JBL Eon 500 series 18" Subwoofer Vid 2

A short tutorial how to run your xlrs to your sub and speakers. A very fast and simple hookup. I'm a JBL Eon guy, so when I saw these come out, I had to get them. I don't know if anyone remembers the G2 15" plastic cab sub that came out a few years ago, this is a vast improvement for the JBL EON series.
This is a wooden sub so the bass sounds alot better and carries more. Check out Vid 3

Does every subwoofer have a XLR input?

[DJCD01]

@DJBRISK1

Majority of the powered subwoofers have xlr or xlr and 1/4".

XLR/mic cables are suppose to be standard.

[DJBRISK1]

Can you do it the other way?

For example, Mixer to speaker, and then speaker to subwoofer.

@DJBRISK1

Well from mixer to sub then to speaker.. takes all the low end out of the speakers so that you have more power to play louder. I don't recommend doing it the other way. It may lead to less favorable results. Its better to go through the sub first and daisy chain from the sub/subs to other speakers

@DJCD01 Alright thanks but, what if your mixer only has RCA inputs?

[DJCD01]

@DJBRISK1

You can get a rca to xlr chord converter. Or any DJ shop can make you one if you can't find one. I did a convert on the back of my DJ case to xlr .. so I will always have a hard hookup directly to the case instead of worring with conversion chords. They can do that as well if you have one near you that works on DJ equipment.

I realized that after my first post. I took both the EON and PRX and put them side by side and listened to them. The PRX sounds a little more smooth and clean. It can be EQ'd out though. What threw me off was that the EON didn't have Crown labeled anywhere on it. But it's all under Harman so it's pretty much all the same.

@InuYashaFreak64 I'm looking at the brochure right here. It specifically says the EON 500 series has the Crown amplifiers in it.

@DJCD01 Can you make a video? That would be very helpful but, if you can't it's all good.
