General Description:

The Electro-Voice ® EVID C12.2 loudspeaker system is a
high efficiency two-way ceiling loudspeaker package for high
ceiling applications. The loudspeaker features the EVID 920­8B transducer, a 12" coaxial with high power handling and
100 dB sensitivity. The integrated 64W transformer allows
for use in 70V/100V applications, and includes automatic
saturation compensation. Transformer tap selection is via
a convenient switch on the front baffle. The perforated grille
is finished in semi-gloss white powder-coated enamel. The
baffle and bezel are constructed from UL 94V-0 rated ABS.
The rear enclosure is constructed from heavy gauge steel,
and is has a durable black powder-coat that blends in when
used in open ceiling applications. The rear enclosure
provides an optimum internal volume for extended low­frequency performance. The C12.2 can be suspended by an
integrated 3/8" rigging point for use with threaded rod, or it
can be mounted using the 3 pendant mount tabs on the rear
enclosure. A rear cover, with provisions for a junction box
fitting, provides access to a 4-pin phoenix type connector
that allows direct connection to the speaker with 12 gauge
wire and provides pass through to additional speakers. A
tile bridge is included for safe suspension of the C12.2
ceiling systems in a drop ceiling that uses mineral wool, or
other fiber-based ceiling tiles.
