New JBL EON710 Review and Sound Test Is This The Best Budget Portable PA Speaker On The Market?

[@13bcoffee]

Get the 12 inch version which is the 712 and you can gig with that. I used a pair of 712's with a subwoofer and it works out pretty good. I use this setup when I am going to play via bluetooth. I also own the 912's which are much louder and would compare to the QSC K12's.

[@sazprodj]

Excellent reviews in your channels. For large sized events and ballrooms, which speaker would be great in addition to two Bose pro 32s, is JBL eon 710 or QSC cp8 good options. Thanks in advance.

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

QSC CP8 is noticeably louder than the JBL 710. Almost any top brand has cleaner highs than Bose which match up great with the Bose famous smooth midrange: QSC, RCF, JBL, EV, TurboSound. QSC and JBL have a 6 year warranty. Only Yamaha which has a similar midrange/mid bass and rolled off highs would not pair well with Bose.

[@sazprodj]

@@WWeiss-nv5vz I have heard JBL Eon 710s they sound nice but for my needs I need louder. I have F1s that I am selling and they sound incredible for the front and extra support at the back for larger ballrooms with more people. Most likely be replacing QSC k 8.2 for extra support with pro 32s on the front. Thanks for your advise.

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

@@sazprodj Agree, K8.2 is much louder than JBL710 and would be the better choice.

[@mez_official]

Hey Weiss! Great video. Need a new setup for event gigs this summer. Budget for speakers is Max 1300$. I guess versatility is important (small to medium sized events(100pax)). What speakers do you recommend? Best. Mads

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Glad you liked the video! If you can pony up another $200 a pair of QSC K8.2 at $1,500 is incredible! Next step down, a pair of QSC CP8's at $1,000 is my bargain of the PA World recommendation. Hope you have a sub:) Check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKrQlGukhrF_a9k

The EON710 is defiantly a better speaker than the Partybox 110? more bass than the Partybox 110?

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Louder yes, better bass not so sure? I haven't A/B ed them.

[@GuiSchwertner]

At what minute is the soundtest?

[@veracrack]

Hi Weiss, how do you work out the wattage of the external power source to buy? I am running two 15" top, laptop, DJ controller, external mixer, power conditioner. Running 6-10 hours each time.

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Plug the whole rig into a watt meter. www.amazon.com/Electricity-Monitor-Voltage-Overload-Protection/dp/B07DPJ3RGB/ref=sr_1_9?crid=3UZYAXLEFECJ5&keywords=watt+meter&qid=1670717295&sprefix=watt%2Caps%2C134&sr=8-9 This is what I use, it might be enough??? www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08T1KY8SG/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_9?smid=AH59O987TZWZR&psc=1 Run time depends on volume and type of music. 100dB+ will drain much faster, so will heavy bass tracks.

@@WWeiss-nv5vz brilliant. Thank you!!

[@scout1145]

Great video! Hey sir, I'm looking for 2 Bluetooth speakers to mount high in a large covered horse arena (lots of dust). Would like them to be powered, rugged, and Bluetooth so they can connect to a phone, ipod or a headset mic. Any recommendations?

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

If you need internal battery then Everse 12, if you have A/C EV ZLX-12P G2 A little louder and half the price. Not sure how dust affects any speaker? I know Bose makes an elastic cover that can be played through for the S1Pro+.Not sure if two S1Pro+ will cover a large area outside?www.bose.com/p/accessories/bose-s1-pro-playthrough-cover/CMPR-S1PROP-COVERSKIN-BLK.html

[@markerf16]

would the JBL EON710 make a great acoustic amp?

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Sound wise, yes. Probably too heavy and big for that application.

[@johnlackner1193]

Can you turn the power on and off remotely? For an install. Also, does it save the settings when you turn it off?

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

I don't think so. It has as soft press power on that has to be physically pressed. I believe it saves settings.

[@DJ_PeterSteel]

You can kill the power (when turned on) and when powered again it will turn on.

[@Goforit8866]

Hi Weiss, thank you for answering my Bose S1 pro and L1 compact combo question in other video. I got one Bose S1 pro and thinking of getting another speaker for karaoke. Do you think getting an eon 612 or a 712 is better than getting a L1 compact? I don’t take them to anywhere so portability is not really an issue. Thanks

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Only if you need more than the max113dB the Compact can put out. S1 Pro can't go over 100dB so the more powerful speaker would have to be turned down anyway. The JBLs are voiced very similar to the S1Pro so you won't be gaining much and you will still have the original problem of lack of bass. Compact will give you some of that missing bass. For the same price of the Compact I would purchase a Bose Sub1 to pair with your S1. You will then experience REAL subwoofer BASS!

[@Goforit8866]

@@WWeiss-nv5vz thanks for the quick reply. what would you recommend if I get rid of the S1 pro, and add another $600 to get home setup speakers for karaoke? Mobility is not important to me. Thanks.

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

@@Goforit8866 Not sure your total budget? Many people use a single Bose Pro8 or EV30m for Karaoke. If you are within a lower budget a single Turbosound iP300 is an excellent full range speaker which is MUCH better than the Bose S1Pro! It's only $450! Not sure if you have seen the video? kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4nEf5amg5d2g9E In the future you can add a Bose Sub1 subwoofer if bass is not enough.

Wow nice speaker.

[@sonny9546]

How does it sound against IP300 ? And when you use this speaker in bluetooth does it return bluetooth to the XLR output? (because the PRX one can do it)

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

iP300 has a noticeably better low end but if you are using a sub that advantage goes away. Playing by itself it has a more full range sound. iP300 has better dispersion at 120 degrees vs JBL 110 degrees. I can't hear the difference testing side by side in the home. Turbosound cleaner high end. JBL smoother mids, much better 8 band EQ. Both speakers = in max volume before clipping. Yes, JBL outputs Bluetooth signal through the XLR output! I think the JBL has a 7 year warranty vs 3 years for Turbosound?? A little bit more $$$ the RCF HD10 is supposed to be excellent. I don't know, never heard it.

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Confirmed with JBL, 7 year warranty On all EON series which is better than QSC's 6 year warranty!

[@TheHxcbrandon]

TWS BT streaming coming in about 1-2 months via firmware update.

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

That's great! What was the reasoning to leave reverb off the App since it is on the MK2 App? Why does the much more expensive MK2 use the less professional 1/4" Thru out instead of XLR? XLR was on the previous Eon One Pro.Also is there a 7 year warranty across the board for the Eon line?

[@TheHxcbrandon]

@@WWeiss-nv5vz 1) DSP was twice the price to add a chip capable of reverb. 2) MK2 has very little real estate on the mixer panel so a balanced TRS was the solution to “no pass thru at all”

[@TheHxcbrandon]

@@WWeiss-nv5vz anything new from EON Compact. So Compact, MK2, PRX ONE and EON700

[@MrMorinu]

Hi, Do you think 1 speaker is enough for home dj parties? Or would you go for 2 speakers in a lower price range? 500€ is what I'm willing to spend

[@bigbawsz2054]

One is more then enough for a home party. This thing gets really loud specially with a mixer

[@daveadu3563]

Hey! The QSC K12.2 vs this one? What is better?

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Hands down QSC! QSC K Series is the next level. Of course QSC is much more $$$. QSC K Series has a 2,000 watt amp and has much greater headroom and clarity at max volume. Only downside QSC has no Bluetooth App.

[@Goforit8866]

Here in Australia, 2x eon710 cost $1800, 2x DBR10 cost $1300, and one bose L1 pro 8 cost $1760. Does a single pro 8 comparable to two Yamahas in terms of rich highs and mids in a 40sqm room, or is it not even close?

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

First any of these choices will be incredible: You have to decide do you want two speakers. Two speakers gives that natural stereo effect our ears are used to. Any single column speaker like the Pro 8 will not have the true stereo effect. Even my $3,300 Pro32 benefits from a second speaker! Two speakers gives more volume but I don't think that applies to you. I don't know much about Karaoke. I'm assuming singing to backing tracks would benefit from a good low end. In that case a single JBL Eon710 over a Bose Sub1 will outperform a Bose Pro8. In the future you can get the second 710. JBL has an excellent EQ section the Yamaha and Bose lack. You can really dial in the sound you prefer. But JBL lacks the smooth mids of the Yamaha or Bose. No one speaker does it all. You have to decide what sound signature is most important to you.

@@WWeiss-nv5vz Hi Bill, will the Eon 710 vs QSC CP8 Video be coming out soon?

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

@@Goforit8866 Up next, but might be two weeks or so. I'll summarize for you: Same track, JBL710 102dB, CP8 110dB 8dB difference is twice as loud! Both same 7 year warranty. QSC older tech- no Bluetooth, no App which means no future updates. 710 is new with not much history as far as reliability, QSC is know to be bullet proof for gigging pros. You might prefer JBL because the 10" woofer will give you more of the low/mids you said you were looking for and again with the 8 band EQ you can adjust the sound to your liking/room. Both lack low end and need a sub.

[@billyfleshman7451]

Do i need a external power source or can i just Bluetooth my phone to it and play

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

For indoor play you use A/C power cable supplied. If you want to play outdoors then you need external power.

[@kingedwards99]

Jbl Eon 712 or Qsc cp12? Need one for guitar and vocals for small church and sometimes outside? Thanks

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Performance/warranty very close. I would go with QSC because of their better reliability record. Keep in mind QSC lacks any App if you need that.

[@creativespecies7032]

what speak same size with better bass for djing budget wise

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Yamaha DBR10 has a smoother midrange and slightly better bass. Less money! All of these type of speakers NEED a subwoofer if you want any bass. Yamaha is an older design with no Bluetooth App. If weight isn't a factor, for slightly more money you can look at JBL Eon712 or 715. Yamaha makes the DBR15. Check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYaZloSHqsapoKs

They also make an EON712 and EON715 if you need larger.
