By far the best reviews I've seen on these portable speakers. Great job 👏 Between the Ev and the JBL, utilizing just one speaker, an acoustic guitar and a microphone for vocals. Outside busking on city street corner at medium high volume, would the Jbl cut it or would you recommend the Ev for that purpose?

[@JayTaylor3dollarfilms]

Hello, thanks for the work! Which on of these items allows me to plug in an IEM direct to the box and still have sound play through? Warm regards

[@Vi3tKid420]

ill make it clean and simple since ive seen them all in person. Mackie if youre on a budget. EV8 if you dont care about price, def the cleanest & loudest. However these are meant for high/mid range, so if you want that "feel" you will need to attach a sub. jbl fell off so badly.

[@Cocoyz]

Great efforts and very detailed review!

[@djchinotsp0422]

I have the busker and it does the job for my ceremonies

[@andrewmccorkell652]

I think a couple of signs with 1234 written on them would have been better, but thanks for the comparison

[@albertlee9238]

Hi, is Mackie Thumb Go good for keyboard ?

[@yan5362]

Looking for a bluetooth battery powered and love the jbl partybox 310 specially for the bass. But found the thump go for less $$ but don't really know about the bass. Also, is it louder than the pb 310?

[@sonny9546]

I was able to directly compare JBL 310 and eon one compact, the 310 is louder and has a lot more bass, but it is heavier and bigger and it is not a professional speaker

[@banchbchsss7731]

I am looking forward for the JBL Eon One Compact mk ii

[@vjbrunzy1621]

I had one for 2 weeks.. was not a fan... Had issues with clipping with bass turned all the way down and the input volume down as well so there should have been 0 clipping but it still was showing clipping on the unit.. I returned it and just got 2 Mackie SRM Flex and even tho it's not battery powered... Being able to buy 2 of them for basically around same price as 1 mkii... Sounds way better and also 3x louder it seems

[@quinndiesel]

DC out to me is main selling point for evolve8 complete stand alone wedding ceremony rig

[@djRockalot]

Did you leapfrog/bounce a single wireless signal to/off all of them?

[@discjockeynews]

they are not compatible to link via bluetooth that way... typically, we testing we prefer to have a use XLR.. in the field at the street sound coverage, I did XLR runs with a couple of wireless jumps with belt packs to jump the roads.

[@djRockalot]

that's good @@discjockeynews yeah I wouldn't use Bluetooth in that situation but thought you may have used more robust transmitters like you mentioned.

[@kenfurs8415]

What about the yorkville

[@mahendrawardhana3189]

Where I live, the EV cost 2.5x the others. So I don't think it is really a comparison.

[@CalvinKleinManzano]

why theres no bose S1 pro plus

[@discjockeynews]

I have to buy the speakers you see in reviews.. and I didn't have the funds to buy one more unit... :(

[@LoVeAmBiEnT]

I would say Yorkville would be better than all these. I had the ev’s I sold them. They were horrible. They distort easily. They’re not loud whatsoever.

[@vicmars6145]

Ease of youth. Lost me. Bs dude wrong. So wrong on all . Click off noe!
