Jbl Eon 612 or Alto TS312

Looking for budget 12 inch powered speaker for use with my solo acoustic shows. I use a drum machine and live percussion as well. I own the alto TS 8 inch version and I like it. I can also get the JBL at relatively the same price as the alto. Which would you go with
 
I am not a Harmon hater ... I own a bunch of Soundcraft, BSS and a single Eon One Pro. Harmon hasn't done JBL many favors. Their repair record over the past several years has been not great. Parts unavailability too often.

I would probably buy the Alto or save for a QSC CP series.

I bought the Eon One Pro because it is battery powered. Mostly it is intended for outdoor rustic weddings and campfire jams... I could easily go busk with it a mic, looper, my bass and drum machine. If it does... it wasn't real expensive as sound company buys go.
