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.
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 MixersThe 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.
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.
