Questions & Answers

Hello, How does this speaker compare to the Behringer EUROLIVE B815NEO 1200w, and which one is the best?

I'm not a fan of the Behringer speakers, but they're not all bad; I've only done a side-by-side comparison. Overall, the EV won over the Mackie thump15, which had a slightly lower bass tone. I apologize for not being more helpful.

Is a power converter required because I use a 220 volt power supply?

Hello, you do not require one; I purchased one and it operates perfectly on 220v.

Is the Elx115 the same as this?

The ELX does not have the dsp which can help tune the speaker for different applications and low pass filters so it can be matched to different subwoofers the ELX is more geared to a mobile DJ who plays in a variety of places without the need for external processors and crossovers the ELX is a better build I ran mine side by side they do not sound that far apart both are clear in the high's and mid's and have good bass as I said you tune the Z

I was wondering if these speakers would work with the Pioneer ddj sb? because there isn't an xlr input?

There is an XLR output. I'm not sure if that's for another speaker's output or for input.

Selected User Reviews For Electro-Voice ZLX-15P 15" 2-Way 1000W Powered Loudspeaker

The speakers are excellent, but the amplifiers are average
4/5

The speakers are fantastic, but EV clearly cut corners on the built-in amplifiers to save money. I had to purchase an external noise filter to get them to be quiet while idle (none of my previous receivers had ever done this, and some were over 20 years old), and, as others have pointed out, there is no fan, so they get hot even when I'm not pushing them. This isn't a big deal for me because I'm using them as computer speakers, but if you're at a big party and it's already hot, it could be a problem. However, once I got the external noise filter, I was much happier with the sound quality; it made a huge difference.

For mobile DJ and live sound gigs, this is the ideal combination of sound quality, weight, and price
5/5

I'm a professional mobile DJ who provides live sound for local bands at festivals and a series of concerts in the park. After DJing back-to-back with a new set of these speakers (EV ZLX 15P), back weddings and as front-of-house speakers for a 5-star hotel I'm extremely pleased with the full sound, ease of mobility, and ease of use of my four-piece classic rock band. For this mid-priced item ($399), the price is unbeatable. speaker at a reasonable volume I considered adding a subwoofer, but the bass produced by these speakers in the "Music," "Club," and "Live" modes is more than sufficient for most indoor and outdoor venues with capacities of up to 500 people. The speakers are very responsive to sound board adjustments, and if you're a DJ or sound technician on a budget, these speakers will suffice - and will make you happy.

Great speaker, but these are more of a solid 250 watt speaker and amp combo in my opinion
5/5

These are excellent speakers, but you should be aware that the 1000-watt rating is merely a marketing ploy. We bought these to replace an old pair of Peavy Sp5Ti (250 watts each). They are basically just as loud and sound just as good or better across the spectrum while saving a ton of weight. These are used for wedding DJ work as well as larger neighborhood gatherings. I believe we had realistic expectations and are very pleased with our choice.

The most impressive speaker I've ever heard
5/5

You're looking for a speaker with a crisp, clean sound? And without having to break the bank? This is the one you've been looking for. The sound is crystal clear, with no distortion, and it is loud and long-lasting. It's a little heavy, but that's to be expected in this genre. It's a 15, to be precise. Must own!.

It's insanely loud! Because I was tired of the small Bluetooth speakers having almost no volume or bass, I wanted a speaker that I could use solely for aux hookup for extremely loud music
5/5

This was a great way to get the job done! Even at high volumes, the sound is extremely loud and crisp, and the bass is excellent, even when used alone. I would strongly suggest it.

It's ideal for the locker room of our college football team! We recently purchased one of these speakers for a college football locker room, and we are extremely pleased with it
5/5

These speakers are a tad on the loud side. I conducted extensive research on speakers in order to find one that would be suitable for our needs. We thought we'd need two, but just one worked perfectly, so we're going to buy two more for our weight room and mount them on the walls. The best value for money is electric vehicles.
