You could also use some kind of processing. I wonder what tunings jbl has out there, I imagine there are driverack presets...

Last I looked there were XTi2 files for the PRX4XX stuff.  May be different now, though.

If the band sounds great, it's because the band IS great, if the band sound like crap, it's the soundman's fault.

Opinions expressed by me on this forum are my own and not necessarily those of the company for which I work.

I'm a little surprised that they haven't updated at least the PA+ files for the unpowered PRX boxes.  They've obviously got the tunings together, surely those updates are coming in the not too distant future.

edit - iPad auto-spell got me... or maybe it was our 3 yr. old.   :)

That's why I phrased my reply the way I did... someone simply downloading SA will not find those tunings.

Ok, a couple of quick pictures to address the feet (I know, not audiophile stuff, but important if you're a gigging band and hauling these speakers around). 
In summary,
1.) I made some feet extenders (which increased the foot height from nearly nothing to 5/8") and
2.) I moved one of the rear feet to the side edge. 
Recall that these things only have one handle - and it's on the opposite side of the newly located rear foot.  In the unmodified state, grabbing the handle with any upward force tilts the cabinet so the rear-side corner (where the foot now resides) immediately hits the ground.  Surely any used versions of these down the road are likely to have significant damage to the cabinet bottoms and to that corner in particular. 
No progress on the other issues I listed previously and I'm actually liking these speakers quite a lot. Glad I got them.
