We present results from two recent runs which illustrate the performance of the PRISMA spectrometer in the proximity of the upper limit of its operational interval, namely Zr-96+Sn-124 at E-lab = 500 MeV and Xe-136+Pb-208 at E-lab = 930 MeV. In the latter run, the gamma array CLARA also allowed us to identify previously unknown gamma transitions in the nuclides Cs-136 and I-134.
