We are excited to share the story behind our collaboration with JBL Pro on the groundbreaking EON 500 series portable PA speakers. The EON 500 series represents a leap forward in portable sound technology. Our team at RKS Design worked closely with JBL Pro to enhance portability, ergonomics, and durability. By incorporating three strategically placed handles and eliminating hard edges, we ensured the speaker is easy to transport and handle without sacrificing the high-quality sound that JBL is known for. Using our Psycho-Aesthetics approach, we crafted a design that not only meets the technical demands of professional audio but also resonates deeply with users. The modern aesthetics, combined with the use of advanced materials, make the EON 500 series both a functional and visually striking product. Join us as we delve deeper into the design innovations and the impact of the EON 500 series on the future of portable PA systems. #innovation #design #humancentered #entrepreneurship #technology #uxui #psychoaesthetics #dmi #IDSA
