My first video I've seen of yours, I can't wait to watch yours others! Well done, great explanation, funny, informative, charismatic

[ebentechstudio]

You seem to advertise more of the harbinger speakers these days. Which one would choose between EV ELX200-15P VS HARBINGER VARI V4115 speaker?

[elvismandelli]

If I get the. JBL 18 sub, what do you recommend for front speakers, I’m placing the JBL in my basement for home theater and also for loud EDM music enjoyment, I have a receiver that has several pre out, thank you

[jamaicavybzreggaeband]

Hello, thanks for the video . just watched the set up with the EV ELX 118 P Sub paired with the ZLX 12P, i have a pair of these sub which i use for my Reggae Band, my top speakers are 15inch Behringer which was obviously the wrong choice didn't know better and did no research, am now shopping for a replacement pair of tops and wants to make no mistake on this, we do a lot of out doors gigs and are looking for good punch speakers, what's my best choice on the ZLX ? 12 " v/s 15" , are all these 2 way full range and which will give the best delivery, in my research i only found 1000 wattage on both 12 "and 15 " , are there other wattage on these and if so what would be my best option base on what i will use them for ? thank you ! i just remember this, 2 way V/S 3 way speakers what's your take ?

[tomb]

Whats the built in crossovee of these? Also how do you think these would sound eith two yamaha dxr 12's

[doskoreanitos]

Does this sub only have a crossover via the top speakers mixer/dsp?

[fausto]

Can you run 2 of the 12bt speakers with just 1 sub? is there better value sub solution? Don't know if I want to spend more than 1000 for a sub for home use.

[basscadetoldskool]

hi robin, did you ever review the ev ekx 18sp? would love to see that. cheers.

[johnhub]

Wait... I have been going from mixer to sub to tops (exact ones in your video). I figured the amp has it's own crossover, no?

[Ultimatehobbyreviews]

In 2022 what do you think is the best 15 and 18 inch woofer in the $1000 and lower price range for clear, powerful bass that you can feel and hear and really fills a room with impressive bass - thanks

[mbdjmemo]

Hey Expet Island, my question is, I do have the EV Evolve 50 (2 sets, still under the 45 days try) very happy at this point but I do want to know if 2 ELX200 12 Powered subwoofer along with my the 2 JBL EON612 will be a better option with more power and better quality in the sound? or should I just stay with the 2 sets of EV Evolve 50?

[sonny]

EV ELX 118P or JBL EON 618 s, who is the best
?

[josevasquez]

What's better the EV or the JBL Eon?

[elvismandelli]

You are very knowledgeable, what powered sub would you recommend for deepest bass on the $800 range?

[MrMarcBeat]

Important question here. I have the same subwoofer and Listen very loud outdoor. Limiter is blinking a lot of times. Is it bad for the sub, can it get damaged? Or is the software „protecting“ the sub and prevent any issues. Greetings from Germany

[christopherjoseph]

Hey what's up would you recommend running the ELX Sub through a processor only a sub frequency

[oliverlindstrom]

I have a budget on 2000$ and im going to buy a pa system, two tops and 1-2 subs i have looked a bit on the mackie thump 15a and 18s two of them each and also alto ts3 series. Or i buy two zlx 15p and one elx118 sub what do you guys think is the best buy?

[claudiosartori]

Nice video !! Unfortunately in Brazil this set costs a fortune .... (Nice video!! Infelizmente no Brazil esse set custa uma fortuna....)

[stavrosk]

Can i connect my 2 zlx 15p both in to the elx 118 p?
