CHAPTER 1
Intr oduction
Introduction
The Electro-Voice EVU series is a compact high power 2-way loudspeaker system used in a variety of applications where
high-quality sound reinforcement is required in an ultra compact light-weight enclosure. The enclosure design utilizes
asymmetrical angles to maintain tight clearances to wall and ceilings while providing optimal coverage patterns making it
ideal to blend into surroundings.
This design is optimized for wall, stage lip and under balcony applications. The EVU series incorporates the ICT (Install
Compact Transducer), a high-output 1.3in titanium compression driver coupled to a Constant Directivity*
waveguide. The EVU woofers are developed using FEA (Finite Element An alysis) optimization to provide the highest
sensitivity while achieving the highest level of speech intelligibility.

90 x 50 rotatable
The crossover designs uses 18dBper octave slopes with equalization for very smooth response in the vocal range, linear
off-axis response and a protection circuit for long term reliability. The EVU line is constructed of multi-ply hardwood
plywood enclosure with six (6) integral M8 suspension points to support a wide variety of mounting positions.
The EVU system is finished in textured paint available in either white or black. Each EVU system includes a universal
u-bracket to facilitate mounting. The u-bracket provides for a 330° unobstructed, translation of the loudspeaker. Additional
mounting points are located on the back of the enclosure for use with an Omnimount*
Omnimount Inc. An available 60W transformer kit is easily mounted over the input pa nel for use in distributed systems. An
NL-4 cover plate accessory is available to simplify use as a portable system. All of these features give you the flexibility to
address a large range of venues, quickly and precisely supporting customer requirements.

EVU Technical Manual
Electro-Voice Model Number Notation
The Electro-Voice Model Number notation indicates the loudspeaker series, woofer quantity, woofer diameter, quantity of
band passes in the system, and following a forward slash, the coverage pattern. An example using the EVU-1062/95 is shown
in Table 2. The EVU-1062/95 uses a single ICT series 6.5in. woofer in a tw o-way configuration and a 90° x 50° pattern.
