JBL Professional Introduces EON700 Series Portable PA Loudspeakers and Subwoofer With Bluetooth Harman Professional Solutions introduces the EON700 Series portable PA loudspeakers and subwoofer with Bluetooth. Launched in 1995, JBL's best-selling EON family of PAs set the benchmark for how great a powered loudspeaker system can be. The EON700 Series represents a major step forward in innovation and technology, the company says, by delivering truly intelligible, clearly consistent coverage at any volume level. JBL engineers used exclusive, state-of-the-art design and measurement techniques to deliver the best-performing loudspeakers in their category, regardless of application. EON700 leverages the latest acoustic science, transducer designs, cabinet materials, and advanced DSP, amplification and control technologies and extraordinary performance in a fully professional, highly flexible, easy to use, portable system. With four models available, including the 10" EON710, the 12" EON712 and the 15" EON715 powered PA speakers and the 18" EON718S subwoofer, EON700 systems cover the needs of today's working musicians and sound providers. These flexible systems are designed to effortlessly scale with customers' needs, from DJ performances and full bands to solo singer/songwriter gigs, presentations and worship events. Configure speakers as mains or stage monitors, hung or stacked, in portable systems or permanent installations -- the opportunities are endless, the company says. Dial in optimal system sound in an instant using a built-in 3-channel mixer and dbx DriveRack Inside technology, featuring Automatic Feedback Suppression, 8-band output EQ and optimized use-case presets. Access functions quickly and easily via an onboard backlit color LCD screen or take control from anywhere using the JBL Pro Connect app. Bluetooth 5.0 streaming and control, mounting options and built-in speaker delay bring even more versatility to these rugged, reliable systems. "The EON700 Series truly represents the next generation of portable PA systems," says Brandon Knudsen, Harman Professional product manager, Portable PA Loudspeakers. "When we started designing these new PAs, we looked at our best-selling EON Series and made that core technology even better by upgrading drivers and amplifiers, refining waveguides, supercharging the effects package, and incorporating the most up-to-date Bluetooth protocol and universal app control. The result is a powerful, versatile system that sounds incredible at any volume, anywhere in the room. "We've made it even easier than ever for performers to sound their best without having to rely on outboard gear, thanks to built-in advanced dbx DSP and presets that are optimized for a range of scenarios. And the series' incredible power-to-size ratio and low weight mean a faster, lighter load-in, which we can all appreciate." JBL's advanced waveguide and transducer technologies, coupled with highly efficient amplification, ensure uniform coverage across the entire listening area, even when you push the system to the limit. Woofers are redesigned for lower impedance and higher efficiency, an improved horn delivers a smooth off-axis beamwidth and JBL's powerful 2414H compression driver features a premium neodymium magnet for balanced response in a lightweight footprint. Speakers are powered by 1,300 (loudspeakers) or 1,500 (subwoofer) watts of ultra-efficient discrete Class D amplification, for clean, clear sound. It all adds up to superior coverage, consistency, and intelligibility at any volume. EON700's advanced DSP package provides comprehensive control over EQ, limiters, delay, dbx Automatic Feedback Suppression, ducking and other speaker functions. Access settings on-speaker via an integrated backlit LCD screen, or from anywhere in the venue using the JBL Pro Connect App. Built-in Bluetooth 5.0 audio streaming (full-range speakers) and control take advantage of the newest protocol's security features, low latency, broad range and improved audio fidelity. EON700 loudspeakers can be used as main PA speakers or floor monitors. Full-range models feature top and rear suspension points for flying speakers; rear suspension points serve as connections for fixed installations, using an optional universal yoke mount. Indexed feet molded into enclosures enable a range of acoustic configurations and secure stacking for traditional stand-up configurations and convenient storage and transport. EON718S subwoofers feature a threaded pole mount for full-range speakers and are easily stacked for cardioid configurations. All audio products have useful lives, and JBL engineers are committed to making that lifespan as long as possible -- not only in terms of reliability, but in terms of how good the system sounds every time it's turned on, the company says. Full-range speakers feature FEA optimized composite enclosures, taking advantage of injection-molding and mechanical-shaping techniques for added durability without sacrificing cabinet size or performance. Subwoofers are housed in rugged 15-ply birch enclosures; computer-optimized ergonomic handles make moving boxes a breeze. Every JBL Professional product undergoes stringent testing that goes above and beyond any conditions the product would face in the real world. Our industry-leading 100-hour power test ensures longevity so musicians and audio engineers can rely on JBL components in any scenario.
