JBL EON ONE Compact - All in One Rechargeable Personal PA System

Easy to use, and high quality sound. Jbl is App available to download to set up effect and audio settings. I use it to play acoustic guitar as well as electric guitars. And microphone. Good value. 12 hours rechargeable batteries. Look no farther than this speaker.

I sing on a regular basis in care homes (currently outside and in care home pods) due to Covid. I needed something that was battery powered so that I didn’t need to plug into the care homes electrics. I previously tried the Bose s1 and found that every time I went near it , it had constant feedback and was very toppy. I sent it back after two uses. I have to say that this is so much better than the s1. A really nice, clear sound, no feedback when going near it. Even on full volume, the sound is nice and clear and very easy to control using the side panel. The reverb is excellent and the Bluetooth connects straight away as soon as I switch on my laptop. I haven’t used the app as I didn’t want to mess the settings up but am happy with how the settings are so will probably just leave it as it is. The only negative that I could possibly say is that it didn’t come with a cover and for the price, would’ve been a nice added extra. If you are debating between this and the s1, I would highly recommend this for smaller rooms , especially if you need to stand right next to it. * one other negative I’ve decided on is the fact that I can’t just press reverb on and off, but still very happy with it ** new update- am disappointed with this when using outside. The sound is completely lost, no good for outside gigs, having to use with an array to get any proper sound. Wishing I’d bought something bigger

Pros: The sound quality is superb Solid build and feel of quality Portable Visuals/aesthetic design Volume Portability Versatility of use (as an amp, speaker, public address) Weight Cons: None. I've been very pleased with this system and have found it versatile and fun. The sounds is great, both deep and bassy and with great battery life. The app is great but also a gimmick for the most part, as with most products that incorporate apps these days. That said the app is capable and connection a breeze, so make of it what you wish. It's great for the price point and can't be faulted. Better products are available but also at higher price points... Buy it for music, fun, open spaces, parties, as an address system and anything else that floats your boat or your list of requirements. You won't be dissapointed.

Fantastic amp for remote gigs. Power cut can't stop the fun as it doesn't need mains and hog dam it can blast out crisp sound in a packed bear garden.

Great bit of kit. Allows simple, lightweight set up options for average indoor/outdoor sized gigs without having to worry about a power source. Battery life lasts all day with just 2.5 hours charging time. Has 4 mixer inputs that beats its Bose S1 rival. Good for me as use keyboard, guitar and vocals, so S1 would not not work. The mixer app is brilliant on so many levels (pardon the pun) that I won't do into here. Harsh giving 4 stars for sound quality but I think the S1 'just' has the edge there. Also if using it to listen to music streaming through bluetooth function it can struggle with the mixing of stereo recordings, particularly early recordings. George Harrison would not have been happy with how Taxman sounds off Revolver! Having said that, you would be buying a different product if listing to music was your sole reason for purchase and, as I said, this is great for gigging. 2 MONTH UPDATE Unfortunately started having battery issues (not charging). Got a replacement but had same problem. Decided to go for the slightly more expensive Roland BA330 which is amazing.

What I liked: Great build quality Pushes a lot of SPL for size & weight. Extensive EQ Options Great portability Amazing battery life (Over 6 hours at absolute Max Volume) - 12 Hours at moderately loud volumes Decent bass extension for a full range speaker of this size Nit Picks: Not a fan of the LED indicator around the encoders, they are far too wide and it's hard to discern meaningful info regarding levels Advertised frequency response is misleading (37.5hz) - I did a Frequency sweep at flat EQ which showed usable response from about 50hz upwards. Sound quality not as accurate and nuanced as other PAs I have owned but is better than average for sure. App seems to take a while (over 10 seconds maybe) to Link with the speaker before you can begin to change settings.

I did an awful lot of research on line array systems before I bought this product. Took about 3 months to finally point my radar to this one. I'm a solo pub and club singer and I use this for small to medium size venues. What amazed me the most was how full and balanced the sound was that this system generated. Literally jaw dropping, especially the mids. Normally takes a bit of twerking to dial in the mids properly but the clarity shone through from the first time I used this. The base is typical of JBL, strong and a good thump but not boomy like a lot of subs I've heard. The performance factor of this far out ways the price point. I've heard many systems with far bigger price points not match this. In a word sensational. More than impressed and what's more my audiences have nothing but praise for my sound which always brings a smile. In my experience, if they take the extra time to notice it's quality then it's money well spent. The only gripe I have is the weight. Its not light, 40lb is a stretch for some. However it's better than lugging separate speakers, stands and subs. I can finally have the back seat of my car free when I go to a gig. So all in all a fantastic product. Still early days and twerking the sound perfect but from the impression it has left from the first few gigs a total win. Worthy of most venues in my opinion and 1 is more than adequate. Well done JBL!

Perfect for house party. Battery backup gives you more valuable. Perfect sound. Mic connection, bluetooth, aux everything is there. Superb build quality and and best sound quality Value for money. If your budget allows you will not regret after buying this.

It has been used for retreats among other things mostly in rooms that are 200 square metres in size and it covers it without much hassle so far that is all i used it for. the battery is the best part all me to run the speakers without burdening the generator . love the P.A system

Great product and equally fantastic seller. Thank you Mr.Amaninder ji . The music system sounds outstanding with deep thick bass and amazing mids and treble. Played it at a venue for live music. 2000sq ft indoors...packed with people. Yet the JBL covered all areas with ease and it's design and engineering. The seller is just too good a guy. Super helpful and a thorough professional. Kudos to JBL and the seller. Amazon delivered right on time. Packing was superb. Highly recommend. Thanks!

Very high quality product

Awesome, but not perfect. The good: light, compact, everything is in the box (you can even keep the XLR cables inside!), no more freaking stand to carry around, no more heavy PRX or K12 to lift up to the pole, no more XLR/Power cables to run around the stand and try to make it look nice with Velcro (+ you are saving 6' of cable right of the bat!), basic (but functional) mixer included, sounds GREAT, makes you look like the uber cool DJ at the weddings and proms with the kids. MUCH cheaper than the Bose for 80% of the same. The not so good: not as powerful as the PRX715 (~115db vs. ~135db), you'll still need a 18" sub for a large crowd (only 10" instead of 15" in the PRX715). VERY stiff spacers. I nearly end up at ER the first time I tried to pull them out (be careful!). I fixed that by adding a bit of lubricant on all the edges and now all the spacers fit super smoothly in and out. In conclusion, not the magic bullet; but a great alternative to the usual big box PAs on stands; just not as loud but much better looking. So you still need to keep both systems in your garage, and bring the right tool to the right job! I added some pictures, you can just about see the two posts in the photos. They look so cool. And no problem handling a crowd of 150 kids at a prom. If you can't get good sound out of these, you're doing something wrong. Ask any questions in the comments! Update June 25. Match made in heaven with the bose F1 sub. Dial down the bass on the eon one so you can cranck them louder. A killer combo for weddings 75-150 guests. Rumbling basses and crystal clear highs. Plus it looks amazing, smart, slick and so premium. Trust me you'll have guests asking you about it. More pictures below. Notice the F1 sub. I'm so happy about this combo. Light, slick, crystal clear, at a fraction of the price of the Bose L series. Don't believe the poor reviews here and elsewhere. JBL engineers know what they are doing, and if you can't get amazing quality sound out of them, you're doing something wrong. Contact me and I'll give you a tutorial. Update July 18. Just did a wedding at the local country club. In the middle of the night, the CC manager came to ask me to turn the music down because some club members across the whole building were complaining that the music and especially the bass was too loud. Best compliment ever. UPDATE MAY 05/2018! One year later, where are we at? Are you still on the fence? Get a pair already. I still use mine on a weekly basis, outside, inside, weddings, social gathering, graduation parties, you name it. They have been cranking out music at full volume, without fail, for the last year or so. Are you curious about others leaving bad/poor reviews? I guarantee that 100% of these reviews are either trolls, or people who bought this thinking it was something that it is not, or don't know how to use it properly, or think we live in a magic world where a 375watt speaker should sound like a 2000watt 15" PRX. It does not. Understand what you are buying before leaving a bad review. What i have learned: -The good that i love: they still sound amazing. They are still compact and light. They don't need an ugly post. Guests still come and compliment me on the quality of the sound at every event. The guests are still looking around trying to find "where that amazing sound is coming from" and can't believe they come out of these little guys. They basically look like you are a DJ above the cheap chinese Beringher (whatever you spell that) cheesy DJ, and i love that. If look is important to your business, they will add something premium to your offering. -The not so good that shows that physics of acoustic have limits: they are perfect for outside casual music/PA (think wedding ceremony, bbq, grad parties,...) but you will need a sub to make them shine. Don't try and DJ a large crowd with RnB/POP with these, it will not work. Pair them with a BOSE F1 for example, and they will sound majestic. Basically, don't expect the impossible out of a 375watt speaker... Here is how i have them set-up (see photo below): "Mixer/controller" TO "dbx-GoRACK" TO "BOSE-F1 sub" TO "EON-left and EON-right" (all using balanced XLR; in that order). If you are not getting good sound out of these speakers, you are doing something wrong or stupid (like connecting a mic on a Line level input, or using bluetooth, or using cheap RCA's connectors. -The stuff that i really hate and that's completely unnecessary: the silly "feet" at the front of the speaker is stupid, has no purpose, and makes the speaker awkward to fit in your car. Why oh why. Can i chop it off? please JBL can you make those removable in the coming MKII? Zero use, 100% inconvenience, total waste of space. At least if these feet made the speakers "stack-able" i could see a point, but no, they literally have zero purpose other than knocking things off in your car as you try and fit them around other things.. I still can't comment on the quality of the on-board mixer, as i NEVER use it. I use a Pioneer controled (DDJ-SZ) or a Yamaha mixer. I don't like having multiple plugs and XLRs going to my speakers, I like to keep things clean. So i have one XLR going from my Pioneer to line-1 of the EON, and that's it. I control everything from my Pioneer or my Yamaha. Check out the additional photos that i have added. Full disclosure: I am NOT affiliated with JBL in any way. I've been DJing for 25 years, and learn how to use a piece of equipment at its best before leaving a review.
