The problem is, there's no way to connect a sub to the system and high pass the main speakers, if you are using the internal mixer. Without a high pass filter, you'll have the mains trying to produce deep bass along with the sub, which would be a sonic mess. These speakers are for doing simple gigs, at modest levels, in a very small package, nothing more.
Great comments guys. Per FMEng, maybe the best thing would be to add a second one, and have them on both sides, say 15 ft apart.
@SS Minnow When you posted: "Don't get me started.... Check...."Back in the day, I was a trial by fire type of audio guy. I learned the hard way but also had the opportunity to learn from some of the best. While honing my audio skill in the live environment, understanding the physics of sound became an essential. Running 5 monitor mixes from FOH required the understanding of how the vibe on stage meshed with what was happening in the mains. How to manipulate the audio structure of the venue, especially in small venues is an art, in my opinion. The smaller the venue, the more you have to know how to set up your PA creatively as to not block the path to the bathrooms or waitress station, etc... You then have to understand what the stage and house sound are doing when your full spectrum of your performance is on, as well as knowing what your EON system is capable of. Whether I did a single or multiple stage monitor mixes, either from side of stage or from FOH, I always went through my same routine of listening to each mix individually, then all the mixes on stage together, then the whole stage along with the house. I would do this with a common track, not 'check 1-2...',. It needs to be full range stuff. For me, Thomas Dolby did the trick. With both the House and Stage playing the same thing, I was able to hear/feel the entire system together and filter out things that were reflecting or resonating on stage. Sometimes, flipping the sidefills out of phase would clear things up just like that. Other times not so much. SOrry for the babble. I have had a few green beers. Bottom line is that it will not the same at every gig so.... Don't get me started.... Check....

Did you mean Check, one, two OR I've had enough green beer; Please bring my check!
Toodleoo!

A sub in your hand beats a sub on a stand, especially when you're hungry.I’m pretty sure I was officially out of green beer at the time... Cheers!
That is right up there with "A bad day giggin' is better than a good day in prison".... FYI- Be shure to check your state and local 'Stand Your Sub' laws, as you do not want to catch an unlawful resonation violation. -30db in the hole....
Actually ... not a good idea, because you will be far out of time alignment between the sub and rest of system.If you want to reduce the sound pressure of the sub against your (the performer's) ears, my first thought would be to put it in the middle of the audience ... they will hear/feel it best, and their bodies will absorb some of the waves so you don't have to take the brunt of them. You can probably also turn down the gain some as well.
IEMs also help by blocking acoustic energy to your eardrums. But to hear or converse with the audience, you will likely need an ambience mic that you toggle off when playing and on when bantering or taking requests.The EON One Pro has an integrated bass module and its own mixer built in. The specs claim it goes down to 37 Hz (-10 dB) which is reasonably deep without a sub.

Perhaps a better approach for your tinnitus would be to get musician's ear plugs. There are custom molded ear plugs that attenuate sound with a controlled, flat spectrum, so you can still hear accurately. Another idea would be to use in-ear monitors, so you can adjust the volume of what you hear without affecting the sound from the mains.
You say that now....You just turn the delay knob to negative numbers
