I just bought two yxl 15p’s. I was told that they would blow a JBL partybox 310 out of the water. But honestly the JBL partybox is almost better…. The yxl is maybe a bit louder outdoors but I’m very surprised that they don’t put the partybox to shame. Little disappointing but is what it is. Should I pair the two yxl’s with a sub? I just can’t understand how that little partybox has better bass and sound than a big pa speaker with a 15” woofer.
The Rockville 8" speaker bag fits the Yorkville Mobile 8 perfectly and is a well padded bag. Put a piece of thick cardboard on the side and you eliminate the possibility of accidentally hitting the power button.
I just bought the 10 inch version as a combination floor monitor with my band, music playback for my family, and for singing and playing guitar at small venues. I love the speaker. Easy to use and sounds good.
I've been using this with Djay Pro since the 5.2 update, works flawlessly. I also have the Innofader installed, this is really all you need. Love using this with my iPad Pro too.
Bro, TRUST me the build quality of the One is TRASH. It's not the same Made in USA Rane. They are skimping out on motherboard quality, EQ pot quality, upfaders, galvanized screws on the faceplate, the effect paddles deserve a lawsuit they're so flawed from an engineering level, etc. On my second one in two years and I baby the shit out of it and it still breaks and glitches out. Not professional grade at all
Your clipping test set up the JBL to fail. You had the bass boost maxed out so of course it would start clipping much earlier. Maybe you need to add a note card to this part of the video because it's a little misleading. The rest of the video is great and has sent me searching to do my own test to compare these two side by side.
The fact that the subwoofer doesn't go over a certain range makes this system great for indoor and small private parties so that the neighbors aren't disturbed. For outdoor events, let's just add an additional subwoofer and it is done.
Dj nines i got a question 🤔 if you had to make a one time purchase for the long haul would you choose the ddj rev 5 over the Hercules T7? I come from the days of turntables so been there and done that on moving platters, i probably want be buying another controller so which one would you choose?
I have a set of Yorkville EXM 8 speakers and just bought a set of Yorkville YXL 15 P Speakers and a small 6 channel mixer ..........i plug my equipment into the mixer ...then run 2 lines to the inputs on my EXM 8 Speakers on both right and left .... then out of the EXM 8s I run 2 lines to the inputs on my YXL 15Ps on both left and right sides.......set up like this i have full control over the highs and the thundering bass on the on my YXL 15Ps by ajusting the tone and volume on my EXM 8s as well as adjusting tone and volume on my mixer .....WOW WHAT AN AWESOME SOUND ... you sure don't need subs with this set up ... What awesome power I have ....I just did an outside concert with OVER 300 people this afternoon and the music was loud and clear you could feel the bass right in the floor on the outside huge wooden dance floor..........I have been doing music shows for years ....but this is the best sounding medium power set up I ever used in my life...........
My band played through two of these last weekend. 4 piece. 2 vocal mics. 1 cajon mic. Violin, guitar and bass. It was an outdoor gig at the Great Glebe Garage Sale in Ottawa. And it rocked. I was utterly shocked by the low end response out of two of these. I can only imagine with the bass bin. Btw..used a battery powered FLOW 8 mixer (which is an exceptional piece of kit)
Why is it that Hercules controller's are always considered entry-level. That's BS. Just because more affordable doesn't mean it's entry-level. Like 90% of the features are the same. The T7 is not the first Hercules controller to have XLR, so I don't know why that surprises you. The average DJ will probably not use the majority of the features on either of them anyway. But thanks for the video though. It was very informative.
So you said that Hercules controllers are always considered entry-level right? I guess I’m not the only one that’s mentioned this then? Don’t get me wrong it’s a great controller but if you already have a Rane one or a Pioneer rev 7 and then you get the Hercules T7? You’ll know exactly what I’m saying. Cheers
Good question! The build quality on the T7 is better although they are both plastic. The Rev1 is lighter and a little more portable. The Rev1 is also USB powered if that is a plus for you. They both have effects paddles which is a plus. I like the dedicated stems buttons on the T7 the most. I hope that helps.
Thanks for the video. I own a T7, modded it with the Innofader and vinyls from 12in Skinz. I don't DJ for a living, so this is fine. I use it with Virtual DJ. I'm happy with it. Love the stem buttons for creativity, and the loop knob for roll type adjustment. Cheers
Lol but I mixed like a pro with T7 with innofader upgrade.... CLOSEST TO 1200s!!! Its an amazing controller...this over rane one or rev7..never used beatmatch...when youre mixing by ear for 27 years ...the only flaw is the controller needs to be pluggged to the laptop for the controller to be active. The rest is great. Stem is amazing with t7. I mixed n blends quick most of my gigs ...the response is flawless...so forget about the entry crap controller...this is the best ..
@@good-or-evil I'm thinking about getting it myself and other than the weight of it is it really that far off from the rane one 🤔 and are you satisfied with the Hercules t7 over the rev5? Please let me know your opinion 🙏🏾
@@ignoranceisnotatrend4669 why rev5 and not rane four? The difference is motorized or NOT ... Id pick motorized platters.. T7 or rane one. Ive never tried rev5 nor rane one tbh. If not moving platters I suggest rane four 4 channels.
@@ignoranceisnotatrend4669 ive been using t7 for 5 months and I made dope mixes.i love it!!! Other djs love to say t7 is entry level....im like hell nawww... I make it sound to a professional level 😅.hercules came a long way.. I watched alot.of.reviews before I purchase this t7. If t7 was 2000$ ..they would say hercules came out with a high end t7 lol all jokes aside. Everything is great it just built cheaper cuz its lighter. So far so good. Get 12inchskinz innofader replacement if u get the t7
I also wanted to look at the comparison. In the meantime, I will show my amateur video about how Everse 8 is used in practice in urban street performances. I'll ask you a question at the same time ! Maybe someone knows - Which of the 8-inch or 6.5-inch battery-powered speakers can produce sounds in such an urban area near or at a great distance. Like, for example, Everse 8 in the street version? When a backing vocalist with a speaker is both nearby and from afar, his music and voice can be clearly heard at a distance of 200 meters and even further in the fifth minute of this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yoybdtGrRm4.html What else could be similar to Everse 8? There is no need for the compact Jbl EON One. I have been using it for 3 years and have already sold it because it is twice as weak in volume as Everse 8. You can hear it clearly here in the short 1.5 minute story ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OMPkPStMgo4.html The speaker should be loud, compact and lightweight so that the musician can transport it on a special trolley (this is also seen in the video). Will the Bose S1 Pro Plus be enough on such a city street ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uJeYJNi0bb8.html Where is another musician playing guitar and singing in Everse 8? Thank you in advance!
What I love about your reviews, is the fact that you take them to the real world usage with each review. I truly appreciate your efforts. I gave a listen at L&M and it sounds really good. So I might go with 2 of these for my Mobile DJ business
I am look for a speaker for my rebounding classes. There are normally around 20 people in a class. I need my voice to be clear so clients can hear my instructions but I also need the music to be loud, clear and motivating without sounding noisy. Would you recommend this for my application. My concern is that you said that you were going to stick to your point source speakers (I don't know what this means) so maybe I should be getting point source speakers too.
Point source speakers are the traditional box type speakers that mount on top of speaker stands. The Hk is column array design. One of these polar 12s would definitely work for a 20 person class. Let me know what you end up getting. Thanks for the comment and goodluck!
I own a Rane One and have had both editions of the Rane 12’s. I ordered a T7 back in January and I couldn’t get rid of that thing quick enough. The T7 is a joke of a controller, might be perfect for a beginner DJ. What he’s not mentioning is the details of how both feel. The T7 is plastic and feels like a toy while the Rane One is built like a tank and damn near indestructible. The Rane One is heavy but it’s better than carrying 2 Rane 12’s and a mixer or 2 Technic 1200’s. It’s heavy but it’s a much better controller. A real DJ isn’t complaining about how heavy it is. The T7 doesn’t do backspins very well, the pads don’t feel good at all, it obviously doesn’t come with Serato DJ Pro unlocked. The mic sounds like crap but I use an external mixer anyway. There just isn’t a comparison between the 2. There’s a reason why it’s not the same price as the Rane. The faders are trash. I know you can upgrade but why put such crappy faders from the factory? The stems buttons are nice and that’s about it. The Rane beats the T7 in every category X’s 10. Might be good for bedroom DJ but if you gig a lot I’d go for the Rane One. It’s proven! And I’m not waiting for a belt to pop off in the future on the T7. I just order a Rev-5 for my second controller.
Right out of the box the platters are definitely stiff. It takes a few times playing on it to actually break it in but i agree that the Rane one is far superior in pretty much every way. Hence the higher price tag too
I really like the speaker and its my go-to rental speaker but I wouldn't buy one. I did and it died within the year (crazy issue with the inputs cutting out the entire low end intermittently)
How’s this speaker working for you now?? I bought 2 when they first came out and tried it at some ceremonies and it failed on me a time or two. But I still like them and use them for casual settings.
It still works well for me. I haven't used it in a while though. You definitely need to use this with the app to get the most out of it. Thanks for chiming in bro!
Great review! Thanks. I think I'll try them out now. Was debating getting these or Maui 5 go. Did you use a separate sub at these events, or just 2 columns?
Thanks 9 for given your props to the t7, i bought the t7 for two reason,spinning platters and lighter,i own the ns7 ll and my tank is heavy a beast for keeper,but i must say,my t7 is also a keeper.your reviews on the t7 i beleive to be the honest review.
Do you feel like it is as good for scratching as the NS7? I've been trying to find a good controller that feels like vinyl for scratching and came across the Hercules.
