Filled A 175-person Theater as a PA Speaker; Great for Smaller Venues

This little battery-powered speaker is a great performer. Employed it to allow VIPs to address 175 people in a filled big-screen theater. Yeah, it could have been more -- a second Eon One Compact would have been great, and can be added if desired -- but everyone heard clear to the back row.

The built-in mixer, with remote controlled Bluetooth control app, takes a bit of getting used to. Once you figure it out, however, you can control master volume and individual channel gain, mic/line selection, and individual channel EQ as well as master output EQ. It's really easier to use the app than the on-board controls. The mixer recalls the settings so it's ready to go the next time if you're in the same venue.

This is not for the techless nube. You need to know what a mixer does, the difference between mic and line in, 1/4" TRS and XLR, etc, and how to install and work a Bluetooth app on your phone or iPad. The app works in horizontal mode only -- really designed for an iPod. I use my iPhone, though, with great success.

The Eon One Compact has not gone into distortion at all, ever, even running wide open.

I'm using it with really cheap (like, $60) UHF wireless mics. One system is two mics into a single receiver that has a 1/4" unbalanced hi-z output. I plugged this receiver into INPUT 1's 1/4"/XLR input, set the input to "mic" and adjusted the gain and EQ. Clean, clear sound.

I plugged a second mic receiver into INPUT 2. Now I have three wireless mics going into two inputs, both set to MIC with individual gain and EQ control.

Since I'm using the Eon One Compact for PA voice, I've rolled off the bass and bumped the treble. Have not attached instruments like a guitar to it. Have not run Bluetooth music through it yet either. I'm sure it'll be fine.

Seems the speaker needs to be turned on for the speaker's battery to charge. The battery is large -- 14.8VDC at 90.28 Watt-hours. Beefy! It's also removable if you want to have a charged spare. Spare batteries are out of stock but this one is good for like 12 hours.

The digital mixer takes a few seconds to turn on: press the ON/OFF button for two seconds and wait for about three seconds. It'll turn on, eventually. To turn the unit off, hold the ON/OFF button for about 5 seconds. The controls light up on the speaker for low light use, but the app is definitely a better way for control.

The flush carry handle on top is strong and convenient. The 1-3/8" speaker stand socket on the bottom allows easy mounting to standard tripod speaker stands.

The speaker itself is small, with its 8" driver. It's a bit heavy, because it's got real amps and components in it, Still, it's easy to transport.

I bought the slipcover for it to protect from scratches and dents during transport. The slipcover has no storage pockets. It's designed to offer protection for outdoor use if it rains, I think. But it slips over the Eon One Compact snugly and keeps the speaker like new.

I carry the speaker around in an old rolling soft luggage case -- the size that fits in airline overhead compartments, that has wheels, a retractable handle and can expand via a zipper to get thicker. I can jam my mics in there too.

The outer pocket of the luggage allows me to carry a 5-foot tripod in a single case.

So far, could not be happier. Totally pro unit.

Perfect fit and Addition for cable Free Setup

I bought this to use as a monitor for a dual EON One Pro setup. My setups incorporate a large diaphragm condenser mic for bluegrass/ ole timey jams, so I need phantom power. I got to use it the other night for a monthly jam and everyone, including myself, was impressed. Having the addition of a monitor in the fully battery powered solution was perfect, helping to make the performance of everyone better overall. It's also great to have a more mobile solution for when the opportunity allows for it. So many new doors have been opened! Will likely buy two more as floor speakers.

JBL EON One - Beyond Belief

This is the most outstanding PA speaker ever. I have over 50 years experience trying to get a sound system to work in a small venue and JBL comes with this 14 pound speaker with a audio mixer built in and it runs on a battery! This is incredible to me. The sound quality is terrific and the output volume is unenviable for the size of the unit and you can run it from your iphone, etc...I give this one a five star PLUS. Gook Job - JBL...

This is great system for solo or duet acts!

This portable battery powered unit has allowed me to play on street corners, parking lots parks & open empty fields where no power is available! It is light weight, compact & powerful! My only dis is that this comes with no operational instructions! The information I can find online isn't very helpful, so it has been difficult to set it up properly to maximize it potential. But, you cannot go wrong with this unit! I love it! You will too!
Music background: Guitar, Bass & Vocals ad a solo, duet & a variety of bands since the mid 60's.
