Jbl Eon G2 15

I am coming around ( returning after trying other amps ) to the eon 15 with my passive J , for jazz/ fusion gigs - lower volumes than many use here
I've run a Boss 7 band in front of the Eon "mixer" to correct the impedance mismatch and to gain some tone flexibility .
I don't understand impedance esp in terms of what mixers - pedals eq etc., are higher quality than the Boss ( I've found them not the most reliable ) and which are ideally suited to correcting the impedance mismatch.
Don't say it's a bad idea to use a PA speaker for bass until you try it.
Since eon cuts off at around 65 hz I'm thinking of trying two or adding a sub.
There is an authenticity to the tone with this pwrd pa speaker - I just can deny it.
But by itself it severely limited the tone due to ( I'm told ) the impedance issue

What would be better than the Boss pedal ?
Thank you

You'd probably be better with more of a preamp pedal like Paradriver or the 3LeafAudio Enabler.
