The Wharfedale Professional EVP-X series loudspeakers
combine exceptional design and features with outstanding
sound quality to provide a choice of sound systems to suit
almost any application.
SYSTEM PROTECTION
The ProTech protection system in the EVP-X progressively converts excess power into
heat and triggers a reduction in the power to the HF Driver. When the overload
condition is removed, the system returns seamlessly to normal operation.
SOPHISTICATED CROSSOVER DESIGN
Enhancing smooth frequency and power response, the EVP-X features a sophisticated
crossover design that uses high voltage capacitors and inductors with massive cores
and heavy gauge wire, enabling the crossover network to handle high power without
saturating.
BUILT TO LAST
The EVP-X cabinets are constructed using high grade, low resonance composite wood
and covered with a road tough industrial carpet. A heavy duty full length steel grille
protects the internal components from damage.
VERSATILITY
Full range cabinets in the EVP-X Series are trapezoidal in shape and therefore easily
arrayable. They also feature an alloy stand adaptor in the base of the unit for
mounting on tripods or for use in combination with one of the complimentary sub
bass systems.
EASE OF USE
The EVP-X have the added benefit of signal present and HF protect LED indicators on
the front of the loudspeaker - green to show signal present and orange to show the
HF bulb is active, making it easy to monitor the system levels.
These loudspeakers combine superb vocal projection with tight bass performance in a range of compact cabinets.

THE EVP-X SERIES
Elliptical Wave Guide
THE WHARFEDALE PROFESSIONAL EVP-X
series loudspeaker systems are the latest
evolution of our highly successful EVP-S family.
Built around the development of an exceptional
new Elliptical Waveguide Horn coupled with a
ferrofluid cooled 44mm titanium compression
driver, the high frequency performance and
system reliability of this series is unprecedented
in this product class. High output capability and
low distortion with excellent high frequency
extension characterize these new drivers. When
comparing sound quality and specifications to
the competition, the advantages of Wharfedale
Pro built and designed components, the real
compression driver and our sophisticated
crossover can immediately be heard and
appreciated.
In comparison to a conventional
rectangular horn, the Elliptical Wave
Guide offers superior control over HF
coverage, with reduced distortion,
greater output and smoother frequency
response. The elliptical shape means that
there are no corners or parallel surfaces to
distort, diffract or reflect the sound – therefore
the output is smoother , cleaner and more consistent.
Again, due to the elliptical shape, mid to high
frequencies are diffcused more efficiently. When
coupled with a true compression driver, the result is
brilliant, natural HF reproduction.
