(2)This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Notice!
This product has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This product generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
—Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The device has been granted by FCC and IC, the FCC ID:ESVEVOLVE and IC:1249A -
EVOLVE30M.
Please take attention that changes or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20cm between the radiator and your body.
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1)this device may not cause interference, and
(2)this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radioexempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes :
(1)l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2)l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
1.3Precautions
If an Electro-Voice loudspeaker is used outdoors on a sunny day, place the
!loudspeaker in a shaded or covered area. The loudspeaker amplifiers have protection circuits that temporarily shut the loudspeaker off when extremely high temperatures are reached. This can happen on hot days when the loudspeaker is in direct sunlight.
Do not use Electro-Voice loudspeakers in an environment where temperatures
!are below 0°C (32°F) or exceed +35°C (95°F).
Never expose an Electro-Voice loudspeaker to rain, water, or high moisture.
!
Electro-Voice loudspeakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure
!levels sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to anyone within normal coverage distance. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels exceeding 90 dB.

3 Description
Thank you for choosing an Electro-Voice portable column system. Please take time to consult the manual to understand all the features built into your EV system and fully utilize its performance capabilities.
Designed to deliver a step up in sound quality and set a new performance standard for compact column speaker systems - EVOLVE 30M is perfect for solo musicians, small groups, mobile entertainers and smaller venues that need an easy-to-use, highly portable and lightweight system with extraordinary coverage and output for its size. EVOLVE 30M comes ready to go with speaker array, symmetrical aluminum pole connectors with internal wire assembly and magnetically assisted latching, subwoofer, and included pole/array carry case - all designed to pack up compactly, set up and tear down quickly, look great on stage, and withstand real-world wear and tear.
Professional-grade EV-engineered components and build quality - The full-range column array and its six 2.8” neodymium drivers provide room-filling ultra-wide 120° coverage via customdesigned waveguides; array-formed 40° asymmetrical vertical coverage ensures acoustic output is directed towards both sitting and standing audience members. The array enclosure is constructed from a durable composite material and incorporates an ergonomic aluminum handle. Four tuning ports are located on the rear of the enclosure for acoustic optimization. A 10” subwoofer is housed in a 15 mm wood enclosure with a high-efficiency laminar-flow vent design, for enhanced rigidity and acoustical performance. The Class-D amplifier provides up to 1000 W of output power: 500 W to the subwoofer and 500 W to the column array. The speakers are protected by a black powder-coated 18 ga. steel grille. Combined, these components generate a genuinely stunning performance to size ratio - an elegant form factor that looks as good as it sounds.
The most extensive feature set in its class - The EVOLVE 30M has an integrated full-function and fully programmable eight-channel digital mixer with multiple inputs (4x XLR/TRS combo line/mic inputs, 1x XLR/TRS stereo line input, 1x RCA, 1x 3.5 mm stereo, 1x Hi-Z instrument input, wireless Bluetooth® Audio Input), and professional-grade preamps and mixer functions - all designed in collaboration with the world-class mixer engineering team at EV’s sibling brand Dynacord. For the performing musician, Hi-Z and foot switch inputs are included for flexible system configuration, and a range of onboard studio-quality effects (30 presets, including chorus, delay, flange and reverb, via two FX channels) add myriad options for finessing your sound. This reduces set-up time - and on-stage clutter - by minimizing the need for external equipment such as a mixer and effects pedals, which also makes loading in and out of the venue quicker. High-resolution, low-latency Bluetooth®* streaming ensures exceptional results for music playback or accompaniment.
