Welcome Welcome to the family of discerning sound equipment users who have selected JBL Professional loudspeakers. EON is a creation of JBL, the world leader in sound reinforcement. JBL sound systems are used in some of the world’s most famous arenas, concert halls and clubs. In fact, JBL speakers are the premier choice for today’s hottest touring acts and artists. You just can’t make a more professional choice.
• • • Keep the exterior of the speaker enclosure clean. Use a damp rag with a general-purpose household detergent. For grease and marking tape residue, use a damp cloth with isopropyl alcohol or mineral spirits and wipe dry. Do not use powerful solvents like acetone, MEK, lacquer thinner or 1,1,1-Trichloro-ethane (household cleaning fluid). These solvents will damage painted and co-polymer surfaces of your speakers. EON speakers are not intended for fixed installation in outdoor environments.

The ear is far less sensitive to very low frequencies than it is to midrange frequencies. A 1,000 Hz sound at 95 dB SPL may seem obnoxious and painful to the ear while 50 Hz. at 95 dB SPL will seem pleasantly powerful.
Application Examples Stereo System With EON Mid / High System with EON Sub G2s This is a system in which a pair of EON Subs are used with a pair of EON 2-way powered speakers.
Mono Subwoofer Here’s a slightly more advanced set-up in which the subwoofers are not driven from the same mixer output as the 2-way main speakers. Using the subwoofers in mono will not degrade the stereo image because the ear does not do a good job of determining the source location of low frequency sound. The illustration shows two ways of using EON subs in mono. While two subwoofers are shown, you can also use this technique with a single subwoofer.
Powered Sub with Passive Mid / High The SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT on your EON Sub G2 provides a simple and convenient way to add subwoofers to a system with passive 2-way speakers.
Voltage Selection And Fuses Changing Voltage Your EON Sub G2 will typically be set at the factory to accommodate the power mains voltage in your area. Before you set up your EON Sub G2 for the first time it is a good idea to verify that the setting of the selector is appropriate for the power in your area. Directly below the IEC power connector you will see a seal that indicates the factory setting for the voltage. If the voltage indicated is correct for your area, go ahead and power up your EON Sub G2.
