stream over Bluetooth as well.

The TUMAN Pro 12 box holds two adjustable speaker stands, and the TUMAN Pro 15 box holds one speaker stand.
