Great review. After deciding to go for this type of column array system because I needed a system that would fit in my car and would be as powerful as possible, I did buy 2 of these speakers a few months ago and my biggest reasons were adjustable height and power output - which meant that the only real alternative was the Evox 12, as all other similar systems don't compare in those areas. Decided on these as I understood they had a little more power and I'm very happy with them. Still need to learn the different options and settings on the DSP, but hopefully I'll get to it soon enough. Regardless, I already dj'ed a party (not wedding, so just about everyone was dancing...) for 250 people using these and had no volume issues. Love the lighting fixture trick - I'll need to get me one of those adaptors. Thanks again for the video !

I just bought one of these, used it a bar, small dj gig. It had enough power for like 100 people, and it never busted a sweat. Im going to buy another one for weddings or larger events.

Thank you so much! I love that you guys took the time to go into detail & include real world uses, issues and exp. Great REAL in depth reveiw!

@@djmojoeofficial Bose F1 system vs DB Technologies ES1203. Which is better? Why?

came across these and from the test i've seen they are awesome... Italy really make some great speakers clear sound, I have Mackie SRM 650 which were made in Italy and they have great sound..

Great review Joe and Jaz! I've been a colum cynic...but I'm slowly being persuaded.

This guy's got an actual honest DJ's opinion on how many people this system can handle. I hear people saying the evolve 50's can do a party up to 300 and I think they're crazy.

Lucas, I've used the Evolve 50 for almost two years, mostly weddings, Karaoke and then there are the larger events like Law Enforcement conventions. You are spot on about it not handling the larger groups. I'm looking at replacing it with something that throws more / Deeper in the room. The Evolve 50's DIE as far as throw after about 30 feet. Don't get me wrong they sound very good for a Small room. I just needed something that carried further back in the room. At weddings with the Evolves , I had complaints (for the first time in over 40 years) that people could not hear. Just venting

@@lucaslovesyouiii lucas, thank you for the reply. I'm trying out some DB technologies es 1002 and they sound better. The room is about 150 feet long and 30 feet wide, they are doing a better job. They are a bit of a challenge to do my karaoke shows as the set up allows a lot of the bass to come back on the stage where the singers are. I will try my compact QSC sub and K12.2 and see if that works better. I'm just looking for something that can do my bigger shows without having to lug around a ton . Been playing music since 1978 which makes me ... well... DJ Older than Dirt haha. Thanks again.

Great review guys thanks for that. I bought my 1st set and i will definitely buy a 2nd set for my weddings.

Can I use 1 sub with 4 tops per side?and what is the benefit of this?

Is better the DB tecnologies es 1203 or JBL prx one?

looks amazing, but i'm more interested in the stereo configuration. and i think the dummie speaker doesn't look as sleek as the two poles.

@djmojoeofficial

3 жыл бұрын

Personally, I like the pole look. I also have the option to include a light fixture to the pole if I want, too.

I've never even heard these and I'd take them any/all day over a Bose L1 setup...

I have a small venue we are building out for Jazz style music. Low ceilings and stone walls. Building from the early 1800's. We also host larger events for up to 500 and wanted to be able to take these and replace an order system. Had locked into the EV50M's. But I love the quality and sturdiness of the DBT units. I think the EV's might be better for the small space but not as flexible. Any input?

I’m not an expert in installations, but I figured it would be better to have a modular system where you can swap out speakers in case you want to change in the future

The little pole to mount the speaker i dont see a link for it . Can you tell me where you got it ?

Thanks for the review. I've had the Evox 12s which were great speakers. I have since sold them but now I want to buy another column setup. Have you checked out the FBT CS1000? By the way, I like the light adapter. That just may be the tipping point to buy these! 👍😅

Great info and nice speakers but I’m probably good with my RCF Evox rigs (have both the 8 & 12 series). Maybe if I just wanted to “do something else” I’d consider these (but why? Because I’m a greedy little gear whore lol)...but seriously, I think for anyone who wants to step up their game (massively) , you can’t go wrong with either one! 👍🏽

The red led does not identify a clip, it does not exist in these systems! The red LED simply indicates that the DSP system inside the speaker is dynamically managing the level so if the LED flashes, especially on kick or bass hits, it is quite normal. If it stays on almost steady it means that too high a level is being applied. The dsp will still limit the level avoiding damage to the system but once the maximum level is reached it will be useless to increase the general level again because the dsp will limit until the maximum level is obtained without distortions.
