Description
Docs
The EVID SOS 3.2 is a new approach to personal monitors! Its unique design enables the use of only one stand for the microphone and monitor. It frees up stage space and puts the monitor closer to the performer for additional clarity. The SOS 3.2 features a 1/4 in. input connector for easy connection to the amplifier. In addition, the performer can precisely adjust the speaker volume level using the L-Pad adjustment on the back of the unit.

ElectroVoice Evid Series SOS 3.2 Personal Monitor Reviews
2 out of 10
"OK for the money, but buyer beware..."
Feature:
There are 2 design flaws: 1. The volume knob on the back sticks out like giant pimple on a cow's butt. I expect these will break off or get bent - not road-worthy. 2. The pictures you see with the mic boom stand mounted on top is marketing hype and EV's engineering blunder. They didn't take into account the weight of the boom+mic when designing the pivot joint. It can't be tightened sufficiently. Additionally the pivot is made of cheesy plastic. When I wrote to EV about this, they ignored me which is why I'm writing this review. They'll work fine on top of a dedicated mic stand, but figure another $30 into the price.
Quality:
Overall sound and construction quality is OK for the money. Mounting hardware is a joke.
Value:
If I were rating just the sound, it would be higher - especially for the money. Factoring in the lame hardware and it gets a lower score.
Desirability:
The appeal of this monitor is that it can be conveniently mounted on a mic stand and then a boom mounted on top. As mentioned earlier - this can't really be done.
Sound:
I purchased 2 EVID 3.2 SOS for monitoring acoustic guitar and vocals. For the money, they sound OK... a little boxy on the low mids, but clear enough on the high end.
Support:
Wrote to EV about mounting hardware and got no reply.
Overall:
The speakers work fine on dedicated stands. I'll keep them but they are a big disappointment.
