The system takes a couple of seconds to come on because of the safety of the power amp built-in if they are flying in a venue...you are not getting on a ladder to turn them on and off, therefore the delay on the amp help to prevent it from damage.

[@alecrider5077]

Thanks man, I'm thinking about buying these speakers and your review helped me so much!

[@bekkerthesokuangeldragon68]

What size ya getting? Just wondering. I'm gonna get the 15s version :3

[@DJRussellBrian]

Awesome review and very inspiring! I liked and subscribed to your channel. I just bought these speakers and i love em. Im about to make a review on them myself! You game me a lot of good ideas lol. Keep up the good work!

[@Isaachsargent]

The first sound test I didnt hear how good the bass was. BUT the second one ooof those I'm definitely going to buy

[@bekkerthesokuangeldragon68]

I'm getting the 15s version :3

[@darkzoneattractions1060]

That’s probably because he dose not a sub hooked up, these speakers are high and mid only....

[@modernirigatie9820]

I bet his neighbours love him !

[@jacobbauer5953]

Awesome video keep up the good work!

[@trainsplanesandotherthings5187]

I just bought a set a few weeks back. I've noticed after 1.5 hrs of use the back panel becomes extremely hot to the touch at 50 - 65% gain & volume. I have small battery power fans to cool off the back fearing it was overheat & blow the capacitors.

[@oscarherrerar.3496]

that is the weak point with these speakers

[@johnmiller7682]

Maybe you can help me decide. I have a small band, mostly acoustic, I run vocals, guitar, kick and every once in a while, the bass (if my bass player brings his small bass amp). I've been running original JBL non powered eons. They've served me well for 20 years and still sound great. But it's time to upgrade. Do you think these would make a good upgrade or should go with the 615's? I'm also looking at the QSC k10's, but they cost nearly twice as much. Thanks for your input.

[@organeu]

The best cabinet in its category. All the power of Harman brands. Crown power amp in impressive. Sound is amazing. Contrary to what says a reflected comment, it is true that JBL makes some loudspeakers in China and a lot in Mexico JBL factory near south California. These loudspeakers are made in the own factory of JBL/Harman with criteria of manufacturing very serioust in raised, otherwise the oldest mark of the audio industry could change name. JBL. Let us be serious, JBL it is the reference since 70 years. Produce poor quality products would be suicidal.

[@thomasbohanna1951]

John Miller the qsc k10 are awesome i have k12

[@ogsmalls5678]

John Miller try speakers from the electrovoice etx series. they are actually pretty good

[@SuperMatrix59]

Eric Morata they ha vfc e crown power amps in them

[@cheluga]

i love how he has so many speakers... but the smallest tv...

[@brandontan4876]

should check out the JBL SRX 815 damn expensive and bloody heavy, but they are one of the best things going round

[@MrSuperquesitos]

2 for monitor or small gig 40 60 people. excellent sources of audio...

[@thedailybench2527]

would you suggest these for a small dj setup beings i don't want to buy a sub

[@mikefenimore5456]

i had altos ts110 for five years ,,,upgraded to these love them . i am just a basic DJ

[@UnboxIt]

Can you do a video of these running passive to your full range amps at the bottom of the rack? Instead of using the build in amps I want to see the quality difference.

[@TristanSpeno]

Can you do a review on the JBL EON 618S?

[@ExpectBass]

Hey Doublsmm I just wanted to ask do you have any experiences with the behringer b115mp3 and behringer b1500d-pro speakers? I want to buy one of each just for home use as I really like my bass and music. However I do have a few questions as i'm a complete newbie with PA spakers. I've heard people say you may need to use something called a high pass and low pass filter for the two speakers? Also, have you heard them? Do they sound good? And one more thing, how would you connect the two speakers ? What cable would I need to purchase? And just a note; Would they still sound good if I don't use an amplify do power them (because they're active) as I don't want to spend too much money because it will only be for personal use and not for DJ'ing in large venues?

[@brandontan4876]

Other wise, i'd say check out NEXO or RCF Art series, they're insane output for the size

[@bekkerthesokuangeldragon68]

I'm gonna be getting those 2 but the 15s version and i can't wait t okill my neighbors with them. Inbcluding my 1600 watt 18 inch powered subwoofer. Also by the way what Seperate EQ sets do you have on your shelf that time you peaked out the speakers with? (I don't wanna peak dem but just wondering what the amps are)

[@scruffy2365]

Thanjs buddy great vid

[@bjjsoares]

Whats the difference between 612 and 615?

[@russell7957]

For the best bass from a PA I would consider the ( JBL (715) ) single 15. Amazing speaker if you want loud hard bass. But still you will need a subwoofer for a deep punchy bass.....

[@dgcustoms4077]

Is your room sound proof

[@d4rks33k3rz]

how do you sound proof a room? you can't, i think you mean acoustic treatment? absorbers etc

[@NorwegianGameTv]

its hard to completely soundproof but there is a lot you can do to come close

[@kunad2294]

good review.

[@cheluga]

if you plugin 2 xlrs for stereo, and you plug in "thru" to the other speaker, does it split the stereo between both speakers?

[@7550375503]

Its whatever sound system SHOULD be .

[@ziajunaidi2023]

which mic are you using to record?

[@Tetman-xx6tp]

Can you see any problem with a home preamp(marantz 7702) operating the jbls. I'm concerned with signal strength

[@lacrossewieas2411]

How’s the bass? I’m considering these.

[@mario2801]

bass is so good

[@DjDieselLive1]

The sub mode cuts the low frequencies out? I would have thought sub mode cut the high frequencies

[@STEveBeats]

you are lucky for having these

[@uromrkvic5616]

are they active?

[@batmandeltaforce]

The "boot-up" is necessary for the class D amps.

[@bekkerthesokuangeldragon68]

Yeah just like computers it takes a few seconds or a minute to boot up and turn on.

[@manuelgunner100]

I am looking to buy one of these speakers. I would need the speaker and a mixer and what other accessories? Sorry I know there might be information already but cannot get a straight answer.

[@aliframadhan1202]

that is powered by crown???

[@EPHONIC]

Are these good for a small to medium sized bar scene? I’m seeking to use them for karaoke.

[@kailumgg7736]

Yes no problem

[@EUGENEBUMAGAT]

What kind of mixer are you using

[@vancemanu9703]

thanks mate

[@phcphcphc]

I dont see a selector for LINE/MIC. Only a graphic marker next to channel 1 and 2. Is there no selector ?

[@TheMooseintree14]

All that in that room!!??? Lmfao!! Goodddd

[@poodlelord]

JBL sounds like shit what are you talking about. All they produce are high frequencies.

[@Djmann1013]

It seems like the bass response is controlled, which is important. Do these have bluetooth?

[@ledod3404]

Djmann1013 did u even watch the vid? He said in the video and showed that they had bluetooth

[@badguacamole3709]

quite an interesting world we live in today where Behringer might have better build quality than JBL on a powered speaker setup.

[@rohitsp1347]

Wich mic you use soud recod plzz replyy

[@chief2891]

I can't get my eon610 to pair with my phone so that I can use the app........It keeps asking for a Bluetooth pin/code. I've tried 0000 and 1234 and 1111 but nothing....

[@unlikehybrid8268]

Dan Carlson user manual?

[@justrockon426]

is the thru connection an out? i need to know that before buying one as a vocal stage monitor, if i want to record without any headache. thanks!

[@a1creativesstudio]

thru is out for another JBL monitor speaker to pair with..

[@remuscozma6474]

Which sound îs better 612 or 615?

[@lisaart02]

Awesome

[@brunoiacullo6756]

Qualità da Dio!!!!!

[@sonny9546]

how does that sound versus partybox 300 ?

[@JackBlack7790]

Think bigger, even Partybox 1000 can't come close 😆 Generally, comparing these speakers is pointless, because they belong to completely different categories - all partyboxes are consumer grade products, and EON series are professional grade. And by the way, two EON612 speakers and EON618S subwoofer are even cheaper than two Partybox 1000 =)

[@sonny9546]

@@JackBlack7790 partybox 1000 is equivalent to a 2.1 system with a 12 " subwoofer and 7" speakers but without stereo . Partybox 1000 against a single EON 612 will sound better with deeper bass but it's more expensive. PA speakers like Eon sound flat without a subwoofer .

[@DSilvergun]

So does the QSC K8.2 wipe the floor with these?

[@nanertadne8578]

how to pair to bluetooth thru my phone. I just want to play music thru my phone via Bluetooth

[@blakenewkirk1466]

That isn’t possible, it’s not possible to transfer music date through to the speaker. This is a professional line of speakers made for touring, DJ’s and Musicians. You need to connect it through xlr which I recommend or a quarter inch cable.

[@ivanitalo6729]

Good morning Doublsmm eh acquired less than a week ago 2 eon 615. On 10-11-2017 was playing music at moderate levels and suddenly one of the teams is silent. The speaker turns on but does not emit any sound. Help please I'm from Argentina and the page from Argentina is inaccessible. Thank you very much Ivan Italo

[@enigmaepic17]

how do they work outdoors?????

[@Mehoimany]

How do I connect these to some Behringer Eurolive B1200D-PRO subwoofers

[@larrytuni4997]

I have a JBL10 the Bluetooth is blinking and no response on the board eq not changing

[@lloydjohnlyons]

Do they come as a pair

[@YM-Lost]

You can conet to 2 s

[@macohcoding6775]

do you think they are good for home studio producers?

[@danielgraves8390]

Nope, for studio work you need speakers with a completely flat and accurate response. These speakers are very curved in the way they are tuned. Plus, the transducers would be no where near good enough to accurately re create what you're doing. Therefore they would be pretty useless. For the money of these you could get some pretty good dedicated monitors so i would go that route if i was you

[@batmandeltaforce]

In fact the JBL LSR305 or 308 are EXCELLENT and priced right.

[@christiang4248]

Question is good to sing? thanks!

[@jasonford9661]

very good for a singing machine!

[@XER239]

does channel In 1&2 allow rca connection from audio source?

[@ow_will]

They have big caps in so they need to charge before it engages everything and the tweeters have smaller or less caps so take shorter time to turn on, IF IF they are bi-amped.

[@JeurysPadilla]

Hey there I can't connect to the bluetooh

[@mikefenimore5456]

only for app, just buy the alto bluetooth connectors for bluetooth$60 bucks

[@Aka47marco]

Can you pair your phone whit the speaker via Bluetooth? ?

[@jbbenjamin]

I don't think the Bluetooth was made to play music thru..

[@larrykimmonsjr8041]

yes you can. it helps you adjust the EQ of each speaker separately

[@thingsdemystified]

To answer the OP's question, no you cannot play music through these speakers using Bluetooth. It is only there for changing the speaker settings on your phone using an app.

[@quattro4468]

@@jbbenjamin just use a cable you momo. Yeez this is pro audio or just get a shitty bestbut bluetooth speaker.

[@nastynick886]

Although its hard to gauge how loud a pair of speakers are from you tube but they sound quite bassy and quite nice the sound i like , but not very loud ?

[@Doublsmmm]

I had a bit of bass in the EQ just to prove the point they can produce those low frequency, cut that off and they get extremely loud!

[@nastynick886]

Doublsmm Hmm i quite like em , im not keen on that thing inside thougjh , but im using Alto tops they suited my pocket at the time of purchase but im thinking of upgrading after xmSs and doing a bit of a looking around . As long as they go louder than my 15" alto i be very happy with them , but the sound quality is lovely .😋

they are a good option for a dj?

yes

[@ziajunaidi2023]

These are good but not as powerful as prx series.

[@anifabates6490]

everyone who wants to bluetooth music to pa speakers just buy the same level and priced behringer speakers

[@quattro4468]

Yuk. Just get an external bluetooth adapter. Phones are ruining pro audio and hifi. Or just get those bestbuy $100 bluetooth speakers lol.

They can.. but wouldn’t recommend them for that.

[@Luka-ov1hu]

Song?

[@AaronBilger]

I never liked JBL PA speakers because they did not sound good enough or they was not loud enough sometimes both i've had 2 different sets of them and had to return them because they was just not good enough and they was the mid level cost i've always liked Yamaha, Mackie, and Cerwin vega for their PA speaker's

[@jayholley123]

shermann are also a good one

[@AaronBilger]

Jay Holley I'll test that theory if I ever buy anymore speakers.

[@jayholley123]

I have the 10" ones sound really good for what they are and also cost me a steal to i bought them :)

[@mikefenimore5456]

the bluetooth is only for app not streaming

[@mikeh7434]

I can't get mine to pair = invalid pin... anyone knows what pin works for bluetooth connect? thx

I have the same problem. I don't think the Bluetooth was made to play music thru

[@larrykimmonsjr8041]

factory reset, hold the EQ preset and EQ+ and turn on the power switch all the buttons will blink like 4 or 5 times, then release and try again

[@christophermagnusson1589]

No complaints here with these speakers. Playback. Set the modes and forget it. U.S.A. what's going on in this video 📹 I'm not sure about his juice.

[@mark-1rc502]

Hey mate just a quickie ? I watched a video on here , one guy tested the 15"s with input level set at unity playing from an I phone just as a test, and compared them to Qsc 12 , and Mackie Srm450. All set at unity with a decibel meter. These were very quiet like for like at unity and full chat from the I phone . What I was wondering is can the input levels go past unity without reaching the Clip light ? I mean like they were going less than 90db where the qsc and mackie were pushing 104 db all set at unity .

[@Doublsmmm]

Ahhh, I know what video your talking about and I also know why the JBL is so quite in that video, if you look closely you will notice the QSC and Mackie have one gain control for the sound. However the JBL has one for the input and one for the output that were both set at half so essentially the JBL was only turned 25% of the way up whereas the QSC and Mackie were at 50%. I've run really hot signals into the JBLs with the input level all the way (master volume obviously quite low) and never had any issues with clipping. Hope this helps you!

[@mark-1rc502]

Doublsmm Yes thank you You've been a great help I've faith in JBL products and would be very surprised if they made a crap speaker. Cheers 👍

[@HoodiesMusic]

Mark C i own a 15" and the sound will only reach peak if u use the ap

[@mark-1rc502]

HoodiesMusic Hmm I been seeing these videos about the best tune for it ? Using a mobile or something I thought what the Heck is that about ? To be really honest I'm not a dj I'm just a music enthusiast , but I like it loud . With good sound of course my Alto 115a distort when you crank em up . I can't have the contour button on or it'll blow the Woofer up into orbit .

[@organeu]

JBL EON 615 The best cabinet in its category. All the power of Harman brands. Crown power amp in impressive. Sound is amazing. i USE 6 as stage monitors in a blues rock band, never a problem of feed back, great bass power, extraordinary treble, mediums sings, all is perfect. Contrary to what says a reflected comment, it is true that JBL makes some loudspeakers in China and a lot in Mexico JBL factory near south California. These loudspeakers are made in the own factory of JBL/Harman with criteria of manufacturing very serioust in raised, otherwise the oldest mark of the audio industry could change name. JBL. Let us be serious, JBL it is the reference since 70 years. Produce poor quality products would be suicidal.

[@emanuelechinnici3441]

What does thru means?

[@a1creativesstudio]

thru port is to connect it with another jbl monitor speaker with XLR

[@JLozdrummin]

If you want to put another speaker it's also called tethering.

[@manuelecocchetti6888]

Un po di lingua in italiano??

[@PlatinumEagleStudios]

You should try to snag an old pair of JBL pro speakers from the 80's. The 80's was when JBL was building their drivers in the USA. Now JBL makes their stuff in Mexico and China but that does not mean they are bad. They still sound great but the older ones were far better because they were made entirely in the USA
