Reverend Rhythm Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 My EV ZLX-15P came in today, so I guess I've "joined the club"! From my limited experience, the "Live" and "Monitor" settings are necessary if you place the speaker on the floor. It sounds great in my house at a low level. I'll try it in a band situation tomorrow night. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Rhythm Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 This thang is clear and transparent! The band went wild for it. For a rehearsal we didn't have monitors, so we ran the lead vocal and SK-1 through it. No mixer. It worked like a charm! David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyS Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I'm totally pleased with mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RABid Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Looking forward to getting mine. Ordered it from Pro Audio, "used". I have bought EV's from them before that were classified as used and as far as I could tell, they just open the box, the seal it back up. They always seem to be in perfect shape.

Markay Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Well if price paid is the measure I paid the equivalent of $US 500 for mine, lowest price available where I am. Thats the price we pay for living in a country that international retailers call treasure island.

ShadowMan Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I $319 for mine and will be ordering a second one. I'm quite happy with it and have relegated my Alto TS10's to occasional monitor wedge use. But to be completely honest, while the EV is much more powerful it also has a lot more bass emphasis - regardless of the setting. The Altos have a much flatter response, to my ears.

Reverend Rhythm Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Our Sat. gig was through a EV EV ZLX-15p system. A EV ZLX-15p and an EV powered sub on each side, with 4 channels of EV ZLX-15ps for the monitors. It was clear! A pleasure to play through. Of course, I still used my new EV ZLX-15p to reinforce my keyboard sound. Not loud, but just a little support. I can hear my keyboards a lot better now. This has really improved my playing experience. Thanks to all the forum members that told me to dump the Roland Keyboard Amp and get the EV ZLX-15P.

zephonic Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I have a weird thing with this speaker, recorded music and my FantomX7 sound fine on it, but the NordPiano's acoustics don't! They sound fine on my studio monitors and even on the little Behringer, but the acoustic pianos and ZLX don't get along somehow...they sound harsh and cold. Contemplating whether to return them, I still have a week... On a different note, does anybody where the x-over point is? It is not in the literature. gear list.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
