They need to add remote connect to them so you can make those adjustments from an I pad or phone app. DBX PA2 lets you connect it to your phone so you can make adjustments remotely without having to adjust each speaker manually. If you fly them you can't get to them to make the adjustments you need.
Hi how are you. I have a pair of ETX 15p tops and a pair of EKX 15 subwoofer . Is this a good combination? At 100hz all of them sounds very loud but missing bass The EKX subwoofer doesn't have the options for configuration for my tops ETX
I am thinking about a pair of the EV ETX 12 or 15p's and also a EV ETX 18sp. Do you think this set up could do a gig of 100-200 people with still very heart pounding bass (Teen fair dance)? I will mostly be playing hip hop, rap, and some dubstep.
Great review! Does the ETX-15p have a fan for cooling? Do you prefer the 15p or the 35p? I'm surprised the 35p has a narrower dispersion angle of 60 horizontal and 40 vertical. You'd think adding a midrange would help the dispersion! Thanks.
+Prem Saggar no fan is used, but air cools it from the action of the cone moving. To destroy the voice coil, compress and limit before the signal reaches it, so the air movement ceases. To keep it cool, do not limit or compress the signal, so it is dynamic
How do these compare to the yamaha dsr115 and the jbl srx815, I personally own a yamaha dxr15 mk2 and the highs are ear piercing loud but the bass on them is just not enough for me. I wanted to know how the srx815 or the etx compares to the dxr15 If you've heard them ofcourse
Love your vids, but you really need a mic. If this is a dslr camera, check the rode videomic pro. Kind of hard to hear the wonderful things you're telling us.
Hi, great video review about the new ETX line, i personally own the ELX 115p and sound great but would like to upgrade. Been thinking about RCF or the new ETX line. Could you compare both or at least give a honest opinion between both of these brands? And how one is better than the other.. Thanks
+DJNexuz1 ETX is leaps above ELX, but that's also why it costs more. I own some RCFs, but they're more basic- beautiful sound, but they don't get anywhere as loud or have as many features.
Hi Arnoldo I just got myself a pair of ETX12p's they sound very bright is there a way to get more bass using them on there own? I know there's room EQ,any more detail using that setting. Many thanks keith.
cerberusnights ...You Can Try Using A Sonic Maximizer on the your 12's if you want a lil more bass i seen a friend use one on his 12's made a big difference but it might be a way to do it through the DSP also just my 2 cents!
Just use the DSP to bring down the trebble and adjust your mid range, bass or both. If you have a mixer you will have even more control over the sound EQ you're looking for by adjusting your band EQ on the mixer and if you want on the back of the speakers as well, On my EKX15p's I like to bring the trebble down -2db and bring the bass up by +2db. I have them set to club mode (There is no club mode on the ETX Series) and I also use my mixer. They sound fantastic as they are but it's just my personal preference. I would recommend using a mixer regadless to get the best out of your sound. I have 2 EV EKX15p's and 1 ETX18sp, looking to get another ETX18sp to complete my set up. Sounds out of this world :)
The ETX line is a little spendy, for me at least, but man do I want some 12" tops and 15" subs. Right now I'm thoroughly enjoying my ZLX tops and ZXA1 Sub, but someday I hope to expand that system with some ETX speakers. Thanks for the video!
So your saying ETX line is well over RCF line? Am looking to upgrade my mobile dj speakers this year and need help choosing them and be worth th investment for a few years from now. Thanks
+DJNexuz1 The RCF 4-PRO 8003 beats the ETX18SP in terms of subs but I can't speak for the rest of RCF's line. I would say that the RCF 745A is better than the ETX15P but it is quite ugly (IMO) your best bet with EV is the ETX35P
Thanks for the review, I have just purchased these speakers as a upgrade from the RCF Art 715A's. How do you reckon it will compare to my old speakers? I will also be purchasing the ETX 18SP subs to go with this very soon... So far I have found the EV ETX Speakers to be more clearer and I liked the fact that it is built out of solid wood as opposed to the plastic RCF cab. I aim to not upgrade now for the next 4-5 years.
Honestly.. it's brand preference at this point. Both sound amazing. The EVs, as I said in the video, are brighter, but I can use the built-in DSP to shape the sound to my preference.
One doubt, this equipment has 2000 watts peak, that is, it would be a thousand rms. But I have seen that the woofer is the SMX2150 which is 400 watts, how it can reach 1000 watts no matter how much the power of the driver is added. In other words, the amplifier would deliver extra power to the components.
+Chris H This speaker is about twice as loud as the ZLX15P, and over twice as expensive. I think EV's generally sound very bright and they both have the fancy LCD DSP.
@@snowvalleyrat Better clarity of sound as well and of course it goes without saying that the birch wood enclosure is much better than the plastic enclosure of the ZLX, so overall much much better sound quality and clarity with very good quality depth.
I have had these since November 2016 I bought the 12p ETX, I bought these and I'm having problems with them clipping already ? I'm a soloist singer, I've only ever set them up on ODB same on my mixer, I don't drive them at all, I even have a BBE Sonic Maximiser, I use DYNACORD mixer newest model unpowered version, yet my EV ETX 12p have been clipping I'm very disappointed after spending over £2000 on these, I used to have EV ZX5 15" powered with Crown XTX 4000 amp lovely sound flawless never missed a beat in 9 years, wish I'd kept them, only reason I changed was carrying to much for a soloist, will be contacting EV really disappointed. Brilliant review though.
Arnoldo Offermann A thank you mate, very nice Review.. I been using mine setting the gains differently keeping my mix in the green and it's performing so well since... how ever they are a quite heavy!! I'm looking to Exchange them for PRX 812W from JBL.... what's your view or thoughts on the JBL PRX ? Would I benefit or would I be better keeping this Set up the Ev ETX 12 P Great Review 👍🏻
Thanks for all the info. It's always great watching your reviews. keep it up!!!!
+Maurizio Gerbasi Thanks for watching!
Arnoldo Offermann anytime buddy....your reviews made me decide on what I wanted to upgrade too
It's an honor to be an influence in my viewers' businesses!
And it's refreshing knowing that people care about the consumer and not just making sales
Thanks Man, I got me a set of ETX P12
an awesome review, as always!
Thanks!

Room acoustics have a LOT to do with how the bass behaves.. but yes, this will be great for that group!

Hey Arnoldo, I just bought these speakers and love them! Just curious....Do you use yours with a driverack, eq, or any type of processor?
Driverack isn't needed. :)
Excellent review. Can you do a deep review on Mackie SRM 650 please.
Thank you! Unfortunately, I only review gear I use.. and I can't trust Mackie again. :/ Personal opinion, of course.
Gear It First ... yeah mackie is definitely suspect i would only use a mackie as a cheap monitor thats it!

Actually, I used the Rode. No idea why it recorded the way it did, but I was not about to redo it.
Yeah, it caught me off guard too. You always have great audio/video. Weird.
Thanks for watching!

Hi, looking to upgrade my previous powered speakers and have in mind the etx or the new Srx800 and thoughts on the jbls? Thanks
I've not heard the SRX, but I know you'll be happy with the ETX!
Hi Arnoldo I just got myself a pair of ETX12p's they sound very bright is there a way to get more bass using them on there own?
I know there's room EQ,any more detail using that setting.
Many thanks keith.
Keith- your best bet is to call EV. They can walk you through each setting a lot better than i can over text. Their support is TOP NOTCH. :)

That's funny. EV techs know nothing about their products. Even basic questions. Complete idiots
Nightworkband ..Oh Wow Ain’t That Some Ish!

I just got ETX 15sp and when I push it a little the limit light flashes, should I be concerned and then I'm getting a little electrical smell?
Brand new speaker? That's the excess glue wearing out.. perfectly normal.
The ETX line is a little spendy, for me at least, but man do I want some 12" tops and 15" subs. Right now I'm thoroughly enjoying my ZLX tops and ZXA1 Sub, but someday I hope to expand that system with some ETX speakers. Thanks for the video!
Thanks! Please share!
So your saying ETX line is well over RCF line? Am looking to upgrade my mobile dj speakers this year and need help choosing them and be worth th investment for a few years from now. Thanks
+DJNexuz1 Depends on the RCF line, as I'm not familiar with everything RCF offers.
+DJNexuz1 The RCF 4-PRO 8003 beats the ETX18SP in terms of subs but I can't speak for the rest of RCF's line. I would say that the RCF 745A is better than the ETX15P but it is quite ugly (IMO) your best bet with EV is the ETX35P
Hey Arnoldo, Does the Protection System work the same on the zlx?
The ETX protection is exclusive to the ETX. ZLX has protection, but nowhere as intricate.
@@GearItFirst The EKX series has the same protection as the ETX.
@@mjsilverfox This was written before EKX
Gear It First Ah yes, I really should have looked at how long ago the original comment was dated.👍🏼
are you need cary subs all the time for play or bether to get some 3 way speakers i was think about jbl 735
peter thelastchanceshop Depends on the event. I'm not a fan of 3 way because they're too tall for tripods and not tall enough for standalone
hi thanksfor response I jest check that jbl 735 the don't have 3 pod stand I just look on ev 15 what are you think about them
You mean the speaker in this video?
Arnoldo Offermann yes you recommend 15 inch or 18 inch subs
peter thelastchanceshop EV's 18s aren't much bigger. Go 18
does these speakers have a fan in them to keep them cool for outdoor events.
+DJ GBOI They can be used outdoors just fine. Remember, I live in FL. :D

Those are good speakers, but the ETX will be clearer and way louder. :)
Nice, do you know what the RMS is on these ETX 15P?
It should be on their site... I think like 1100W
Could you please tell us how to setup the room EQ?
Like you said, they are "Bright", elaborate por favor?
I'll do a video on that!
Arnoldo Offermann
Did you ever get that video up? Having a little trouble understanding the room Eq to get a nice sound I like.
Whats your take on these vs your dsr115?
Honestly.. it's brand preference at this point. Both sound amazing. The EVs, as I said in the video, are brighter, but I can use the built-in DSP to shape the sound to my preference.
Seems like a big speaker to get up on a pole. I would only get this if I mainly did large events of 300 people or so. I would also use subs
Which speaker is highly recommended for DJ the etx 15p or the etx 35p
I use the 15s personally.
@@GearItFirst So the 15s are better
One doubt, this equipment has 2000 watts peak, that is, it would be a thousand rms. But I have seen that the woofer is the SMX2150 which is 400 watts, how it can reach 1000 watts no matter how much the power of the driver is added.

RMS is not half of peak. What?
How would you compare this to the ZLX 15p?
+Chris H This speaker is about twice as loud as the ZLX15P, and over twice as expensive. I think EV's generally sound very bright and they both have the fancy LCD DSP.

Great Review 👍🏻
I haven't used them, but they're honestly light. Wood cabs aren't supposed to be feather-light. That's why they sound good.
How many people can two of these or two DSR115's cover?
+Frank Pirolo with subs
+Frank Pirolo I've done events with as many as 800 people with just 2 + subs!
Arnoldo Offermann Wow!
What are the best fullrange for 1500?
+dj hustleman EV ETX35P but it is debatable. For me, the ETX35p's are monsters.
How do they compare to the dsr115?
It's hard.. because they're 2 different sounds.. neither good nor bad. I think it's up to the user and their preferred brand.
Could they handle your high school events?
cedric jones Sure looks like it!
how would you compare these to a 15 peavey pvxp
+Angel Alba Haven't heard the PVXP
Dang that sucks I'm purchasing some pvxp but I found these and there's not much of a price difference
EV in general is tough to beat!!
