I'm sorry. Unfortunately, that was my initial impression too.

My Duo partner kept the replacement JBL EON One Pro he received after sending his first (Defective unit) back. We've been gigging his EON One Pro for our duo. (two vocals, and two acoustic guitars or I switch from acoustic guitar and play electric bass through it at reasonable dining establishment volumes.

So far we are achieving very useful volume levels for the places we perform where people are dining or conversing. Bass sounds great, but seems to hit a level of compression that makes it a bit mushy. Alternately, we've been gigging a Bose L1 Compact the same way for the past couple years, but we use a Behringer Xair mixer to expand with more channels and more features. In that regard, the Bose L1 Compact still delivers all we need and it has been reliable as can be.

Thanks to the JBL eon one PRO self destruction, the original JBL eon one owners don't feel scammed anymore.

Seems price going down to around US$700, may I ask how's the performance of this array audio system if I can handle the gain problems before?

I plan to put all music instrument (1 Acoustic guitar, Electric guitar, 1 Bass, 1 Keyboard, 1 Electric drum and 2 Vocal) enter to the mixer first (Consider the Roland HS-5 session mixer already own which for hear monitor) and then main output enter the JBL Eon One Pro. We usually use for small church worship and wedding gig. Wonder it will work or not? Any suggestion?

With that many instruments (especially the bass and drums) you would likely be much better served going through a powered speaker like a QSC k10.2 or even a k12.2 for the extra low end and power.
