JBL has drawn from over 60 years of world-class speaker design to develop the latest durable lightweight technologies. In addition to the legendary performance of JBL transducers, the new EON series incorporates special limiter circuitry that will protect the electronic components when driven hard, rigorously tested by the world-famous 100-hour torture test. Covered by a full metal grille with protective backing fitted to a robust composite shell, you can assure EON will stand up to the rigors of road abuse and deliver the performance you need. Every time.
In addition to acoustic performance the EON515 features three full size deep-well handles, light weight, and balanced ergonomics. The new generation of EON products offers true portability and ease of handling. Five standard M10 rigging points and integrated pole mount socket increase the system's utility. The extremely rugged copolymer enclosure has been designed for main and 45° monitor orientation in the left and right hand configuration. A full screen-backed steel grille offers additional protection for both the woofer and compression driver components.
POWERED
High Quality Drivers
Tour sound DNA comes directly from industry-leading VERTEC® systems in the form of JBL's exclusive Differential Drive® technology, to ensure EON has more power and less weight. These patented low-frequency drivers use neodymium magnets and dual voice coils to perform better than conventional designs with less distortion and at a fraction of the weight. JBL's next generation neodymium compression drivers deliver stunningly accurate high frequencies through a new 1" exit design.
Built-in Mixers
The innovative built-in 3 channel mixer all but eliminates the need for additional mixing components and is one of the keys to the EON's unmatched popularity. The 500 series simple, effective and professional plug-and-play architecture appeals to any artist that has to set up quickly and deliver professional sound in a hurry. Line level and direct microphone input capability, preset EQ settings for vocals, instruments and speech, plus a clever mix/loop function for adding additional EONs or sending submixes, ensure the 500 series delivers unmatched simplicity coupled with plenty of expansion capability.
Coverage
JBL is constantly advancing waveguide technology to ensure that consistent, balanced sound reaches all of your audience clearly and intelligibly. The Next Generation EON features a new 100º H x 60º V asymmetrical design guaranteeing an exceptionally wide coverage pattern and lower distortion.

I have worked with various self powered speaker enclosures over the years from 8", 10" 12", 15", and 18" powered sub-woofers. All of these speakers work well but I find the JBL EON series to have the best overall performance and looks. These boxes can put out a punch...more than expected. The EON's have built in limiter to prevent you from killing the drivers. I've never heard distortion from an EON. I especially like the new looks of the series 3 EON's. I've grown tired of the round woofer and rectangular tweeter design that so many copy. They look cool for the techno-geeks the the average listener doesn't care about how a speaker looks. The new design is less conspicuous and blends in with the surroundings than the older designs. I plan on buying many more EON's for my systems. An unexpected feature is the JBL logo on the front of the box lights (or can be turned off). I've found this helpful in making sure the speaker is powered...where in my case a circuit breaker tripped and... Read more

While I haven't used these in a LARGE/Loud gig yet, they seem to have more than enough guts for a bar with 4-6 pc blues/rock band like mine. Very quick set up as amps are built in but does add extra power cords to run to speakers, so overall similar amount of cords. I love less stuff to pack and these are very light compared to my older EV 15" with horns and traditional wood cabinet without an Amp. LOVE them for practice & playing out with my keyboard. Makes it sound like a real grand piano.
