Fixing this JBL speaker's one STUPID design flaw
Added 2025-08-18 22:17:02 +0000 UTCI picked up a JBL EON One Compact, just to find that it has a glaring design flaw. Turns out fixing it is not only free...but pretty easy?!

Great video! I don't have a use for anything like that but I appreciated the repair walk thru and the detective story side quests to figure out which company made the drivers. Watching this video, I feel like I have learned enough to repair/restore one of these if one were to cross my path in the future. Keep up the great work!

My car has a jBL sound system and I've always been super impressed by it, other than that, I can't think of any JBL products I've owned... but now I know if I need a PA/party speaker, that's not a bad unit!
