EV ZLX 12P

I've only just unpacked my new Ev ZLX 12P and haven't really had time to road test it yet. On first impressions and without 'pushing' the level, the sound quality isn't the best I've heard (I also use a QSC K10 which sounds better) but for the price bracket it's a beast. Just be warned that as with any of these types of units, the louder you go the more the quality diminishes, oh and watch out for that 'Fletcher Munson Curve'.

All n' all, I'm very happy with it for DJing at small venues.

*Update... I pushed this unit at a party last weekend and it didn't really stand up (as I expected) Although this was at an open air event, under cover but not enough for much absorption. So I guess living in a country where most of my gigs are outside, perhaps next time I will be inclined to spend a bit more to get that bit of extra sound quality at high levels. I still maintain it's not at all bad for the money and for small parties or venues.

What can you say, they are light in weight and light in performance, I frequently clipped them playing outside to a point where I thought the woofer develloped a rattling sound. They generate a significant amount of heat which makes outdoor gigs during sunny days a no-no. I suppose the DSP settings on the back are suppose to be an attractive feature but I find it confusing, you test all the settings with different equalizer settings and before you know it you can't make up your mind which sounds better and you end up always messing with it specially when you're gigging and the acoustics of a room requires you to reconsider your settings my OCD with the sound settings tends to drive the other band members nuts. Anyway, I got burgled and they got stolen and I wasn't too upset about it. I should have bought the EV 300SX passive speakers, in fact I think I will
