Ok.Maybe a lot of you seen this but its new for me.:sqerr:

JBL make a step up and makes a new EON5 series which is much more lightweight as the old one.They made also a Sub which weight is only 29kg.
Of course its more expensive as the old one but we are used to this.
I have not hear the speakers but maybe someone of you have.Im interested in any info, so please reply youre expirience.
Thanks.:sqwink:
 
They got them at GC.

They sound about as good as the old EONS. To me that is like poop.

One of the guys at GC allready blew up one of the subs he said the protection system stinks and it does not bang even slightly.

Side by side comparision of the QSC speakers the new EON performed about as good as the new Behringer powered speakers they had on the setup wall.
 
In late December I'm going to put head to head the RCF Art 310 and the Eon 510 just for fun, although don't have any high expectations for Eons.

EON 515 is going for 1100.00 and EON 510 for 900.00 Canadian dollars.
They are not worth that much.
 
I agree that the Eons are overpriced ~ they are a plastic box. That said, you can get a decent tone out of 'em if you EQ your sound for them.

They're glorified stage wedges. Don't try to make 'em do more than they were designed to do. :)
 
Fred,
I think that all new plastic speakers are overpriced.Just have a loock at new RCF Art and i dont even want to talk about new Mackies Srm450.
New modells cost about 20-30% than old modells and they are NOT that much better(if).
