I also have the JBL PRX715-XLF's and the JBL PRX712's and think they are a great mobile wedding DJ setup. Lighter, look good, build better than QSC and wayyy cheaper in price than any QSC.
dude! you have evolved a lot I've watched a lot of your videos you look green in this one.
just a bit though. congrats!!!!!!!!!
Great videos! I love how honest you are, I really can't stand reviews by people that sound like they are reading off a script haha.
+Aeodi Graphics only script is the specs. Its actually hard trying to describe
+Aeodi Graphics thanks. Only script is specs. Lol. I never use scripts. I have to do so many re takes of what to say tho. Lol
perfect review bro !!
Two 15's will out perform a single 18. Most single 18s are heavy and take two people to carry and move around especially if there are steps. It's best to not setup the subs on poles on both sides of the DJ. If you do this you will get dead spots for bass on the dancefloor. Put a single sub or couple both subs in front of the dancefloor for a nice even sound without dead areas on the dancefloor.
I do agree with what he is saying about 18 inch subs being better. The choice of going with 15s should be based on you having a lack of space in your vehicle or a lack of a roadie to help you move your big subs. For hip hop I like to run four 18 subs with two tops. Two double 18 subs would also be good.
No, it depends on what box they are. But if we are talking about 2 715 vs 1 718. The 715 will outperform the 18 in the 50-80hz range. Below, the 18 will win
Well said. Good job dude.
Great video bro
Thanks for honest review! I play in a 70's classic rock band and I'm thinking of getting this to expand the sound system. Have you ever used them to live mix a band? If so how did they perform.
+Greg Biolsi I used it for live sound once for the company I work for as a monitor for a drummer. The drummer loved it and said it was porbably the best sounding sub he had ever heard. This sub does a great job of replicating kick bass found in most bands.
+DJ Rick Web thanks, I'm sold..
+Greg Biolsi good to hear. Let me know what you think of them when you get them
JBL PRX715XLF are Awesome. Great review. 56lbs no other sub can compare in my opinion.
Be good to see compare to new rcf 705asii!
+Mobile Disco Wirral Yeah I Would like to know that as well.
+djhammer00 i have one aswell its hard one as dont understand what soft limiter means?
Sounds nice even through headphones on CZcams
Great video man. I recently got myself some of these speakers, but how do you take them off stand mode once it happens? It happened to me and i played a track but it didn't play and it stayed in standby
+Victor Arias they automatically switch between standby and live mode. You have to be sending a decent signal to the subwoofers. Check the signial light on the back next time when your playing your track and they dont jump off standby. The signal light must be green for them to go live.
Thank you
great job bro. I saw these used and considering buying them. How are they working for you? They do sound good from my MAC.
I like the form factor. Good output not big and bulky
Yeah, I have (2) Behringer B1200d for now, mainly because I couldn't find anything light enough to move around. They are less than 45 lbs. but I live your review and agreed, 18s will give you the best but I have no desire to haul 18s. Just to much, and I haven't done 300+ gigs yet. I have been doing 75 to 150 so far. I also agree with coupling the speakers but it's so convenient to use the sticks.
Hey man! Hope you see this comment. I was wondering where you got that screen you place in front of your table (there is a good shot of it at 0:59). I think it looks really professional and would love to add one to my set up! Thanks!
That's actually my homemade facade. But you can buy the ADJ event facade it is very similar.
Thanks! You should make a tutorial on how to make one!
Hi Rick, nice vdeo on this sub. Ive had my eye on this sub for a few years now and finally picked one up 2 days ago. I havent taken it out yet in a big room and was only able to test it in my kitchen. I love the size and weight and also seems to be built well. Can the clip light flash for a while without it shutting down?
+DJ-RALPHY yes sir. I run mine normally with the limit lite bouncing to the beat. Its perfectly normal and fine to have your clip/limit ligjg flash/bouce to the beat. Check out my how to set up powered speakers video for more detail on that
DJ Rick Web Thanks for the reply Rick. My name is DJ Ralphy from Chicago. I was a little concerned whem I seen the limit light come on. Im planning on getting a second sub soon. I have to say it even looks sexy. they almost match my EV ELX112P. How do you know when you have reached a full limit point?
+DJ-RALPHY the limit light indicates the max amp power is pushing. The safe max is a limit light flashing on the bass hits basically. Or in other terms bouncing to the same beat you would be tapping you foot to the bpm. Any time the light stays on solid for more then 2 seconds I would say back off the gain. To be honest JBL put a lot of backup into these subs and speakers. I was at an outdoor hot gig and one of the 15 subs shut off on me at some point. Checked the other it was pushing way to hard. Sub shut its self off to protect it. Next day work just like new again.
DJ Rick Web Thanks Rick for all your info. keep up the good work on those gigs.
thanks for the vid. i say 18s all day with 15 tops. but i understand why you got it. but what i will say is that your vid seemed a little contradictory bc in the beginning you were saying that the 15s were about the same as 18s and i was like no wtf is he talking about... but then toward the end u sounded on the same page i was on.
It was hard trying to express how this is such a superior 15 inch sub. the size to output is incredible. but at the end of the day it isnt an 18. Its a completely different sound.
Do you recommend the speakers JBL Eon 615? I want to buy four without subwoofers just the speakers. Will they over heat when using them full range for about 6 hours?
Yes but no. The eon is pretty dated at this point and better lower end speakers exist. See my top 5 beginner speaker video.
@@DJRickWeb thank you. I watch your videos from Albuquerque
I have the two 10" QSC Speakers. Will that make a lot of difference with just one of this SUB since the QSC's speakers have the deep bass option to boost the bass on the speakers as well. for about 200 people?
+Kay Bee 1 will not give you boomkng bass it will more or less just fill in the bass
+Kay Bee 1 will not give you boomkng bass it will more or less just fill in the bass
how do these (or the 815xlf) compare with an rcf 705asii. i am assuming they are comparable?
Sort of. RCF has the edge though
Whats your opinion on an Eon 618s vs a Mackie SRM1550? The Mackie's are 1200watts and have a peak spl of 131db. The JBLs are 1000watts and have a peak spl of 134db....right now I have 12" mains at 500watts.
Recently the Mackie 15s went on sale at MF for %50 off....do you think I should wait and get an 18? I'll only get one sub right now, but I'll probably get another one in the future.
+Ben H. Havent heard either of them in person so cant say.
Dj Rick Web Its cool bro, thanks for the response anyway. Considering that I'm only getting one sub, should I opt for an 18" over a 15"? Or does it really matter that much, considering my mains are only 500watts each?
+Ben H. Personal prefrence really. 18s go lower in freq. 15s are more punchy bass
What are your thoughts on the 618 Xlf? And not using crown on the 718?
Louder ? Or no difference
Prefer 618 but not much difference other than weight on the 718 being more
@@DJRickWeb why do u prefer the 618 xlf? Over the 718xlf?
So the 618 xlf is louder ? In your opinion slightly
Hey, how have the speakers held up. I'm looking to get a pair for smaller venues when I don't want lug 18s
+Eric Pass had them for a year now still punching. And I normally run them at or on the edge of the limit every gig. I like bass. lol. Used them for at least 40 gigs now. I like them more then my prx 618 xlfs sound and size. More punchy bass less rumbling bass.
+DJ Rick Web ok cool about to order them now.
+Eric Pass You wont be disappointed there my favorite purchase I ever made along with my mixer and prx 712s.

Thank's for your review ! Just started on partying and I have one PRX 715 XLF... Can you tell me on how many people one of these guy can be good enough for ? I don't really have plans for another one ! Thank's again !
One 715 xlf should put out enough bass for 100-200 people. I am a bass junky so I use 2 for 150 plus, but I get complaints about my bass about every other wedding from older people in the room so 1 should be fine to use for 200 maybe 250 max.
Thank's for your straightforward answer... Now it's clear that one 715 xlf is enough for me !
What is your opinion on the QSC k12 or the Jbl prx912 & QSC k11 or a 😊
Qsc ks118
Jbl prx 812 over 912. And jbl prx818. Top picks
@@DJRickWeb are the QSC k12 better than the PRs or Srx 12 inch 2 way & what do you think of the QSC k118 looking to buy new gear
Jbl srx is best. Prx second. Qsc last
Can you connect two top speakers to one sub?
Yes
@@DJRickWeb How? Both outputs from mixer into Sub then from sub into both speakers?
I have a chance to get these for $900 used, do they knock?? It seems like a deal.
+djilyaz they hit pretty hard for a 15
cool gonna pick em up tomorrow
you da man
+djilyaz let me know what you think when you get them
Anyone 2020?? does anyone know the song at 8:34??
I wonder what it would be like if you add two more subs and two more of the eons? lol... I don't know anything about speakers and such... But in a city night club, a typical city night club, would the audience FEEL the music, the base without distortion with the current of two subs and the eons? Learning.. Learning..
+the man the myth probably need more the 2 subs and 2 eons in a club. Think more like 4 subs and 4 prx speakers
would you recommend mixing them up? Like if you have eons already... and wanted to add prxs
+the man the myth thats exactly what I did. I used prx subs with the eon tops for a whole year. Then got prx tops. Honeslty though when doing that the eons could never match the output level of the prx subs. But once I got the tops it was perfect match.
how about recording studio playback?
Dont buy a DJ speaker for a recording setup
@@DJRickWeb im talking about a bass bottom not a whole set ...
Still really not ment for a sudio. The sub is designed to push a lot of air in big open air environments. Not for nice quality accurate bass response expected in a studio environment
@@DJRickWeb got you thx
jbl prx 615m vs 715? I heard 615 r better, but not sure.
Yes it is
+HoodiesMusic bass output yes. High mid clarity 715 wins.
Hi! I love your videos... I have a band with me myself and my guitar.... and my kick bass pedal...ahaha... im looking for a full kit... do you think that 2 prx812 and one prx815xlf can be a good one... or should I put 1000 more bucks for the EV etx12p with one etx15sp sub... was also lookin for QSC K12.2 and a Ksub... or the yorkville elite series.... it is for performing first... but i'm gonna use them for music sometimes... hope you'll answer me ... im a french canadian so sorry for my english skills.. ahaha
Band wise the JBL will have a flatter sound better for live music. EV is more of a smiley face curve which is better for DJs. QSC is not worth the price personally. Overall though I would get 2 subs. One 15 inch sub will not be able to keep up with 2 12inch tops. Output wise the pro should be plenty for up to 200 maybe 250 people
thank you for your answer :)
Good subs but replace EON's to PRX715 - they sounds much better.
got a video coming out within the next 2 weeks. i bought prx712s to replace the eons!
+Pokemon7294
tbh i dont think he really needs the prx, the subs take the hard work out of the eons so they sound quite. nice.
a pair of eons is like the price of one prx.
+ricky weber how are they doing? Is tweeter not as harsh?
+Mobile Disco Wirral to which speakers are you reffering too?
+ricky weber the new rcf sub 705 as ii, i have got one, can you notice big difference with 2 subs?
nice! you just throw your money!
+Jorge Ardon Don't know what you imply by that. But everything I buy is bought with money earned through DJing and everything is and has been payed off.
+DJ Rick Web should buy the hi end jbl srx series dont go for prx715 or 712 those speakers blow quick and insurance sucks.
before i have a prx715 blown and send it to repair it came back and 1 minute later stop working so i get rid of them i would not recommend PRX
+Jorge Ardon the LLC I get contracted to do gigs with is a JBL dealer. If I ever have issues get replacements or getting them fixed is a snap. And I do have end plans to get SRX gear in coming years. But I own prx 618xlfs, 715 xlfs, 712s, and eon 615s now. And havent had any issues yet.
