Electro-Voice Now Under the Bosch Umbrella

For 80 years, Electro-Voice has been behind some of the most significant innovations in the history of sound reinforcement. Now a product brand of Bosch Communications Systems, EV continues to provide application-specific solutions for all your Pro Audio needs.

The EV Phoenix™ is a line of high output loudspeakers designed to specifically address the needs of regional PA professionals and rental companies. Phoenix marks the first full deployment of 18, 15 and 12-inch new DVX woofers across an entire EV line. Each cabinet also features two of EV's latest ND2 neodymium two-inch HF compression drivers, integrated using the same Manifold Technology™ design that names the renowned MT systems. It is the "rebirth" of this approach to loudspeaker design that inspired the Phoenix name.

Two basic Phoenix systems are available: one based around the PX2122 dual 12" two-way with 30? x 45? dispersion, the other around the PX2152 dual 15" two-way with 60? x 45? dispersion. Each is used in combination with the PX2181, a tour-quality, dual 18" subwoofer designed for solid, thumping low frequency reproduction. Wood channel routings on the top and sides allow the sub to be precisely arrayed and secured with PX2122 or PX2152 boxes during stacking. For high SPL monitor, fill or delay applications, the PX1122M (single 12-inch) and PX1152M (single 15-inch) are true multi-purpose solutions.

Operating in bi-amp or passive mode, both boxes come with a built-in pole mount and truss mount attachment points. For stacking and aesthetic consistency, PX2122 and PX2152 share the same exterior dimensions. For looks and durability, all PX boxes are covered in EVCOAT. A full range of hardware accessories (wheelbars & flyware) is available.

For more details, call Bosch Communications Systems on (02) 9683 4752. Visit the Bosch Communications Systems stand (C28) at ENTECH 2008.
