Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Electro-Voice dealer

The EVID42 is perfect for a variety of environments where full-range audio is needed but space is limited: restaurants, bars, bistros, department stores, and out door venues. Offering the bass response of a much larger speaker, dual 4-inch woofers make the 4.2 a phenomenal performer. The 1-inch waveguide coupled titanium tweeter delivers controlled clean mids and highs. Combine it with the 12.1 subwoofer for an amazing listening experience. Full system protection and EV's unique Strong-Arm Mount(tm) (SAM) make the EVID 4.2 a solid choice in any environment.

EVID Systems
The ID in EVID is for innovative design of high quality foreground/background music systems. 13 models comprise the EVID series. Four surface mount speakers include the 6.2 with dual 6-inch LF drivers and a 1-inch Ti /waveguide, the 4.2 with dual 4 in. LF drivers and a 1-inch Ti /waveguide, the 3.2 with dual 3 in. LF drivers with a .75 in. Ti direct radiator. The 12.1 and 12.1p subwoofers are designed to augment and extend the fullrange model's low frequency response and completes the line.

Featuring fully sealed enclosures, the FM4.2 and FM6.2 provide consistent performance when mounted in any style room and their sealed enclosures dramatically reduce adjacent room sound leakage.

Six ceiling speaker models comprise the EVID line and include the compact powerful C4.2, The C8.2 and 8.2LP high output models, the C8.2HC controlled coverage high ceiling model, the C12.2 12-inch high performance system and the C10.1 high performance ceiling subwoofer.

Surface Mount Systems With Innovation
EVID surface mount speakers are not just another box, or trapezoidal system, EVID is different. It's unique design concept combines style with audio performance for several benefits. An aesthetic design using organic curves fits into many decors and themes, it does not look like a traditional loudspeaker. This allows better integration for a more invisible sound system, while not distracting from a commercial or theme environment. All models all available in black or white, and can easily be painted the match the decor.

Ceiling Systems For Every Application
EVid ceiling speaker systems are high performance, easy to install, visually attractive systems designed for background/foreground audio support in a wide variety of applications such as retail storefronts, hotels, auditoriums, office spaces and shopping malls. EVid systems offer specific, tailored acoustic solutions for these applications through their unique design. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Electro-Voice products.

Customer Reviews

4.5 out of 5 (3 ratings) Rate and Review This Product

Read 1 Electro-Voice EVID42 Personal Monitor Review

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "For home theater, bar, outdoor patio, pool area, etc. speakers you won't regret buying these speakers."

Sound: You can't go wrong with EV quality speakers. They cost a little more, but they are overbuilt in every respect - from the weather resistant design to the way they conservatively apply RMS power ratings, providing a level of durability and sound quality you can't find with lesser brands. I own a number of EV speakers (as well as both modern and vintage EV mics), including SX100+ PA speakers, the ZX1s and now the EVIDs for my outdoor patio environment. I had my system professionally installed and the AV guys were blown away by the sound. You can spend less, but you won't get more. Feature: Best: Durability - sound quality. Note: If you love bass, you will need the sub. While these put out better bass than most for their size, the physics of sound coming from dual 4" woofers equates to a 6"+ woofer - certainly good but isn't going to rattle your teeth. Mids and highs are sparkling, however, and overall dynamic range is as good as a high-end studio monitor (in fact, there's no reason these wouldn't work great for that purpose). Ease of Use: The mounting system is super strong and exceptionally versatile in positioning the speaker perfectly. Quality: You cannot beat EV speakers for quality and durability at the price, and you could spend a lot more just to match it. Value: If long term durability is in the equation, you will get years and years of use from EV speakers. Manufacturer Support: I blew one of the horns in my SX 100's - my fault -- and they replaced without an issue. The Wow Factor: Very cool look. Excellent sound. Weather resistant. Overall: They won't be lost and my Dobie will ensure they aren't stolen, but if it happened, I would replace them with EVIDs again. I would also purchase them from ZZ Sounds as they have always provided excellent pricing and great service.
