1934—EV invents the hum-
bucking coil for microphones
(still a standard almost 70 years
later).
1940s—EV introduces noise
cancellation to microphones;
revolutionizes tank and aircraft
communications.
1954—EV introduces Variable-
D®microphone technology, a
means of eliminating the up-
close bass boost of convention-
al, single-D directional micro-
phones—for high vocal intelli-
gibility under the typical vary-
ing conditions of use in church-
es and meeting rooms.
1963—EV receives an award
from the Academy of Motion
Picture Arts and Sciences for
the development of a shotgun
microphone—the 642 Cardiline®
—which significantly advances
the quality of sound on film.
1974—EV develops constant-
directivity (CD) horns. For the
first time, a loudspeaker main-
tains its rated coverage angles
over a wide frequency range,
for significantly more uniform
sound quality and higher
intelligibility throughout the
audience.
Live For Sound
Founded in 1927 as a microphone company,
Electro-Voice®has grown into one of today’s
dominant worldwide forces in design and man-
ufacturing of top-quality products for broadcast,
touring sound, permanently installed sound
reinforcement and music playback systems.
Recognized the world over as a leader in audio
technology, EV®is ubiquitous in performing arts
centers, sport facilities, houses of worship, cine-
mas, dance clubs, transportation centers, theaters,
and, of course, live music.
EV’s reputation for providing superior audio
products and dedication to innovation continues
today. Whether EV microphones, loudspeakers
systems, amplifiers or signal processors, the EV
solution is always step up in performance and
reliability. EV, a product brand of Telex Com-
munications, Inc., shares technology with other
Telex product brands: Dynacord®, Klark-Teknik®,
Midas®, RTS®, and TELEX®.
1986—EV revolutionizes concert
sound reinforcement by introducing
Manifold Technology®.In each of
four bandpasses covering the entire
frequency range, the output of four
loudspeakers is flawlessly combined –
or “manifolded”– into a single horn
or low-frequency enclosure. The
result is – in a physical package a
fraction of the size of conventional
concert rigs – four times the acoustic
output without the drastically
uneven coverage of multiple acoustic
sources “stacked” for moreoutput.
1990s—EV invents
RMDtechnology
(Ring-Mode Decou-
pling), a revolution-
ary anodyne to son-
ic distortion and
coloration. Speaker
system resolution
and clarity increases
by minimizing fun-
damental resonant
frequencies.
2000—EV invents VOBtechno-
logy (Vocal-Optimized Bass™), an
innovative mechanical design that
significantly reduces proximity
effect, allowing for greater vocal
intelligibility and instrumental clari-
ty. EV also invents ClearScan, a
revolutionary innovation in wireless
technologies that enables automat-
ic, frequency agile selection of the
best of ten UHF channels.
2001/2002—EV intro-
duces RACE technology
(Realtime Acoustic Clus-
ter Editor), a synergetic
concept of correlating
digital crossover and filter
design
with real world
loudspeaker
behavior.
2003/2004—IRIS
(Intelligent Remote &
Integrated Supervision)
becomes the new soft-
ware platform to control
&monitor complex audio
systems, including signal
processing, amplifiers and
loudspeakers in realtime.

EVI Vari Intense®
EVI-28
Two-way, full-range loudspeaker
Vented LF enclosure
1.25" voice coil (titanium diaphragm) HF
• PROTM Driver protection circuit
Time PathTM phasing plug
Multi-angled housing
Stacked, frequency-shaded woofers maintain
vertical coverage angle down to 500 Hz with 120°
(typical 180°); ideal for reverberant rooms
Five 3/8"-16 hanging points
Electro-Voice®sunique EVI Vari Intense®(VI) speakers are
engineered to eliminate the need for additional long-throw
horns or delayed sources in many rooms. The EVI Vari
Intense®series provides an economical solution for permanent
installations that require coverage over a rectangular area. In
atypical room, the distance from the loudspeaker to the last
row is two or more times that to the front row, resulting in a
substantial loss in level and intelligibility at the rear. The VI
horn delivers 6 to 8 dB more SPL to the back of the room,
overcoming the level loss without resorting to the expense
and complexity of additional speaker systems or components.
The problem is old; EV®ssolution is new. EVI is perfect for
conference centers, houses of worship, halls, and other ven-
ues where evenly distributed SPL is essential. EVI systems are
made of 18 mm 13-ply birch plywood (EVI 28: 12 mm 9-ply),
texture-painted with a powder-coated metal grille.
Asimple 3-2-1 rule-of-thumb applies for determining EVI
coverage patterns: The pattern’s width will equal twice the
height of the room, and the pattern’s length will equal three
times the height. See the illustration below.

Length = 3H

FRX+ & FRX+PI-Systems
FRX+ Series loudspeakers are designed for applications in
critical reverberant spaces where excellent directivity control
is mandatory. Typical small-sized speaker systems are not
able to maintain their rated coverage angles below 2000 Hz.
Their wide beamwidth in the low midband is accompanied
by serious degradation of speech intelligibility and clarity of
music signals in such hostile environments.
EV´s FRX+ systems are troubleshooters concerning these
problems, providing excellent wideband directivity control.
The all-horn-loaded, coaxial design comes up with sufficient
radiation surface to enable narrow coverage angles down to
250 Hz at moderate cabinet sizes.
FRX+ cabinets are texture-painted, 7-ply plywood with
powder-coated steel grille backed with foam.
For outdoor purposes, FRX+ PI models are equipped with
weatherized woofers, powder-coated stainless-steel grilles
backed with multilayer foam and covered glandnut input
panels.

MH-Series Stadium Horns
MH-Series stadium horns are designed for large-scale sta-
diums and arenas where high-fidelity sound and directivity
control from low mid-bass frequencies and below are
absolutely essential. In 1974, EV pioneered the concepts of
constant directivity (horn angles that are constant with fre-
quency) and Manifold®technology (which combines the
outputs of multiple transducers into one source). Large-
format MH horns incorporate both in several horn/
driver systems. Medium-format MH horns are excellent
for short/medium throw applications or as infills for large-
format MH-horns.

PLASMA P1 & P2
PLASMA™ P1 Plasma P1's compact, ergonomically
designed enclosure houses an EVX155RMD, Kevlar™-rein-
forced 15” LF transducer driven by a 4” voicecoil for well-
defined transients and articulate vocals at all SPLs. The EV
ND-6 neodymium HF compression driver with a 3” voicecoil
coupled to an EV 80° x 55° horn provides extended HF
response with very low distortion. A two-channel class-H
amplifier provides a total of 700 watts of power but requires
NO fan, permitting quiet operation, low maintenance, and
long-term reliability. Coupled with signal processing for lin-
ear acoustic response, Plasma P1 delivers dynamic linearity
to very high SPLs. Equipped with three L-track attachment
points, Plasma can also be used with its proprietary PSA-V™
(Plasma Strong-Arm-Mount-Vertical) mounting system for
easy flying and precise aiming. The multi-angle enclosure is
available in left and right versions, thus allowing a 55° mon-
itor angle onstage and mirror-image monitoring.
PLASMA™ P2 Plasma P2 represents a new generation of
high-powered compact subwoofers. Designed to extend the
very low frequency response of Plasma P1, it uses a class
H-design amplifier driving an EVX180B 18” woofer. The
patented LPN™ (Low-Pass-Notch) filter compensates for
transient distortion in dynamic signals (such as kickdrums) to
achieve a higher acoustic output and more punch than
expected from such a compact enclosure.

QRx Series
EV’s compact QRx Series loudspeakers have become the
go-to systems for contractors, regional sound companies,
and anyone who wants to step up to high-end pro audio
without blowing the budget. With integrated L-track rig-
ging points on top and bottom, the QRx cabinets are easy
tofly. The unique, asymmetrical, fully rotatable horn pro-
vides a 15-degree down angle to ensure HF coverage
where needed, while avoiding acoustic spill. EV’s power-
house DH7 large-format driver (3” voicecoil, 1.4” exit)
provides the HF engine, while a selection of EV’s DL and
EVX woofers anchor the LF and sub frequencies. EV’s
combination of high-level components and unique design
make the QRx Series one of the best and most versatile
values in the industry.

Sharing an enclosure with it's "big brother" the ZX5, the
ZX4 is designed mainly for portable applications such as
performing artist, musicians and small bands. It benefits
from the same large format EV horn design that provides
better throw and better intelligibility then small format
horn, which can only control the higher frequencies, but
not the entire vocal range.

EV’s Sx Series loudspeakers have been the industry stan-
dard for lightweight, high-performance loudspeakers, a
standard against which all others are measured. Their ver-
satility is reinforced by their rich portfolio of accessories,
from wall-mount and array brackets to monitor feet and
transport bags. The Sx series has powered everything
from local wedding bands to the clogs of “Riverdance” to
football games at Notre Dame Stadium, and the new
Sx600 dominated the stadiums at the 2004 Olympic
Summer Games in Athens, Greece.

Xi-Series
Xi-Series™ brings premium touring-quality sound into
installation. Inspired by the features of EV´s acclaimed
X-Array™ touring systems, the Xi-Series™ incorporates a
potent combination of very-high-output and ultra-linear
short-, medium- and long-throw systems, in two-way,
three-way and four-way configurations. Xi-Series™ incorpo-
rates the acoustical advantage of EV´s unique Ring-Mode
Decoupling (RMD™) and features HP horns to secure excel-
lent directivity control and even coverage.
Aunique feature of the three-way systems is Vertical Beam
Shaping (VBS). The three-way systems may be in 2-element
or 3-element configuration to extend the vertical coverage-
angle control to as low as 125 Hz, well below that permitted
by the mid-bass horn alone (which typically has a band fre-
quency of 800 Hz): Unprecedented performance in a one-
box system!
To achieve sound performance without compromises, Xi-
Series™ is designed for multi-way active operation, except
Xi-1082 which contains a passive crossover network.

X-Array
X-Array™ speaker systems provide world-class performance
and flexibility for the ultimate in concert touring systems. It
incorporates unique “one-man“ rigging and neodymium
magnets for very large arrays.
The X-Array™ X-Series™ represents important advance-
ments in concert-sound reinforcement technology. Design
goals called for the highest acoustic output capability with
the highest fidelity in relatively lightweight, compact enclo-
sures that were easy to array. The individual systems, drivers,
horns, enclosures, rigging hardware and system configura-
tions were designed from the ground up specifically for this
high-performance application. For easier handling, special
speaker dollies are available.
RMD™ X-Array™’s design process also resulted in the
development of EV’s most ingenious acoustic technologies,
RMD™. RMD™ gives X-Array™ unprecedented acoustic
output and excellent directivity control.EV´s traditional top-
down development strategy ensured the incorporation of
this essential acoustic advantage into other EV products.
Rigging for Large Arrays:unique rear-hinge system for
fast, easy and secure rigging. A 64-box hang goes up or
down in 30 minutes. Front rigging straps control vertical
aiming, rear fixed hinge makes tilting easy. Mating position-
ing recesses on cabinet tops and bottoms help to assemble
and disassemble an array on the ground, a layer at a time. A
detailed flying manual and structural ratings handbook is
available. The X-Array™ one-person rigging hardware has
earned German TÜV approval.
Neodymium magnetics: for lighter weight and maximum
acoustic output. All 12-inch mid-bass transducers are the
ND12A, for a 3-dB average increase in output. Neodymium
in the ND6-16 compression driver increases output in the
upper octaves. The ND6-16 driver features a 3” titanium
diaphragm.
Amping and Controller: X-Array™ is powered by EV´s
world-famous Precision Series™ amplifiers and controlled by
Klark Teknik DN9848 digital 4-in/8-out controller, DSP con-
trolled Precision Series amplifiers, or the Electro-Voice Dx38
for flexible and easy configurations.
X-Array™ is constructed from 13-ply birch plywood fin-
ished in black textured paint and protected by a powder-
coated steel front grille backed with foam.

X-Line
Development of the new EV®X-Line™ system was driven by
the need for a high-level concert touring enclosure that com-
bines the sonic impact and vocal intelligibility of the
renowned X-Array™ system with the uniform, predictable
coverage that only a line-array configuration can deliver. The
EVengineering team set out to develop the next generation
of line-array systems, combining their years of experience in
the development of X-Array™ with the absolute latest state-
of-the-art technologies. As a matter of course, X-Line™ fea-
tures the essential acoustical advantage of RMD™.
The X-Line™ system was designed to provide wide horizon-
tal dispersion (90 degrees) from a single vertical line array
while providing exceptionally coherent wavefront summing
in the vertical plane. At the heart of X-Line™ is a proprietary
high-frequency wavefront alignment and summation device
the Hydra™ – that provides planar and time-coherent
signal addition. The broad bandwidth vertical planar sum-
ming provides uniform sound field distribution throughout
the listening area.
Stereo imaging is improved by the X-Line™´s full-bandwidth
mid-bass loading. Extended low-frequency polar control pro-
duces more uniform power response, further enhancing over-
all system intelligibility.The overall power response of the X-
Line™ is very uniform across a wide frequency spectrum, thus
enabling the system´s very musical sonic character.
If every performance space conformed to the same acoustic
ideal, any linear loudspeaker array would suffice. But every
arena, concert hall, and stadium is a unique space, and the
one-box, one-dimensional design of most linear arrays just
can´t adapt. X-Line™ is different. X-Line™ combines the
power and vocal clarity of the X-Array™ with a versatile,
fully configurable linear array design, plus the efficiency of
one-person rigging.
X-Line™ lets you stack Xvls enclosures at the top of an array
for long throw with a 90° horizontal included angle,
followed by Xvlt enclosures for the shorter throw and 120°
horizontal coverage needed at the J-curve of the array.
Completing the X-Line™ system areXsub subwoofers that
can be flown next to the main array or ground stacked.
X-Line™ is made of 13-ply birch plywood with structural
aluminum reinforcement and is finished with a rugged
foam-backed steel grille to protect the drivers. A user guide
with detailed specifications is available on request. Electro-
Voice recommends using the Klark Teknik DN9848 or EV’s
Dx38 as the system controller, along with EV®P3000 power
amplifiers. P3000RL or TourGrade DSP-controlled amplifiers
provide the ultimate solution in control throught IRIS-Net™.

This cabinet is the main component in a XLC line array.
Starting with a minimum of four cabinets, a reasonable array
size uses six to eight boxes, up to a maximum of 16 for larger
arenas. The three-way axis-asymmetric design includes a single
EV DL-12 low-frequency/mid-bass woofer optimized for this
cabinet. Two 6.5” DVN2065 horn-loaded drivers in a vertical
array cover the mid-frequency bandpass.
The XLC127DVX utilizes two ND6 (3” voice-coil) neodymium
compression drivers loaded on two Hydra™ plane wave gener-
ators. With a horizontal coverage of 120°, the XLC system
accurately covers wide areas while maintaining excellent imag-
ing and lobe-free coverage. This cabinet is also available with
dedicated rigging for fixed installations as XLCi 127DVX.

Subwoofer
If subwoofers shall be integrated in the array,or flown sepa-
rately, XLC offers two options. The XLC118 is a direct radiating
18" sub using the EVX180B woofer. The XLC215 has the exact
same dimensions, but utilizes two of EV's latest15-inch DVX-
woofers, the DVX3150. Flying subwoofers benefits in a more
even front-to- back SPL distribution. Both cabinets arealso
available as i-versions for installations.

X–Line Very Compact
Designed for most demanding audio applications that
require the most compact format, X-Line Very Compact
offers a unrivaled combination of output capability, sonic
performance and size. Combined with the large amount of
accessories like coupler-grids, ground-stack kit and even
adapter grid to the bigger XLC, XLVC is a preferred choice
for concert applications as well as installations. While
expectations of audio performance in terms of SPL, natu-
ral response and uniform coverage have expanded,
demand for smaller and lighter sound systems has
increased. X-Line Very compact offers the best of both
worlds: XLD systems are capable of producing concert SPL
levels on full bandwidth in small to medium sized venues.
Smaller XLE-systems are ideal for critical audio require-
ments where overall cluster size is highest priority.

EV’s Hydra™ used in X-Line and XLC has an overall height of
7-inches (17.5cm). In order to maintain the extraordinary HF
response, a new 4-inch (10cm) Hydra was developed to
match the DVN2080 8-inch woofer. Each of the two Hydras
is driven by the new ND2S, a 2” neodymium compression
driver. A single waveguide is fed with the plane wave from
the hydras resulting in wide bandwidth, even horizontal cov-
erage, and predictable vertical coverage.

Subwoofers offer a variety of low-frequency solutions for
general fixed installation or additional LF supplementation in
existing installations. Low-frequency systems have f3s (the
point at which response is -3 dB down) as low as 40 Hz. In
general, response below 40 Hz is required for theatrical
effects, full reproduction of pipe organs, and some special
effects in contemporary music such as synthesizers and
down-tuned bass guitars. The TL 880D is especially suited
for this special type of application.
Note: TL subwoofers have unprotected fronts and woofers,
and should be used in inaccessible areas only.

The UW 30 represents a departure from conventional designs
of underwater sound sources. Its unique, patented design uses
the case´s structural enclosure as the sound transducer. Under-
water speakers are required equipment for many activities in
commercial, luxury resort pools and synchronized swimming
events or instructions in Olympic pools. They are used for
water ballets and similar water shows. UW 30 has a high-
fidelity sound with low distortion, and the effect of music
played underwater through it is truly enchanting.
The outer case of UW 30 is made of high-impact ABS and is
pool-blue in color. All internal components are sealed inside
the speaker through a “hot-melt” process, allowing it to be
used in fresh- or salt-water pools or ocean enviroments.
Sound dispersion is up to 30 x 30 feet (10 x 10 m) under
water. Operating depth is up to 10 feet (3 m), with a recom-
mended depth of 4 feet (1.2 m). Note: For overload protec-
tion, install a 25-ohm, 20-watt resistor in parallel with a 1.5-
amp, fast-blowing fuse in series with the speaker.

EV®s S-40 produces maximum frequency response with an
extended bass response. The sensitivity, therefore, is slightly
less than with a regularly tuned box. The S-40 is made of
black or white high-impact polystyrene structural foam pro-
tected with a full-size, matching front grille.

Components
EV component woofers are high-efficiency designs highly
refined from years of development and field experience.
They employ extended-length voice coils for high-impact
reproduction of dynamic low-frequency program. All
woofers feature proprietary heat-transfer systems for
unmatched power capacity and reliability. Kevlar®-fiber-
composite cones are used to provide structural strength to
resist collapse during explosive dynamic peaks and to pro-
vide internal mechanical damping to minimize resonances
that can change the character of the sound at high levels. DL
and EVX woofers are made of cast aluminium frames with
push terminals, and all feature Ring-Mode Decoupling™
(RMD™) except for the DL18MT and the EVX180B.

Compression Drivers
Electro-Voice is one of a handful of professional audio com-
panies that can design high-performance compression driv-
ers. Compression drivers are the most difficult audio trans-
ducers to design. Their unique requirements call for
ultraprecise tolerances, state-of-the-art modeling routines,
and exceptionally talented engineering expertise. Manufac-
turing techniques are frequently pushed to process limits,
and materials are formed and stabilized with cutting-edge
systems and controls. Each EV compression driver’s parame-
ters are tightly controlled to ensure world-class performance,
thus putting the drivers at the top of their class in every
respect.

The HP horn series is a refinement of the concept of “con-
stant directivity,” which, in 1974, EV was the first to intro-
duce. For the first time, horn coverage angles were truly
uniform over a wide frequency range. In the HP series,
unique beamwidth-control vanes within the horn throat
form a waveguide that eliminates the narrowing of cover-
age angle – beaming – that occurs in other 2-inch-throat
horns. EV’s patented Transplanar™ design provides excep-
tionally smooth frequency response. HP horns or variants
thereof are used throughout the EV speaker system lines.
Each HP horn features an integral die-cast metal throat
encapsulated in the fiberglass sidewalls. This unitized con-
struction provides very high strength and low weight.

and configuration is either via the front panel or PC via RS-
232, MIDI or RS-485 bus for networking.
Dx38 is a 2-in/4-out controller with a “virtual” third input
source. It has a mono sum of both input channels to maxi-
mize flexibility. Two configuration modes allow clearer han-
dling for different qualified users. 30 user memories and 50
factory presets can be managed.

RACE Software
RACE is a professional audio tool to generate presets for
speaker systems. In addition to the clear display of all used
filters, delay and level settings, each output can be assigned
with the acoustic data (phase and frequency response) of
the individual speaker component.
This pure speaker data has been measured in free space.
RACE then calculates the complex summation of all used fil-
ters, level and delay settings applied to these components.
Thus the display on the screen is not only the electrical filter
response but, for the first time, the actual true acoustic
response of the component! Any change of parameter val-
ues is visible and audible in real time.
An additional tool is the SPL dispersion window for lower
frequencies. Presets can even be prepared off-line in ad-
vance and need only a little tweaking once speakers are
in place.
RACE enables engineers to seamlessly integrate room influ-
ence, speaker positioning and parameter settings and a
RACE Processed Preset is a guarantee for a solid, accurate
basis from which to begin system tuning. EV is supplying
these presets for all current EV speaker systems, even if the
needed combination is not part of the 50-factory preset of
the Dx38.

RACE
Software for Dx38
The acoustical response of Xi1183/64 plus Xi2181
(4-way) using the big Bode-Plot. Any change of
parameters like level, filter or delays is displayed
immediately. Even very complex array settings can be
tuned simply and accurately.
Overall Frequency Response
The signal flow diagram provides a clear overview of all
available parameters. Immediately after the input metering
there are five master equalizers per input available. Each of
these filters can be set as hi- or lo-pass (6dB/12dB-Peaking),
hi- or lo-shelf (6/12dB) or as a fully parametric eq. Each acti-
vated filter is signaled by a green LED symbol.
Each input, or the sum of both inputs, can be delayed sepa-
rately up to 900ms with the master delay. The fully flexible
routing allows each input as well as the sum to be routed to
any of the four outputs. Four filters per output are available
with same filter functions as the master eq. In addition, an
all-pass filter for phase corrections can be selected. The
x-over section provides a hi- and a lo-pass-filter per channel
and an output delay for alignment. The dynamics sections
with independent compressor and limiter can be used for
speaker protection.
The output meter display works like the whole editor in real-
time. Level control and mute are available for each channel.
All of these parameters on the Dx38 can easily be edited via
the front control panel without using a PC. Once you try
RACE however, you may never want to work without it!

AC One Analog Controller
The AC One analog audio controller has been designed to
be used in high-performance applications that employ small-
to medium-size full-range systems with subwoofers. Its
excellent audio performance, dynamic range of 117 dB,
extremely low noise level, and outstanding price-perform-
ance ratio make the AC One an advantageous alternative to
conventional crossover and controller solutions. It is possible
to meet the tough demands of modern audio applications –
such as high sound pressure level, coverage, and sound
quality – only by using a biamped loudspeaker system which
can fully separate, amplify, and reproduce the audio signal´s
frequency ranges. The PowerMax 12 crossover function
brings the low-frequency performance of bigger systems to
compact systems. The AC One guarantees highly economi-
cal system applications without loss of performance, and
helps to save on application space.
Inputs and outputs are active balanced. The inputs can be
fitted with optional high-quality input transformers (NRS
90208). The outputs feature output relays which protect
against unwanted noise in case of power failure.
The new PowerMax 12 crossover function (patents pending)
makes the best possible use of amplifier output power and
loudspeaker transmission capacities. Compared to other reg-
ular crossover designs on the market, PowerMax 12 delivers
an extra 3 dB SPL at the crossover point, something which
cannot be achieved by normal EQ´ing alone. In addition,
speaker overload and amplifier clipping are dramatically
reduced. The PowerMax 12 crossover function silences the
oft-heard complaint: “It needs more punch and definition.”
In addition, a 12-dB (Q: 1.0) lo-cut filter and a unique
3-band equalizer featuring the patented LPN filter allows for
flexible, easy, and quick system adjustments.

The CPS Series are high-performance amplifiers with
unmatched dynamic range capability, ensuring the most reli-
able operation favored by sound contractors in all sound
reinforcement applications.
The CPS Series achieves its outstanding dynamic range
through the use of our unique nonlinear signal monitor. This
feature limits amplifier distortion to less than 1 percent, eli-
minating the "hard-edged" clipping which can destroy most
speaker systems. The amplifier’s power supply is specifically
designed to deliver high peak signals, proving a burst signal
output capability headroom more than 30% over their aver-
age continuous rating.
CPS 1
The CPS1 can deliver up to 450 watts of power at 1kHz into 4
ohms. The CPS 1 has been extremely popular in smaller venues
such as houses of worship, retail spaces, and entertainment
venues where background or foreground music is needed.
CPS 2
The CPS2 incorporates all the advanced features of the CPS1
but can deliver up to 600 watts of power at 1kHz into 4 ohms.
CPS 2.4
The CPS2.4 is ideal for smaller full-range systems or larger
mid/high frequency amplification in larger installations. The
CPS2.4 is an ideal companion to the popular EVID line of
premium surface-mount and ceiling speaker systems.
CPS 2.6
The workhorse of the line. Its 600 watts of compact power

From the introduction of the first IRIS (Intelligent Remote
Integrated Supervision) software platform for amplifiers in
2002, EV has been developing a robust audio control proto-
col and new innovative audio hardware.
The first was the RL line of remote controlled amplifier prod-
ucts. These amplifiers offered an amazing level of user con-
trol and monitoring, which brought reliability and ease of use
to a wide range of users. Now EV is introducing the Net-
Max™ N8000, a comprehensive digital audio system con-
troller — the next link in the IRIS-Net audio processing chain.
IRIS-Net is EV’s answer to the ever-increasing complexity of
audio system designs. It is a comprehensive software plat-
form, which encompasses a huge array of control options. All
aspects of the audio chain are under its supervision and con-
trol. The key areas of signal processing, supervision and sig-
nal routing are all manipulated under its shell.
Typical user-accessable control pages
Unrivalled System Supervision
IRIS (Intelligent Remote & Integrated Supervi-
sion) software for user-programmable, pass-
word-protectable control pages

Realtime supervision of amplifier operation and
loudspeaker load
Automated system checks including full band-
width measurement of connected loudspeakers

Distributed vs. Central processing –
The N8000 and IRIS-Net gives you both!
Now you don’t have to make the choice as to where your
processing power resides. IRIS-Net gives you the ability to
choose BOTH! IRIS-Net enables you to process all or part of
the audio signal in a central component like the NetMax
N8000 or to conduct the processing and supervision remote-
ly at the amplifier. This gives the system designer incredible
flexibility in designing the system. You can now design the
system for the ultimate in reliability or design for efficiency
and value. The IRIS-Net solution gives you all the hardware
and software pieces to accomplish both objectives.
Open Architecture –
Extensively Tested
The IRIS-Net software platform has been extensively tested
in a variety of venues. Even prior to its introduction the sys-
tem hardware and software underwent extensive testing and
scrutiny. The software interface and hardware component
design were made with the user and designer in mind. The
open architecture of the hardware and IRIS-Net user proto-
col allow for the seamless functioning of external devices
within IRIS-Net and its hardware components.
The new NetMax N8000 is the central player in the IRIS-Net
solution. It offers an extremely flexible hardware platform
that allows for field level customization of the unit to nearly
any application. This customization goes far beyond what is
available today from other platforms. Everything from the
matrix size and configuration to the processing power can be
customized in the field, making it easy to design the best
solution value for the customer.

The RE90 series brings the famous sound performance of EV´s
legendary RE series to fixed installations. EV´s RE90 micro-
phones are the most natural-sounding microphones on the
market for public speaking, etc. and as a matter of course for
professional theatrical productions. Ergonomically and archi-
tecturally designed, EV has married functionality with aes-
thetics making RE series the traditional favorite among sound
contractors, architects and sound engineers. RE90 micro-
phones are designed for the highest-quality applications with
linear frequency response and excellent, high gain-before-
feedback. All microphones guarantee a uniform polar pattern
across the range, high sensitivity, low self-noise and provide a
transformerless output device. The high-quality pre-amps are
highly-resistant to electrical noise and radio frequency inter-
ference (RFI). RE90 L and RE90 H have a external pre-amp
housing into the XLR connector. Gooseneck microphones
have an all-metal construction to substantially reduce noise
from stray magnetic fields and RFI.

All PolarChoice microphones feature dual capsule design for user-selectable polar
pattern: omnidirectional, cardioid, supercardioid and hypercardioid - all in one mic!
The PolarChoice Desktop is a free-standing podium style
microphone, firmly anchored in place by its elegantly
designed base. Select one of four polar patterns (omni, car-
dioid, super-cardiod or hyper-cardioid), via the easy to
access switch. All patterns feature identical voicing, eliminat-
ing the need to retune the sound system. The PC-Desktop
can also be interfaced to an auto-mixer for use in those large
and difficult, multiple microphone installations.
The free standing and movable PolarChoice Desktop can
be used anywhere a gooseneck or podium style mic is
needed, but a permanent installation is not possible,
required or desired. Whether it’s a boardroom conference
table, videoconference facility, training room, house-of-
worship altar, or even on a podium - with the PolarChoice
Desktop, anything is possible.
The PolarChoice satellite brings the benefits of wireless to
the boardroom, conference center, or podium. The Polar-
Choice Satellite is a free-standing gooseneck-style micro-
phone, firmly anchored in place by its elegantly designed
base. This low-profile foundation hides PolarChoice Satel-
lite’s most powerful feature: space for a wireless transmitter.
Turn the base over to reveal the specially designed compart-
ment for housing a Telex or Electro-Voice bodypack trans-
mitter. Connect the microphone to the bodypack, set up the
wireless channel, and place PC Satellite anywhere an easy-
to-use microphone is required. No longer do you have to cut
holes in tables, run long cables, or compromise the architec-
tural integrity of an installation. With the PolarChoice Satel-
lite, anything is possible.

Transmitter Features
Unique “smart” battery circuit in the transmitters means there is
no way to put the battery in wrong.
LCD display and the same four control buttons as the receiver so
programming a channel or frequency is quick and easy.
Low battery LED lights when the battery needs a replacement.
One on/off switch that also acts as a mute (great for pauses in
presentations and worship services).
On/off button can be disabled to prevent accidental turnoffs
during a performance.
Normal and High power transmit means you use just enough
power for the application, which maximizes the number of
simultaneous systems and limits RF spill over into adjacent
buildings/theaters.

Ring Mode Decoupling®(RMD®)
Electro-Voice pioneered Ring Mode Decoupling (RMD®) as a
result of experience gained through years of high-level concert
system design. The acclaimed EV X-Array™ was the “test bed”
for RMD®research. Just as automotive companies use Formula 1
racing to develop new technologies, Electro-Voice uses its work in
the concert sound and touring industries to do the same. The goal
of that basic research is to bring those new technologies into all
aspects of the sound reinforcement industry.
All loudspeaker components display unwanted vibrational modes
– or resonances – that produce both frequency and time-domain
distortions. A time-domain distortion is most often described by
loudspeaker users as a “ringing” in the system. This ringing is usu-
ally most audible through the vocal fundamental range, and users
commonly attempt to “cure” the ringing mode through equaliza-
tion. Unfortunately such attempts remove not only the time-
domain distortion, or ringing, but also parts of the musical signal
as well. The net result is that musical information is lost.
RMD®is a series of techniques developed by Electro-Voice engi-
neers to deal with the time-domain distortion at its source.
The basic problem is mechanical in nature. As a result, the only
really effective solution is also mechanical. When acoustic
resonances are encountered, the only effective solution is an
acoustic remedy. The same applies to electrical resonances:
The solution must be electrical.
RMD®treatment produces an acoustic signal that is much freer of
mechanical and acoustical ringing modes. The result is a level of
fidelity – particularly through the critical vocal range – that is more
coherent and “in your face.” Another benefit of RMD®technolo-
gy is a much higher degree of level independence. Many front-of-
house engineers have noted that system equalization needs to
change with system output levels. The louder the system is driven,
the more EQ changes become necessary to maintain system voic-
ing (that is, the system sounds different at higher power levels).
RMD®greatly minimizes the changes in system voicing that occur
with level changes. Systems with RMD®, therefore, display a high
degree of level-independent fidelity and a very audible improve-
ment in vocal clarity as well.
Power handling ratings
Accurately specifying power handling ratings presents a challenge
with odds typically worse than those in a game of chance. Each
manufacturer rates its components in its own particular way.
While responsible manufacturers always qualify their testing
methods, this offers little help to users not familiar with the differ-
ent test methods.
Electro-Voice has used an EIA-based rating for many years. It
offers a reasonably good combination of mechanical (excursion)
and thermal (heat) stress measurements. The ratings supplied
with EV components are very conservative, and require a full
eight-hour test cycle to generate.
However, Electro-Voice does not limit its power testing to EIA
methods. Long term continuous musical testing of rated program
limits is typically performed for 200-hour durations. EV engineers
also perform mixed-signal testing, a combination of continuous
noise (EIA- or AES-based shaped spectrum signals) and low-fre-
quency impulsive signals (such as kick drums). Mixed signal tests
often represent typical program material, and the resulting meas-
urements relate better to real-world conditions.
The most useful power handling rating is that of the program
material specification. This rating relates well to “in the field” sit-
uations for most musical programs. It should always be remem-
bered that no test method or rating spec will universally describe
every situation. Extreme power levels can produce either mechan-
ical or thermal failures with any manufacturer’s components.
Manifold Technology®
In 1986, Electro-Voice revolutionized concert sound reinforce-
ment by introducing Manifold Technology®. In each of the four
bandpasses covering the entire frequency range, the output of
four loudspeakers was flawlessly combined – or “manifolded” –
into a single horn (such as a large-format MH horn) or low-fre-
quency enclosure. The result was a physical package, a fraction of
the size of conventional concert rigs but with four times the
acoustic output. This eliminated the drastically uneven coverage
that occurs when multiple acoustic sources are stacked to gain
more output. Manifold Technology®came into its own particular-
ly in smaller-sized locations or installations, where low-frequency
output was limited by the space available.

Vertical Beam Shaping
(2- or 3-element line array)
Verticl Beam Shaping (VBS) is a frequency overlap configuration of
the dual-woofer three-way systems of Xi-Series™. It provides the
best directivity improvement, achieved by the vertically spaced low-
frequency sources which flank the mid-bass horn operating alone at
low frequencies and by appropriately overlapping the LF and MB
sources in the mid bass, e.g., 125 to 540 Hz.
The single-woofer three-way systems may be configured for VBS,
achieved by overlapping the (single) woofer and mid-bass source in
the appropriate frequency ranges. This physical orientation of three
sources, together with appropriate amplitude shading and filter
comibinations, produces vertical directivity control to below 125 Hz.
The resulting interferences of normal overlapped speakers are com-
pletely minimised. The sonic advantages of this combination are
significant. Precisely controlled radiation patterns at low frequencies
prevent reverberant energy in the 125- to 600-Hz range from
degrading vocal fundamentals. The pattern control achieved by this
three-source, single-enclosure “array” prevents the critical distance
from moving “forward” (toward the source) as wavelengths
become significant in size with respect to the radiation device, and
pattern control is lost. This is the case with conventional system
designs. The other primary advantage is that down to 125 Hz,
acoustic output under the enclosure is a full 12 dB or more below
on-axis levels.
This results in greatly improved gain-before-feedback levels on
stage especially in theatres where lavalier microphones are tradi-
tionally used under centre speakers. In conventional systems where
“under enclosure” levels are comparable to on-axis levels, system
intelligibility is even compromised at the source (microphone)
because of poor loudspeaker directivity control and subsequent
“spill over”.
Vari Intense®
EV´s unique Vari Intense®(VI) technology has a lot of advantages in
most applications of “typical sized” rooms. Vari Intense®provides a
rectangular coverage pattern. The unique, patented throat and flare
structure of the VI horn delivers a 6 to 10 dB hotter signal to the
rear of the room.
The resulting even front-to-back SPL eliminates ear strain at the
back of the sitting area and ear pain at the front. One VI horn
replaces two standard systems that reduce costs and eliminates
destructive interference which occurs between long- and short-
throw horns or multi-sourced horizontal arrays.
The downward-aimed horn delivers sound only to the floor plan
where the audience is and provides uniform direct-field SPL and sig-
nificantly reduces the amount of sound reverberating off the ceiling.
This provides an increase in mid- to high-frequency intelligibility of
6 dB in most applications.
To plan with Vari Intense®systems is very easy. The height of the
room defines the size of the floor plan covered with one speaker.
The area covered would be a width coverage of two times the
height of the ceiling and depth, or throw, three times the height of
the ceiling. Therefore a Vari Intese®speaker mounted centrally, par-
allel to the floor, at a height of 3 meters, would cover a room with
equal SPL, 6 meters wide by 9 meters long. Aiming the speaker
down by 15 degrees at the same 3 meter height will produce an
even floor plan SPL that is 3 meters wide by 6 meters long and tilt-
ing it back by 15 degrees, at the same height, produces a floor plan
SPL of 6 meters wide by 15 meters long. Normally the loudspeaker
is mounted approximately 0.6 to 0.8 times the height back from
the first row and has a nominal angle of the top of the enclosure
parallel to the floor or slightly (2 to 3 degrees) tilted back.

This graph should help you to get a feeling of coverage angles, loss in SPL and covered areas.
The following questions can be answered:
1. Question: “What coverage angle is needed to cover a width of X meters by the maximum possible distance to the audience
of Y meters?” Helpful when the install position of the speakers and the area to cover are predetermined.
Solution: Possible distance to the audience is a maximum of 12 meters. Covered width should be approx. 36 meters
(2 x 18 meters). A system that provides 120 degrees coverage is needed.
2. Question: “Which system is needed when the distance to the audience and the target SPL is known?” Helpful when the
install position of the speakers is known and a pre-defined SPL is required.
Solution: Inverse square law of a point source (-6dB when doubling the distance) helps to define the loss in SPL at a distance
of X meters. The pre-determined SPL at listening level (the audience) should be 100 dB. Distance to the speaker is approx. 50
meters (I.E. open-air, arena etc). The loss in SPL after 50 meters is approx. 33 dB, therefore the system has to provide a
continuous SPL of 133 dB/1m.
3. Question: “At what distance is a (i.e.) 75 meters width reached, using different loudspeakers with different coverage angles?
Solution: A 120 degrees system provides a covered width of 75 meters after approx. 22 meters. A 40 degree system provides
same width after approx. 100 meters.
4. Furthermore (based on point 3): “What´s the loss of SPL in both cases?”
Solution: Approx. 25 dB for the 120 degrees and approx. 40 dB for the 40 degrees system. To achieve a pre-determined SPL of
105 dB, when an area of 75 meters needs to be covered, the 120 degrees system has to deliver > 130 dB and the 40 degrees
system > 145 dB. In explanation: A job for MH 4020 which provides 146 dB maximum.

In 1934, Electro-Voice invented the hum-bucking coil for micro-
phones, still an industry standard almost 70 years later. The inven-
tion was the beginning of EV’s success in building microphones,
but not the end. Electro-Voice continues to set new standards for
microphone design today. Electro-Voice was the first manufacturer
to use neodymium-based magnet structures (N/DYM®) in its
microphones, thus achieving higher output and condenser-like
qualities such as crystal clarity and reliable performance. Electro-
Voice’s goals in developing microphone technologies have always
been the same: providing highest sound quality, achieving better
and more comfortable handling for the user, and continuing the
company’s tradition of legendary reliability and warranty support.
Its long list of patents attests to its success in meeting these goals.
Variable-D®
Normal microphones generate increased bottom end when used
close up. This is typically called the “proximity effect.” While some
lead vocalists like this effect and use it to enhance their perform-
ance, it is attainable only in closeup situations. When the distance
between the microphone and the source is extended, the sound
quality changes dramatically. Electro-Voice’s patented Variable-D®
eliminates this disadvantage. On the rear side of the diaphragm
there is a perforated pipe (interference duct) with precise sonic slots
at set distances. The duct provides maximum damping which is
completely uncoloured and undistorted at 180-degree off-axis,
ensuring the same frequency response as if the source was nearly
on-axis.
Variable-D®designed microphones can be used very close to other
sound sources with no loss in clarity or definition. This makes them
the preferred choice for tight vocals and challenging instruments
such as brass. Variable-D®microphones like the RE20 and RE27 are
favorites with broadcast show hosts, vocal booths, voice-over stu-
dios, and professional touring or rental companies.
VOB
Electro-Voice’s unique VOB™ technology (Vocal-Optimized Bass)
reduces low-frequency distortion in the microphone’s output. Critical
damping of the low-frequency resonant peak results in a microphone
that replaces the “muddiness” found in competitive models with
greater warmth and increased vocal intelligibility. With a wider range
of working distances than other microphones, this intelligibility
ensures a clean, clear, consistent sound that “cuts through the mix.”
