The result of rigorous research and development, the new X-Line Advance family of line-array loudspeakers from Electro-Voice represents a dynamic step forward in line-array loudspeaker system design, offering a range of new features and advanced audio technologies that work together to surpass the performance of other line arrays available today – and all in a significantly more compact cabinet.
The first wave of products launching under the X-Line Advance banner includes the X2-212/90, a high-performance compact 12” vertical line-array loudspeaker system developed for the most demanding applications, including large houses of worship, concert and event/tour sound, sports venues, and theatres/ performing arts centres. Electro-Voice is introducing the new X2-212/90 at Prolight+Sound 2015.
Though it is approximately a third smaller in size than systems typically used in these environments, the X2 is designed to deliver outstanding audio performance, superior full-bandwidth coverage, and higher output — meaning fewer units are required to achieve desired results — while also making system design, transit, and setup/teardown more efficient and cost-effective. The X2’s feature set includes the following:
- EV-engineered transducers for excellent audio quality: New DVN3125 12” neodymium woofer for higher output and lower distortion and new, next-generation ND6A high-performance 3” HF compression drivers.
- Enhanced Hydra plane-wave generators for clarity and control: Mid-Band Hydra (MBH) for superior box coupling and Advanced Pin-Diffraction Hydra for controlled linear HF performance.
- New Integrated Rigging System for efficient arraying: Built-in proprietary hardware designed to enable a smaller crew to setup/teardown faster and more safely – in around half the time of a typical line-array system deployment. EV-designed dolly system also saves time and manpower, serving dual purpose as transport and array assembly platform.
- New-look EV industrial design for a clean, streamlined appearance, with enclosure dimensions optimised for more efficient packing and transit. Compact size allows arrays of up to 24 elements. Two additional X-Line Advance products are launching at Prolight+Sound: the X1-212/90 full-range element for small- to mid-sized applications and the X12-128 dual-18” subwoofer — the most powerful sub EV has ever developed.
