Jbl eon 718

Son un buen complemento para las 715 un bajo muy profundo me gustaria que fueran un poco mas punchy pero para lo que yo las uso suenan muy bien las tengo en mi basamant y mi casa tiembla

New Subwoofers

Great speakers! Overall sound for our church services is much improved. We can actually hear the bass! We were able to relocate them, which alleviated some feedback issues too.
We have received many positive comments from service attenders.

I am not a big fan of active speakers but...

If you buy a good power amp, you need make no other purchase for your lifetime in powering passive speakers. However, active speakers, you never know exactly what amp is in the box, unless you pay a lot for the active speaker. So, I am not a big fan. However, I found that I really liked these subs especially after completing a laundry list before first use.

1. Get the JBL Connect app and run the Firmware Update
2. Check out some YouTubes about crossovers for Subwoofers
3. Check out some YouTubes on EQ

Once all that is completed, then, give these a test drive.

I have made a couple of YouTubes of my experience with these subs, such as their "punch" and frequency response, as well as, loudness, when skillfully placed in the mix. My demo of how to configure the subs with the app has the incorrect crossover (which I noticed at a gig). Once I fixed the erroneous crossover (my bad), all was right in the universe.

1500w is the peak so the RMS would be 750W. Something you may experience per side with a Crown XLS2500, but I have no idea what amp is in this box.

If you are a DJ, and want a sub that is plug-and-pray (yes, pray), this sub may not wow you, the ELX200 might, even though it is 1200 watts.

After I updated the firmware, set the crossover and EQ, I love these subs, and so does my band. It shook the pictures off my wall (literally) in the home, and cleared the leaves off of the metal roof at one of our gigs.

I have no buyer's remorse after this purchase of 2 of these.

The only scary thing is the motherboard and amp inside. Time will tell whether I am an active speaker convert.
Music background: Quality Experienced and Busy Cover Band. Lots of time being ignored on stage.
