Not great.. can't help but give a rating of mediocre I am afraid :-(
The positives,
The material itself seems durable enough, the stitching seems OK, and its cheaper than the EV option.
The Negatives,
Its made in such a way that the lower last inch of the bottom front of the speaker is given absolutely ZERO protection and with the way these speakers are designed to be lifted.... this means that when you lift the speaker - the front of the speaker drags along the floor surface - anyone who knows these speakers will know exactly what I mean. After just one gig.... I regretted buying these speaker covers - my speakers are scratched already :-(
The covers fit is exceptionally tight indeed - excessively tight - almost leading one to believe that the covers had been designed to fit the speaker without the monitor feet fitted - so I removed the monitor feet of one speaker - and low and behold the speaker cover goes on quickly and easily with no difficulties surrounding getting the "gaps" over the monitor feet! Unfortunately I bought my 4 EV ZLX's purey as monitors so I need the feet. You might say this was a complete design oversight.
Notably its prudent to say that they are equally as difficult to get off the speaker, taking as much time to get you rolling at a gig as it does at packdown.
I do NOT recommend these covers at all and I have wasted about £100 on covers that will be getting replaced immediately, and I can't even get a refund on these as I have used them now :-(

Too tight
I unpacked one of these purchased in a bundle and could not fit it over the speaker.
Far too tight for any practical use.
Fairly thin material that does not look as if it would take any wear or do much more than keep dust of the speakers.
I recommend paying the extra for Genuine Ev covers or putting the cash towards a flight case.

Thomann Cover Pro EV ZLX 12
Far cheaper than EV's own cover. Not a lot of padding on it, but if you're like me and treat gear with care this shouldn't be an issue. If you're on the road you really should have a hard case and not a fabric cover, right? Specially if you have roadies doing the lifting.....

These covers are a reasonable alternative to the more expensive branded ones. They are a tight fit so it can be tricky to squeeze them onto the speaker. You have to line them up just right. The material is pretty strong so you don't have to worry about it tearing. There is no padding, but the covers do protect the speaker finish from scrapes while loading in and out.

very good quality cover for my EV speakers bthat are always out on the road as monitors, keeps them in good condition even when used out on the road gigging, preventing them from getting scratched or damaged when in transit.nice material, maybe for next time Thomann could put on a lid with a zip but cant complain about the value and quality of these for the good price, another high quality product bought from Thomannn

Only a dust covers and nothing more
This are only dust covers and nothing more. Doesn't protect speakers from getting demanged during transportation. Material is very thin. Need to be very carefull.
Fits good on speakers and you my acess both handles, but it is quite hard to put them on. It goes very tight.No pockets for cableds and etc.

Essential
Bought this as part of the bundle for my EV ZLX 12. A tough cover to protect what's valuable to you. Helps to keep your speaker looking clean and free from scuffs and scrapes that can happen during transport. Essential.

Great cover but a little tight fitting
Cover is excellent quality and feels strong, however it is a little tight fitting and takes some time to put on properly, hopefully it will loosen up with use

Speaker covers
These covers came bundled with my EV ZLX 12's and they do a fine job of protecting the speakers from the usual scuffs and scratches that are picked up when storing/moving the speakers around. The speakers get fairly light use (a couple of gigs per month). If they were to be used more frequently, I would invest in some padded covers to enhance protection. So far though, these have done a great job and overall I'm very happy with them.

Ok cheap cover.
Good cover for my Mackie speakers, as a cheaper option than the "official" cover, however it is very tight to fit over the speaker, so takes a little time to use. Not padded, so if a speaker was dropped with this on it would result in a little damage, unlike the padded covers. But great for saving a little cash!
