Electro-Voice 2-way Outdoor Speaker - 500 W RMS - White
The Electro-Voice 2-way Outdoor Speaker is engineered to deliver professional-grade sound in any outdoor setting while standing up to the elements. With a fully weatherized fiberglass enclosure, gland nut seal, and a corrosion-resistant stainless steel grille, this white speaker pair is built for longevity and consistent performance—from quiet backyard gatherings to high-energy outdoor events. Its 500 W RMS power handling ensures robust, dynamic audio with clear highs, tight bass, and even coverage across large outdoor spaces. The combination of a 1.4" titanium compression driver and a 12" low-frequency transducer, driven by an advanced 4th order crossover with HF protection, provides a comprehensive sound experience that remains accurate at both low and high volumes.
- Fully weatherized fiberglass enclosure with gland nut and stainless steel grille provides reliable outdoor durability and protection against moisture, dust, and UV exposure.
- 1.4" (36mm) exit pure titanium compression driver (SMX2121) delivers crisp, detailed high frequencies with strong dynamic range for outdoor environments.
- 12" (305mm) low-frequency transducer with fully symmetric drive ensures tight, powerful bass and balanced midrange response across wide listening angles.
- Advanced 4th order crossover network with HF protection delivers smooth, coherent integration between the woofer and tweeter while guarding against harsh transients.
- ND2B 2" (51mm) diaphragm supports accurate high-frequency dispersion and extended response, enabling natural sound reproduction across a broad outdoor coverage area.

How to install Electro-Voice 2-way Outdoor Speaker
- Choose a mounting location that provides optimal audience coverage while keeping the enclosure out of direct exposure to the elements whenever possible. Ensure the surface is solid enough to support the speaker’s weight and withstand wind loads.
- Prepare the mounting hardware and hardware cavities. The gland nut and stainless steel grille are designed to seal against outdoor moisture, so use weather-resistant mounting screws or bolts suitable for your mounting surface.
- Mount the speaker securely using the designated mounting points. Adjust the angle to achieve even dispersion across the listening area and minimize dark spots or overly bright zones.
- Run outdoor-rated speaker cable from your amplifier or mixer to the speaker location. Use weatherproof connectors and keep all connections above ground or protected from water exposure. Maintain proper strain relief to prevent connector pull-out.
- Connect the speaker to a compatible amplifier that can deliver up to 500 W RMS in accordance with system design. Calibrate the crossover settings and HF protection as required by your installation to ensure a balanced, distortion-free signal.
