I've had mine for years. Bought them when they first came out. They stay out in the garage in sub zero Montana nights and still work great. i work as a solo and in a duo with a female singer and for a while they were the only speakers we had. We used them at all kinds of venues and no one ever said we weren't load enough.

I had the Eon 10's and found them just Ok.
No comparison with the Ev sx100 12's I use now.
Sweet!!!

I have the Eon G2 and love them. Plenty of power and VERY portable. They go easily on inexpensive (On Stage) support stands too The perfect rig for me. Now add the 800

lots of speakers are portable and reliable and sit on stands. if you go to a store that has several on hand, listen to the differences.
that's what sold me on the EV's.

I am very happy with mine. About 4x a year, I am slightly underpowered, but for the other 500 plus shows, they are great. I am sure that there are better sounding speakers, but they are quite a lot heavier. There is no speaker that gives you such great portable sound with such compact size and low weight.

I have A/B'd these two amps in the store.....& for half the price the Traynor/Yorkville 50KB definitly sounds so much better. Its clearer & more robust at higher levels....easier to stack too.
Maybe I'll pick one up just to have a small utility go to KB amp that sounds VERY decent in a small situation. Try one if you get a chance this company has the "GOODS"....they really make a super LINE sound reinforcement products.

Your Traynor K4 not suitable for those "small situations" Donny?

Of course Keyboard magazine said,"No single cabinet is going to pump out the space that two properly placed ones will, and I doubt if I could flag the K4 as a stereo amp from 30 ft away".

Mmmmm...that doesn't sound good (pun intended).

You''ll miss the Roland CM-30s...you used to gush lavishly over them...they failed you?

Ian you have so much to learn ......

first of all you never played thru a K4....am I correct? secondly everything I have is "FOR SALE" so there is no problem buying and selling these tools when ever needed....the CM30's are wonderful units best bang for the buck bar none. Just because I buy & sell gear doesn't always mean its no good as you try to portray. Ian your depressive inquisitive negativity doesn't impress me at all....in fact its kind of humorous & repetitive....maybe I'll go shopping today with Fran and buy something new....
