Excellent versatile speaker
RedGuitar 14.05.2021
I wanted an allround speaker as a practice amp for singing, acoustic and electric guitar, bluetooth playback and the occosional jam session. And I love how this speaker facilitates all of that. For me that's the main thing that strikes me about this speaker it is so versatile.

1. Portability
The battery lasts ages, I charge about once a week even though every day for an hour. I just don't have to think about it. I notice that because of its portability I take it along everywhere where I need some extra sound level.
2. Connections
This is probably the best feature of all. It has 4 channels! I can sing duets with a friend, play guitar and have a backing track running. While controlling the level of each channel with the app. This is the main thing that made me choose this JBL above the Bose S1 Pro.
That said the phyisical controls are a bit limited, and I don't like the green ring ui around the pot meters its not clear enough what the current setting is. They should have gone with discrete leds from 1 -10 or something. All in all it's a minor thing and makes you use the app more.

3. Sound quality
The sound from the speaker is very neutral and requires some tweaking with the EQ to make it pop to your liking. Personally i put next to my Sonos speaker and tried to emulate the tone as much as possible. And the good thing is with this speaker you can do that, yes it takes a little time and fiddling, but you can get the sound you want and I love what I hear. I boosted the bass and treble.

So all in all a terrific all round speaker that has tons of features, can go plenty loud and puts all of it in small easy to use package.

Nice addition for acoustic singer/song writer
Flemming R 19.07.2021
I use this with acoustic guitar and mic for song. Primary use are very small cafe's, occasional street music, and a mini-rig for demo-ing myself to new customers.

It's fairly low weight and ergonomics makes it easy to handle, and setup time is extremely fast as mixer is onboard - just plug in, and go (after initial playing around and getting the sound and volume right)

This is a very nice sounding box and with only just a little eq'ing everything sounds very good and pleasantly natural.

I also like that it charges the battery - or operates directly from - the quipped 220v IEC mains connector - and that you can power you ipad or pedals from the built-in usb ports (although if you have the box on a stand as I usually do, it will be some nasty long charger cables... better to have a seperate powerbank ;) )

Although I really like this box, there are some drawbacks. Firstly, In order to turn effects on and off, you need the app - not really a problem, but sometimes having a footswitch is just more convenient.

The sound level is OK - but I find myself driving it at max volume to get a decent sound level, i.e. it just blinks red occasionally indicating clipping starts. Clipping is not digital or analogue distortion, but the jbl it starts compressing the sthe sound more and more noticably the more it "clips" - so you are not hurting anyones ears, it just becomes... well, squashed. I miss a some headroom here, as I find when driving speakers they tend to loose "control" over the sound.

Bottom line is that this speaker without competition for its price. This speaker sounds awesome for my guitar and vocal, but I wish it was just a tad louder.

Good choice
Enge 03.04.2022
This speaker is loaded with features that makes small gigs incredibly easy. Battery lasts for hours on end, and the app makes soundchecks much smoother. Have been using this for 20+ small gigs the last year and it has been stable and easy to use.

Brilliant functionality and great quality product. Recommended!
Pappion 10.11.2024
I use two JBL Eon One Compact amplified speakers for outside use for large gatherings. I also use one weekly for a small room performance. The app is very useful for altering the mic volume without having to physically going to the amp. Brilliant functionality and great quality product. I would highly recommend this amp speaker!

Not enough headroom
dezsy92 07.01.2020
I know that this is not a professional PA speaker like the JBL EON 615, thats why I sent this back, and ordered an EON.

For listening music on bluetooth, and also for a little karaoke party, it's good, but if you want to achieve the advantages of a really good michrophone, you have to buy a better sounding speaker.

BUT the features it gives are really cool.

Great guitar overall!
Tzoglhs 17.09.2020
Great overall!
Light, good battery life, nice sound, loud enough, many inputs.
The effects are just OK.
The only con is the android app because it does not work in it's full potential with all android versions.

So good I have just now purchased a second one to keep my first company!
Anonymous 19.07.2022
I have been using my lovely JBL eon to play for two Border Morris sides and with my Bridge Golden Tasman electro accoustic violin plus inputting two flutes and an accordion, the sound is very much like the original accoustic sound. To cover the requirements of a larger venue I have now purchased a second unit. I'm excited to try this out when it arrives.

Best option for busking or even karaoke session
Roven 15.07.2022
This speaker is a beast. I know Bose fan boys will defend S1 Pro's place but this speaker checks many boxes. Multiple ins and outs, USB power outputs, app that can control it, deeper bass compared to S1 Pros, easy swappable battery.

I bought a Moukey mini mixer which can be powered via USB and velcroed it on the speaker. Basically I expanded the single Hi-Z line input of the Eon One Compact into 4 instrument line ins!

The speaker is very high quality. The battery works perfectly (12 hours). It is very convenient to use. Bluetooth works over long distances. A valuable purchase.
