    Great review I seen the Rick Web video and everyone is entitled to their opinion and position on any issue. I felt like if the companies put these speakers out for sale they had a particular market and design use for this setup. You hit it dead on the head because Rick was trying to make these array speakers his main go to Gig setup for Cost and portability and it smacked him in the face when facing a large venue and crowd. I'm not bashing Rick but sometimes we jump to quick for equipment to be the first out the box and I been in this game over 30 years and the same companies exist then and now so they have not got this far by not having a great R&D program. Again another great vlog love the passion and delivery what all DJ's should come with first!!💯

    It's crazy how the price for these have jumped. I just purchased one and it cost $1200 now. Other similar speakers from LD have also jumped in price as well. I do love the J8 though. I'll be getting a second one real soon.

  • @jonnygarner1575
    @jonnygarner1575 Před 2 lety

    Thanks for the video. I have the EV 50's and love them (other than the price tag). I found that not having the ability to rise and turn the tops makes them hard to use for karaoke bar gigs (singers stand in front and use them as monitor and wonder why they keep getting feedback). If I had to do it over I would go with the RCF instead, having the option to raise and turn would be great. I just started using a pair of QSC K8 and use the evolve subs (off my booth) when I break from singers and doing a dance set.
    I wish EV would give you the option to purchase a taller "stick".

  • @RoccoMPify

    Great job on the review. I am trying to decide between the J8 and Bose F1 pro 8. I will only use this in an environment of about a 1000 sq. ft mostly for karaoke and music. Can I use the J8 alone (not JMIX8) with a Yamaha mixer (MG10XU)? Do you have an opinion on the J8 vs the F1 pro 8 as far as sound goes? THanx!

    Thank you so much for this video, it is very helpful. I am still debating on the evolve 50's or the J8. Are you still pretty happy with these a year later? Are you glad you got the white instead of black?

    • @DJLoStax
      @DJLoStax  Před 3 lety +2

      Very happy. I do think while the white looks amazing it is limiting and tough to keep clean. Black would fit just about any event while the white can look a little out of place sometimes

    I have 4 of the EV50's in white and two of the JBL ENO Pro and I love them all. Im 6'1" and my EV50's top is over my head so they work great for me just like I'm sure your EVOX 8 are great for you. The JBL ENO are only for ceremonies and cocktail hours there's no way I would try using them for reception party but I do love them. I do love the EV50's looks (no cables)and sound over the Evox8 when turned up but that's my opinion. Great video and good column Array don't suck not sure what was going on with DJ Rick

    • @DJLoStax
      @DJLoStax  Před 4 lety

      I love my JBL eon one pro for ceremony. It’s made my life so much easier. If i wasn’t already an RCF fan boy and these wouldn’t have been so much cheaper than the Evolves I probably would have gone that route too. Rick was definitely not saying all column arrays suck. He was just saying there is a time and a place for them.

    Now I know that this video was posted about a year ago, and in it you state that the J8 sells for $800. I’d like to know where or send me a link to where I can buy them for $800. B’cuz everywhere I look they’re selling for $1000. And the Evox 8 is selling for $1700, not $1000 like you state in the video. So if you know where I can purchase these at the price you said, please send me a link. I would definitely appreciate it. Thank you.

    Hey there Mr. LoStax. I heard you say 76~150 people, these would be great. I was wondering, is that the most you would try, or do you think they could do more. I have harbinger mls900s right now and I can't decide if it is worth upgrading. I got a great deal on the harbingers last year($600 for 2 at musicians friend). Now I see these and wonder if I should pull the trigger.

    • @DJLoStax

      @@DJLoStax thanks for getting back so fast. Hope you are well(with this covid going around) . One more question...if I add a 15" ekx sub to these, do you think that would cover that gap between 150~200? I have QSC k12.2 over EV EKX subs for larger events, and also EKX 15" tops. So I have most events for me covered. I was just trying to find easier, faster setups than what I already have. I love your booth!

    One thing I never hear highlighted about column arrays is the lower crossover point between the tops and bottoms. The lower crossover point keeps the vocals in the tops and out of the bottoms - which for live sound is ideal. I have the JMIX8’s fwiw.

    • @hibbasc1
      @hibbasc1 Před 3 lety

      Kol Havaiia - it depends. For a small act like a solo or duo performance - stereo not needed. If you have a performance with a keyboard - which would typically be mixed in stereo, then yes having 2 would be better. For a DJ it’s always best to have two in stereo as all the material is recorded in stereo and this would allow the speakers to reproduce the material as recorded.

    Hello Sir, this is the first time that I have been on your channel. I will say that your content is far more accurate than others. Good Job!
    I would like to add a point or two.
    I have a pair of Turbosound IP1000's. I chose TS because of my experience with installed sound in big arenas and being familiar with their products. I also use a pair of Behringer (I know - gulp) 12" subs too. I sit the IP1000's on top of each sub and once I have set the sound for the room, the experience is quite pleasant. I have used this setup with success and groups just over 400 people.
    I am more of a proponent of how it is used vs what is being used.
    You can have the best gear money can buy, be a sound idiot, and the experience will not be pleasant. Conversely, you can use gear that is perceived to be inferior (Behringer 12" subs") and if the sound man has a clue, you can do more with less.
    Most people today do not have a clue when it comes to sound. And these folks need active set ups, with built in DSP, because their skill is subpar. Nothing wrong with that, nothing at all. They just should NOT be handing out sound advice making blanket statements like "column arrays suck".
    Great channel! Well done sir!

      Thank you for the comment Jay! I apparently you taking the time to write suck a detailed response. I couldn’t agree more that equipment isn’t everything and that you can get great sound out of lower end equipment and shit sound out of high end gear If you don’t know how to use it. I can a pair of Behringer 15inch tops for years and they blew my my friends 1st gen eons out of the water. From there I moved on to a pair of mackie srm 450s and 2 mackie 1801 subs. Once dialed in that set up was pretty awesome and I ran that for 7-8yrs. I now have the RCF 735 A’s and these new J8’s. I would like to add at least 1 RCF 8004 sub to the collection as well. I think pairing that with the j8’s would make one hell of a wedding rig.
      I hope you subscribed and keep the comments coming my friend!

      @@DJLoStax I grew up just south of A^2. I DJ'ed all over Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. Did my first gig in December of 1980. I was the sound engineer for FOH on EMU's campus and worked at U of M when acts would come into Chrysler Arena. While running sound for bands is how I learned about "sound", applying that to DJ'ing really helps. Now that I live in North Carolina, I stay just busy enough, but I am about to ramp up the DJ side of things because North Carolina needs talent.

      @DJLoStax  Před 2 lety

      Probably a slight step up but more so just a different level. The sound out of these is more contained to the dancefloor so you get more bass kinda right there in front of you where a speaker in a cabinet on a stand will throw the sound farther. Hope that makes sense.

    They don't suck, they're ok for vocals and convivial surroundings but if you want deep growling vocals and the punch and buzz you expect on a dancefloor they just dont have it im afraid...it's the same issue we all have when we have a large, flat TV.. the speakers aren't enough...so you buy a soundbar. The only good thing is the weight and ease ...but if you want a real sound get some heavier but better gear.
