General Description:

The EVID 4.2 is a very compact full range loudspeaker ideal
for indoor and outdoor applications requiring high-quality
sound. It’s shape and size make it nearly invisible for use in
background/foreground music systems for restaurants, bars,
patios, retail, and other applications

The 4.2’s three-dimensional elliptic baffle symmetrically
locates the 1” Ti high frequency element with a Coherent
Coverage Waveguide in front of, and between the 4” low
frequency drivers. This careful shaping, location, and 10°
splaying of the lf units provides coverage control by the
resulting line array. Lobing is controlled by physically
“shadowing” the lf transducers from each other over the
bandwidth they would normally exhibit interference. EVID’s
mounting system provides greater range of aiming angles in
both horizontal and vertical planes than other types. The
curved grille features designed-in weather resistance and a
hidden leash for safety.

All models are available in black or white, and can easily be
painted to match the décor. Transformer versions are also
available for constant voltage systems.

Architecture & Engineering Specs:

The loudspeaker shall be a two-way system consisting of two 4” (102mm)
low-frequency transducers, 1” (25mm) high-frequency transducer with
a Coherent Coverage Waveguide, and frequency-dividing network
installed in a vented, line array enclosure. The network shall include a
passive limiter for both the low frequency and high frequency transducers.
The loudspeaker system shall meet the following performance criteria:
Power handling, 200 watts of EIA RS-426A continuous pink noise (6 dB
crest factor); Frequency response, 65 Hz – 20 kHz (-10 dB from rated
sensitivity); Pressure sensitivity, 89 dB at one watt, 200 Hz – 10 kHz at
one meter; Impedance, 8 ohms nominal, 6 ohms minimum. The high
frequency transducer shall drive a waveguide to evenly cover 120°
horizontally by 80° vertically. The enclosure shall be molded of acrylic
butyl styrene. The enclosure shall be 12.2” (310mm) high, 6.9” (175mm)
wide, 8.5” (216mm) deep. The finish shall be a paintable black or white.
The grille shall be zinc plated, powder coated for corrosion resistance,
and restrained with a safety leash. The loudspeaker shall be adjustable
over a range of 100° horizontally and 90° vertically . The support bracket
shall be low profile and integral with the enclosure. The system shall be
weather resistant to MIL S pec 810 and IEC 529 IP 34 test conditions. The
surface mount loudspeaker shall be the Electro-Voice® EVID model

4.2.
