Excellent versatile speaker
I wanted an allround speaker as a practice amp for singing, acoustic and electric guitar, bluetooth playback and the occosional jam session. And I love how this speaker facilitates all of that. For me that's the main thing that strikes me about this speaker it is so versatile.
1. Portability
The battery lasts ages, I charge about once a week even though every day for an hour. I just don't have to think about it. I notice that because of its portability I take it along everywhere where I need some extra sound level.
2. Connections
This is probably the best feature of all. It has 4 channels! I can sing duets with a friend, play guitar and have a backing track running. While controlling the level of each channel with the app. This is the main thing that made me choose this JBL above the Bose S1 Pro.
That said the phyisical controls are a bit limited, and I don't like the green ring ui around the pot meters its not clear enough what the current setting is. They should have gone with discrete leds from 1 -10 or something. All in all it's a minor thing and makes you use the app more.
3. Sound quality
The sound from the speaker is very neutral and requires some tweaking with the EQ to make it pop to your liking. Personally i put next to my Sonos speaker and tried to emulate the tone as much as possible. And the good thing is with this speaker you can do that, yes it takes a little time and fiddling, but you can get the sound you want and I love what I hear. I boosted the bass and treble.
So all in all a terrific all round speaker that has tons of features, can go plenty loud and puts all of it in small easy to use package.

Great guitar overall!
Great overall!
Light, good battery life, nice sound, loud enough, many inputs.
The effects are just OK.
The only con is the android app because it does not work in it's full potential with all android versions.

So good I have just now purchased a second one to keep my first company!
I have been using my lovely JBL eon to play for two Border Morris sides and with my Bridge Golden Tasman electro accoustic violin plus inputting two flutes and an accordion, the sound is very much like the original accoustic sound. To cover the requirements of a larger venue I have now purchased a second unit. I'm excited to try this out when it arrives.

Best option for busking or even karaoke session
This speaker is a beast. I know Bose fan boys will defend S1 Pro's place but this speaker checks many boxes. Multiple ins and outs, USB power outputs, app that can control it, deeper bass compared to S1 Pros, easy swappable battery.
I bought a Moukey mini mixer which can be powered via USB and velcroed it on the speaker. Basically I expanded the single Hi-Z line input of the Eon One Compact into 4 instrument line ins!

The speaker is very high quality. The battery works perfectly (12 hours). It is very convenient to use. Bluetooth works over long distances. A valuable purchase.
