- A Simple Review by a Professional DJ.
In this video I review the new-ish JBL EON 715 Powered PA Speaker for bands and DJ's.
This is a bluetooth 5.0 capable model that works with the JBL Control App.
I will be following up this video with a gig video and sound check where I put them to the test.

Finally a review in English lol. Thank you. I ordered the 712 but I think I’m going to return it.
If you have the option to buy the Electro Voice models, like I said in the video, that is my other speaker suggestion. You can find a link in the description to this video to the 15" models. Hope that helps.
Thanks! I’ve been looking for a review for this speaker.
Glad I could help!
I was in the same boat before deciding to purchase these.
Thanks for making this video, looking forward to finding out how the speakers performed at your gig in video part 2
Glad I can finally get some real information out there about these. I'll get that follow up video out asap. I really enjoyed making this video so I'm also planning on doing some reviews about the other gear I'm using for gigs. Stay tuned for that!
Your «asap» is crazy long 🤣
I bought a pair of these for our parties (house/techno music, 50-100 people, various smaller venues indoor and outdoor). So far very happy with them. For us the lower weight and the handles make a huge difference as we don't own a car or van for transport. Either we put them on a taxi or we strap them on the back of our scooters, job done. We are expecting to host bigger parties later, so eventually will add the 718s subs. For these smaller parties however, the 715 woofer produces plenty of nice clean low end sound! Yet to have to max them out either. Feeding signal to the speakers direct from a Xone96 mixer.
Interesting you mention the 3rd gain control via the menu. I didn't notice this as the channel gain knob set around -12dB appears to produce sound levels I was looking for. We don't use any mics though. Will play around with this next time I turn them on. Thanks for the video!
When you say scooter, you mean like a motorized scooter right? Not like a razer scooter or something like that? 😆
Yeah, I think the third gain setting is important for lower powered items like just using a mic. I run my sound through a mixing board before it gets to the speaker, so I imagine running straight from a phone to the speaker would probably need the third gain setting adjusted as well.
@@djsanctus1650 Haha, yep I mean a 125cc petrol powered bike, the ones that are the main mode of transport in South East Asia.
Hey man, thanks for the video! This was really helpful. I think the gain feature inside the menu is the input sensitivity gain. Lots of speakers will have a button that says something like "Mic / Line" that you select for whatever type of source you're using. It seems like that is what this is for. This one allows you to manually set it which I think is actually kind of cool. That means you can really optimize your speaker's performance for whatever source you're using. For example, if you are playing music from a mixer and the speaker starts clipping at a lower volume, you can lower the input sensitivity gain and it will likely resolve the issue and give you more headroom. But, it's also an extra step to think about with each source that you're using so could be a big turn-off to some. More control over your sound vs. ease of use. Anyway, I'm interested to hear what you think after putting them through their paces. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment!
I'm glad I could help.
I figured it was something like that.
It seems like an extra fine layer of control, but I think the biggest turn off for me was the lack of documentation on this feature.
There wasn't anything in the manual that told me I needed to adjust this in order to get lower powered inputs to work.
Just had to find it myself.
My next gig is this weekend so stay tuned for the next video on their performance!
Thank you for commenting this, I was wondering why my sound was so low. I did change the gain in the menu. I do remember having the sound issue on the 615’s and I pushed the white button behind the speaker and it fixed the volume.
Can you reply what settings you use for the gain? I'm unsure where to start between the 3 different gains/volume...Like...set main volume, then channel gain, then gain in the menu? etc....What order do you set things...I'm in a live band setting...
Thanks for the review man. Keen to see your thoughts after the gig. I'm looking for a new 12 or 15"
Thank youuu man such a great review
My pleasure!
Can't wait for part 2. Looking forward to you comparing the EON 715 to the EV ZLX15.
Great video you save me with that third DB I had the same problem I couldn’t get them to work thank you
Glad I could help! How are you liking yours?
Thanks, yes I thought it was broken as well. Thanks for the video sir!!
Great video! I am planning to get these but you mentioned it being quite complicated to set up or use... Seems that it is... Thanks for this!
I'm a DJ, I got molded plastic PA cabinets, I installed commercial movie cinema woofers & tweeters into the cabinets, I get tons of positive feedback regarding quality of sound, (great for weddings).
Show us the product ☺️🤣 instead of running your gums 🤔🤔
I can't believe anyone can review a product like this and clearly hasn't looked at the user manual - eg your comments about gain and ducking release time. And from the few comments I've looked at below, it's clear there are lots of other guys who buy this stuff and have all kinds of questions about getting it to work, when they, too, have clearly not looked at the manual. Read the bloody manual guys! (But hey, that's just me, I'm an engineer.)
Well for starters, I typically don't read manuals for equipment I've used in the past (do you read the manual for a toaster before you buy one? Probably not). I've been a DJ for going on a decade and have used several different speaker systems, plus I'm a fairly tech savvy person, so I don't shy away from new tech like this.
Secondly, I did read the manual that came in-box with the speakers and it was extremely unhelpful in regards to control systems. It was much more a-kin to a quick start guide than an actual full user manual.
Thanks for the video I have no ideal about speakers so I purchase these speakers and wildly enough I'll be using wireless mics too.
What are you planning to use them for? Also, what kind of mics did you get?
@@djsanctus1650 I'll be using them in my school for shows and stuff. The wireless mics are Sennheheiser EM 100 with wireless mics.
@@djsanctus1650 hi, does the JBL eon 715 get hot when turned on? I bought two Electro-Voice ZLX-15BT speakers and they get very hot at the rear side after turned on for 15 minutes even when it’s not playing anything. Thanks
I just got my pair of these yesterday. I thought they were broke for the first 30 minutes until I found your video clueing me into that 3rd gain buried in the settings. Thank you. Have you settled on what levels you're running each of the three gains, all the same or any higher/lower than the others? Running out of a mixer and it feels really weird having 3 gain volumes on the speaker and then the gain on the mixer channel, volume of the channel, and main volume out of mixer. That's six gain/volumes in the chain to get all working together. Curious what you experience as you use them more. Also I'm getting a buzzing when I play music that's mostly acoustic guitar & vocals....no buzzing with basey songs. Need to try some other cords. Or maybe it's in an eq or gain setting buried in the settings. Haven't tried Bluetooth yet, curious to see if the buzzing is still present or if it's only when I'm hardwired in. Looking forward to your updates as you gig with them.
Glad I could help!
I don't have my pre-sets figured out just yet. Going to see how they handle at the gig next weekend and talk about it in the next video.
I imagine I'm going to keep the buried gains pretty high and use the master/mixer board as the main volume control.
Are you using balanced cables?
If not, that might explain the buzzing.
I agree that the number of gains seems silly.
@909overdose I guess that depends on what you mean by correctly 😅 I've got them set up to work with my DJ system, but they don't always work for smaller uses (like I tried setting them up to play audio while watching Dune on our projector).
@909overdose There is this in the user manual, even though I admit I missed it as I was already pleased with my levels coming out of a DJ mixer: "Gain adds preamp gain to the system to support microphone usage. EON700’s fader runs standard in LINE
LEVEL, but accessing the GAIN menu can allow users to plug a microphone in directly". Overall I get the impression this gain in the menu is to be used only if you don't get strong enough of a signal otherwise. Mic being a prime example, but there may be other weaker signal sources.
Thanks mate, i have the eon612 super easy. Was going to update and use these for mains and12s for foldback. Might go with the 615, less features easier
I'd suggest the electro voice speakers for sound quality. They are a little heavy but better quality in my opinion.
Thanks for the review! About to pull the trigger on a pair of these715s and the 718S sub. After your first gig with these, would you say you would buy these again or save your $$ and go with EV ELXs and the EV sub? Thanks!
Please don't go with the jbl srx 815sp if you can or the jbl prx 815...if you're pockets deep get the the jbl srx 835p that's what I use and I got some Electric voice etx 15s
They are complicated speakers, if you don't be careful with the gains you can damage the speakers, but they sound great
Yeah, I’ve been very cautious with that interior gain setting.
Have you damaged your speakers or seen damaged speakers because of the gain?
I would’ve thought the clipping safeguards would protect them from cranking it up too much?
@dj sanctus do you recommend 1 or 2 of these if you want to do a DJ gig? I have a Pioneer DJ controller. I can see each speaker has 2 channels. Thanks a lot.
Well I’ll say that technically depends on things like the size of venue/crowd, if you want stereo output, if symmetry for your setup is important, and then what your budget is.
One will work for something like a small pool party. Two will be more of what you need for a wedding reception or a dance.
Hope that gives you at least something to make a judgement off of.
@@djsanctus1650 yes I appreciate your reply. Thanks a lot. I will be doing some heavy thinking.
@@djlex484 Of course, glad I could help!
Feel free to support the channel by using my amazon links in the description if you decided to buy one. 👍
Hey! Really excited about your next video. I went to a local sound store and paired my phone to one of these. With 0db gain and max volume, the speaker started limiting. I never expected it to do that. Compared to other brands like the EV ZLX which didn't struggle at all. Even cheaper brands weren't limited at 0db. Do you think this is just a gain thing? I left really disappointed that the speaker couldn't take a little beating and produce a high SPL.
Update the firmware! Before my eon 700’s even both of my 718s were hitting limiter at -20db master volume. After updating firmware the limiter doesnt even turn green at 0db master volume
@@OmegaDerrick Thanks so much for this. No one has done a video with the speaker playing and shown if it hoits the limit or not...or how to eq it
I still haven't updated mine since purchasing. Did you encounter any problems after updating?
@@djsanctus1650 no issues so far for me. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Where do I find your part 2 of this product?
Hello! I have the speaker plugged into an electronic drum set but can’t get any sound out of it. I’ve adjusted all 3 gains and still no sound. Bluetooth with my phone works, however. Scratching my head on this one. Any advice?
Well that sounds frustrating. Sorry you’re having problems.
If there is output from the drum set, you should be hearing *something.
You might plug the drum set into a second device of some kind (small Bluetooth speaker, laptop, etc…) to verify you’ve got audio coming out.
Next take something else that outputs audio (like a microphone) and test to see if you get sound from the speakers.
If you do, and you’ve tested both Chanel 1 and Chanel 2 and can’t get sound from the drums, it could have to do with the drums output being too weak.
At which point you could purchase a Bluetooth transmitter and have a “wireless” drum set.
Or, you could purchase a signal amplifier of some kind and increase the output signal.
Nice speaker jbl
Is the ducking able to completely silent a channel? Thinking about having backround music via bluetooth that gets silenced when someone sings karaoke on my karaoke system thats connected by XLR
That's a neat use case for these. I don't think this will work as intended because the ducking just drops the volume some. Also it pops right back up within a few seconds. So the singing would need to stay consistent.
I have a question about the powe r button. Is there a setting in the software to have the soesker default to on when plugging in.. i ask because the typical "hard switch" has thebadvantage of seotching on the speaker remotely via controllling the plug socket power. Also concerned about having it mounted high amd speaker being accidentally unplugged. Then wouldni have to always re press the button when pkuggimg back in the speaker?
The power button is digital so you will need to turn the speaker back on if it gets unplugged for longer than about 10 seconds.
To my knowledge, there is no way to change a setting so it automatically turns on when plugged in.
Is there a Rough Guide to the perfect Gain Settings?? I received the speaker today and im not exactly sure what im tweaking as far as the Sound , Quite complicated opposed to the original Eon Gain settings......Any Help much appreciated as i dont want to damage the speaker.....Thanks
So sorry for not getting to this until now.
I don't know that the "perfect" gain settings exist, but this is what I've been doing.
*Start by turning all volume controls all the way down on everything*
-Starting at my laptop, setting my audio out to 75%.
-At my mixer board, setting all of my volume sliders to where I want them.
-At my speakers, *with music playing* starting with the internal chanel gain at about 8db, put the master volume to about 75%, next, start increasing the external gains for each chanel up until the sound is at the desired volume.
If you get to 100% on the external gains, set them back to 50%, increast a few more db on the internal gain ad try again.
This way, you have several places to squeeze some extra volume if needed.
You can increase volume at the mixer, or at the speaker, or both if you really need it.
Hi I'm looking to buy a couple of these and one sub with it but I have a few noobie questions. Does it make sense to also get 2 subs with a pair of these to have a good balance of sound or is one sub enough? And my most important question is is there a limit of how many eon715 speaker and eon718 sub I can plug together? I might want to expand in the future and buy a few more to get a 100-200 people dancing outdoors. Would 4-5 of these and 3 subs do the job?
thanks for your time
Great questions, I would say you can get by with one sub in most situations, but it very much depends on what your situation is.
If you're in front of a large crowd and you're playing bass heavy club music, 2+ would be a good choice.
If you're renting these out, 2 would be a good choice.
If you're buying for a band or wedding dj set-up and you play for crowds of 200 or less, 1 would likely be fine.
You can plug as many of these together as your venue power can support. Each of these are individually powered, so chaining them together doesn't effect their power.
Total power on the venues main circuit is what will matter.
Feel free to give me any follow up questions you have.
Help out my channel by using the purchase links in the description! 😄
Never mind I did more research and all my questions got answered, also Im going for RCF art 735 instead
@@djsanctus1650 And thanks for your answer, I will get a the sub from RCF that is 1150w rms and I will see how it sounds, it's for open air tekno parties so two will definitely be necessary for more than 50 people outside actively dancing and losing themselves in the music.
How do you switch off the bluetooth? I've noticed that I can connect my smartphone anytime and pair with the speaker to play the music. This seems kind of risky during performance that someone will play with it.
So you can do it automatically with a new device without pairing it through the menu first? Literally just bought these and that's what I've been worried about. They say you can connect your phone to it to prevent anyone else doing so but then I'm worried about getting a phone call
What wires do you use for connecting to your sound board?
Already have a 12" RCF sub. Any reason to go with the 15" vs the 12 or 10"?
How big of a venue are you trying to fill?
I would say that if you have a sub, you can probably step down one speaker size.
So if you want to play large 400+ person venues, you can get away with a sub and the 12"
Hey man I got a pair of these. It thought I was broke until I saw that gain feature. Question though. Is your from China or Mexico?
Mine has a stick saying made in Mexico and but under the sticker it has made in China.
Mine have the "made in mexico" sticker as well.
That's funny that they had to cover up the "made in china" sticker.
Hey man, Could you explain how you have the ducking set up please? I cant even get the volume to drop down when I speak.
nevermind it looks like it only does ducking if im playing music via bluetooth
What exactly is the pass through used for? And what cables are used for that versus the channels?
The pass-through is essentially a mixed audio out.
Doesn't matter how the sound is coming in (channels or bluetooth) you can get the output from the pass-through.
The pass-through is just a male mic cable port (has pins).
Channel 1 and 2 accept both 1/4" and mic cables (female, doesn't have pins).
@@djsanctus1650 I plug my subwoofer into the pass through is that not right?
@@feltonclark2519 depends! Is it a powered subwoofer? If so, that's exactly what it should be used for!
Sir can you do also review while you are on gig thank you☺️
Absolutely! I plan on doing a full gig-video after my next event which happens on April 23rd.
Any Tips on setting the #DB on each channel as was getting distortion as im running the speaker through my Pioneer mixer w/ master at 12 o clock......Thank you
If you set your speaker’s master and channel specific volumes to around 75%, everything past that point should be based on speaker placement, cables, and how your mixer board is set up (volume, gain, frequency levels, etc…).
Are you getting distortion on microphones or music you’re playing?
@@djsanctus1650 what #db% though it's quite tricky on these speakers
@@djsanctus1650 The db on this JBL is +/- trying to find best setting
man thanks for this review. I recently upgraded from the JBL eon615's to these with the eon 18s subs. I thought I knew how to plug and play these, shouldn't be much different from the eon600 series right? haha wrong. I felt like I was pushing on my board and just wasn't getting enough. Like you said in the video "you feel like they're broken already". I had no idea you had 2 gain levels per channel. one on the channel knob and the other in settings. Didn't realize I had to mess with both until I saw your video so thank you for explaining all this! Im gonna adjust my settings tomorrow and see if that fixed my problem I was having with these speakers. Im more than sure this was the issue. Oh and I hate that these don't come with the pole setter screw. The only design flaw I hate about these compared to the 600 series.
Glad I could help dude! Would love to hear your thoughts on their build quality compared to the 600's.
Mine got scratched up really easily.
@@djsanctus1650 mine have only a couple of miles on them and haven't really been put to the test as far as durability yet, so I wouldn't be able to give you a proper review of quality. I have a bunch of shows upcoming the next few months though. As for right now they seem pretty durable. But I put my 600's to the test, even been dropped from a speaker stand thanks to some heavy winds at an outdoor event. The 600s were great. I love them. So far I am little iffy on the 700s but I know that once I dial it in correctly they'll be better than the 600s. My only real issue is how heavy the 718s are. I was using the JBL PRX718s with the Eon600s and man I was getting some great sound out of them. And the PRX subs were super light for being subs. These eon subs are about 65-70 lbs heavier. I'll give you a review in about a month after I have put them through about 6 shows.
@@djsanctus1650 also I think the issue or big difference between the 600s and 700s is the mic/line button the channel inputs for the 600s. The 700s don't have those which is where knowing your gain levels helps with the sound output. Pushing that little mic/line button on the 600s was awesome, especially me who uses my equipment to run sound for bands. I wish they would've kept that feature on the 700s to make it easier instead of having to change all your gain levels accordingly. I just feel they made it to where its more work to adjust your levels than compared to the 600s. Also I used the JBL app to control the levels and I didn't notice a difference. I had all 4 speakers connected and literally didn't hear a difference when messing with the levels on the app. Have you had any problems or issues with the app?
Hey DJ Sanctus
I recently bought 4 of these Eons 715, and 2 of the Eons 718s, the problem is that I am not able to get some good sound, as soon as I increase the volume using the gain, and the one on the main settings I immediately get a red light/clipping
@@jimmygobe9815 Hey there, is the clipping on all of them? I don't have the 718's so I can't really speak to how those function.
I do know that my method is usually to set everything on my gear to the lowest volume, set the internal gain for the speakers to like 8db or so, and then slowly turn everything up, starting with putting my mixing board at the prefered volume levels before moving to the speakers.
If your speakers are going from 0 sound to clipping as soon as you increase the gains, then in my mind the issue is likely with what your outputting to them.
Whatever signal your sending them is too much for them to work with, assuming all of the other gains/volumes are at reasonable numbers.
If you've maxed out the master volume, and the chanel gains, then your increasing the digital gains, that may be the problem...
Hope that helps, my friend!
Do these speakers come in pairs or only one speaker at a time
You can buy a bundle that will usually save you a little money, but they do not normally come in pairs.
My bundle included two speakers, two stands, and two audio cables.
How did they go
Would a pair of these be enough to piss the neighbours off? I can’t make up my mind if I should get these or 2x jbl partybox 1000 don’t no what will thump harder
go with the 2x partybox 1000, unless you are a dj or expect to do events buy the EON 715. I have 2 PB1000 and 1 EON 715 I use them in parties and actually for personal use I would not even suggest buy any, all of them are way too powerful and you get "tired" of hearing them. Also PB1000 have integrated subwoofer which really shake the houses, they can go very very low.
please i want to ask ? can i connect JBL with any different power speaker
If you are using cables, yes.
You can connect a JBL speaker to any other powered speaker. You'll want to use either a balanced XLR cable or a balanced 1/4" TRS connector.
Wirelessly, using the JBL connect app, I don't believe so.
If you are just trying to connect two speakers to an audio sorce via Bluetooth, you ca buy a Bluetooth transmitter that can connect to more than one device.
I believe I have a link to one in my video description.
@@djsanctus1650 thank you
please i have a question another question if you can ans.......... me . if i have two different passive speaker can i connect them together ?
sec , if i have two different amp........... can i connect them together ?
Where does one find the plug ins with extra feed through..?
I don't know that I understand your message.
There are two "audio ins" (ch1 and ch2) and they will both feed to the output chanel.
Can you elaborate on what you mean by extra feed through?
How happy are you with these?
On a scale of 1-10 where 10 = perfectly happy. I'm probably a 7.5 right now.
(having not used them in a gig yet).
The problem with jbl eon 700 series is you cannot turn off the bluetooth on the speaker. Anyone can connect to the speakers using bluetooth even if your are using line 1 or line 2.
I agree that this is a major issue.
I haven't had it happen to me yet. What has happened is losing power at a venue and my laptop connecting to the speaker via Bluetooth after power came back and sending me on a wild goose chase about why my mixer no longer controls music volume...
Don't you have to pair a device before you actually connect manually through the menu
You can't connect a mobile Bluetooth device unless you don't push the button to apply the Bluetooth connection at the speakers display
Thank you I just got some and was like wth lol
I thought mine was broken , until I realized that gain function.
All it would’ve taken to avoid a LOT of confusion is a simple note in the quick start guide… come on JBL
Which is better? This or the JBL Partybox 1000?
These are very different products.
Are you wanting to be a pro DJ and plan to buy lights, a facade, maybe a bass speaker? Get the eons.
Do you want to just have a fun time DJing at your friends house party?
Maybe get the partybox.
The party box isn't made for large events. If you can't put it on a speaker stand, you won't get the sound distribution you want.
@@djsanctus1650 I just want to use the bluetooth function on either speaker? Which is louder and has better bass?
I specifically purchase the JBL for its plastic housing. Doing 7 events weekly, it gets old lifting heavy boxes..
Yeah I can understand that.
The weight difference between these and a wood box housing is for sure noticeable. But so is the feeling of quality between the wood and cheaper plastic.
DO THEY HAVE GOOD BASS ON THEM
Yes, the 15s have great bass .
@@anthonyradzik4871 They don't have any bass, compared to actual speakers.
Would these be good for a party of 150 people more or less
Absolutely!
Can u add effects when playin music??
Not with features built into the speaker itself. Of course it's possible to add effects with a mixing console or other external device.
English? I was about to learn Spanish so I could review a damn speaker lol
🤣🤣🤣
Me es importante la traducción a español para entender en latoamerica. Bendiciones. Ecuador.
How to pear 2 of them?
I haven't been able to pair them together yet.
I've tried using the JBL app to do it and haven't been able to make it happen yet.
Hoping there's a firmware update or something that will help.
I've been able to pair them with a device similar to this ( amzn.to/3vqCyAT ) and run both speakers totally wirelessly.
Just be aware that you can have latency issues with something like this if you're using them in conjunction with wired speakers.
Zlx 15bt vs eon 715 what is the best?
Depends on what kind of feature set is important to you.
Do you want great wireless capability?
Sound ducking?
Anti-feedback?
App control?
The Eon wins in these categories.
Do you want a generally more robust and better built speaker?
Are you only going to buy 1 speaker or run wired 100% of the time?
Do you want a setscrew for your speaker stand? 🤣
The ZLX wins in these categories.
It depends on what you're looking for.
Use my links in the video description to purchase either of the speakers you're looking for.
@@djsanctus1650 just the sound quality
@@davidarko personally, I'm more of a fan of the ZLX's sound.
I think with the JBL app, the Eon can be fine tuned to what you want with highs/lows/bass boost, but the resonance of the heavier cabinet of the ZLX makes it sound more impressive.
That's a subjective opinion so someone with a better ear than me may disagree, but that's my take on it.
@@djsanctus1650 thank you so much
It’s 1 year after and we still haven’t gotten the next video
Porfa. Amigo , la esplicacion puede ser español y con prueba de sonido y música. Buenos días.
dude bring the second vid already :P
I love my two jbls is Great for heavy metal low gain!!
Just found out JBL 700 series has a 7 year warranty! Equal to Yamaha
Sir the more I find out about these 715 the more thinking I made a 11 hundred dollar mistake I just wanted to plug a mic and a electric acoustic into one and I haven't dived into it 100 percent yet but I think I'm going to have to put a mic in one and hopefully the guitar will work w the other one all I have is a home studio slash jam room and I work hard for my money my name is Rich not my financial status ok THANX Richard
They're good speakers, they might not be the best option out there, but they work.
Any reason you didn't buy an amp for the guitar?
Para DJ seria uma boa opção?
Sim
I bought two of these today and haven't opened them yet. I'm not even opening them they are going straight back because they don't have a set screw what the f*** JBL
Glad I could help you make purchasing decisions 😆👍🏼
i love JBL EON 715 JBL EON 718 is best and i am dj for now
Awesome! I don't have the 718's yet. Glad to hear you like them.
Any more feedback on this speaker?
JBL really screwed up, they made the female hole for the pole 36mm instead of 35mm, 35mm is standard, and that is why the thing flops around on standard stands. This made me very upset when I bought the speaker because that is not cool at all. I believe that in manufacturing someone made a mistake with the hole measurements, and it was too costly to correct, or either they changed it purposely to get people to buy their proprietary speaker stands. However, i cannot find a speaker stand that supports a 36mm hole size from any manufacturer. I am thinking of sending it back because when you are out working you need your speaker to be snug. And like this interview said, why not include a set screw??????????
Yeah, I've been using cable wraps to hold the cables in position on the stand, which in turn mostly keeps the speaker from moving, but it's still not great and even a little unstable.
It does make getting them on the pole easier, if we're looking on the bright side...
Probably ok
had to return mine because I can't put it in the standard so it doesn't fall that's the only thing I think jbl ble was missing to but it sounds good😒😒😒😓
Sad day! Sorry you had to return them.
Are you getting something else instead?
have three but I was missing one so I had to buy two to have the complete pairs but they do not work for me, I hope and JBL will make a new design so that they do not move much.
Why do yo call yourself DJ “Sanctus” do you know what that means?
I do in fact know what that means.

sounds like they are not as good as the previous 615's. Less handles, no speaker stand grub screw, disappointing control system that seems fiddly and not as intuitive. I don't like the green light on the front that can't be easily switched off. All over not as good for the extra money.
Supposedly the 715's sound better than the 615's. Would like to hear a head to head comparison.
l agree whit you..very dificult speaker..
OK SO-where's part 2 of the review bc clearly you really don't care for these speakers based off your energy
So why did u buy this product???? If u have so many complains ???? Next time go out & test the product before purchasing 🤡🤡🤡🤒🤒🤣😂🤭🤭 man
Because the feature set still makes sense for me. It might not make sense for other people.
Also.
