Electro-Voice EVC-1122-VI: 12-Inch 2-Way Indoor Speaker for Precise, Versatile Sound

The Electro-Voice EVC-1122-VI is a high-performance, 12-inch two-way loudspeaker designed for professional indoor applications where range, clarity, and reliable coverage matter. Built to be mounted on walls or ceilings, this white enclosure delivers a controlled, uniform sound field across a defined rectangular area. With a robust 300 W RMS continuous power rating (1200 W peak) and optional 70V/100V transformer options featuring Automatic Saturation Control (ASC), the EVC-1122-VI is purpose-built for installations that demand consistent intelligibility, solid bass presence, and effortless scalability in venues like classrooms, houses of worship, restaurants, corporate spaces, and retail environments.

• Powerful, clear two-way performance — A dedicated 12-inch woofer paired with a high-frequency driver delivers a balanced frequency response with articulate mids and smooth highs, providing intelligible speech and engaging music playback in medium to large indoor spaces. The 300 W RMS continuous rating ensures ample headroom for most installed audio needs while maintaining clean, distortion-free output.
• Versatile mounting for flexible installations — Designed for both indoor wall mounting and ceiling mounting, the EVC-1122-VI adapts to room geometry and architectural aesthetics. Its compact form and clean white finish help it blend into most interiors while offering optimal coverage control for uniform sound dispersion.
• Asymmetrical horn for defined rectangular coverage — The asymmetrical horn geometry is engineered to deliver consistent, predictable coverage across a defined rectangular area. This minimizes hot spots and reduces unnecessary spill into adjacent zones, making it easier to achieve even sound distribution in classrooms, lobbies, or retail corridors.
• 70V/100V compatibility with ASC for pristine low end — The EVC-1122-VI can be configured for distributed audio using optional high-quality transformers for 70V or 100V systems. When used with ASC (Automatic Saturation Control), low-end response remains strong and musical on longer cable runs, preserving impact without harsh bass buildup.
• Professional build quality for long-term reliability — Engineered by Electro-Voice, the EVC-1122-VI emphasizes rugged construction, consistent performance across environments, and serviceable components. Its white finish and durable driver assembly are designed for frequent mounting in high-traffic installations while maintaining an unobtrusive aesthetic.

How to install Electro-Voice EVC-1122-VI

• Plan your layout to take advantage of the asymmetrical horn’s rectangular coverage. Map speaker placement to minimize distance to the farthest listener and avoid reflections that could muddy intelligibility.
• Choose mounting points that provide solid anchors and align the enclosure to achieve the intended coverage pattern. Use appropriate wall or ceiling mounting hardware rated for the speaker’s weight and mounting surface.
• Prepare the wiring. If you’re using a distributed 70V/100V system, install the optional transformer at the speaker or in the appropriate location per the system design, and set the tap to your target wattage. For point-to-point use, connect the speaker to a suitable amplifier with the correct impedance and power rating.
• Attach the speaker securely to its mount, ensuring level alignment and stable orientation. Double-check fasteners and cabling to prevent movement or strain on the connection over time.
• Power on and test. Play a spectrum of material to verify intelligibility, tonal balance, and coverage. Fine-tune positioning or, if applicable, transformer taps to achieve even SPL across the listening area and an absence of hot spots or excessive bass build-up.

Frequently asked questions

• What is the power rating of the Electro-Voice EVC-1122-VI? The speaker handles 300 W RMS continuous power with a capability of up to 1200 W peak, providing ample headroom for most indoor installations while preserving clean, distortion-free sound at higher levels.
• Can it be mounted on walls and ceilings? Yes. The EVC-1122-VI is designed for both wall mounting and ceiling mounting to accommodate a range of room geometries and coverage requirements.
• Does it support 70V/100V distributed systems? It can be configured for 70V or 100V distributed systems using an optional transformer. In these configurations, ASC helps maintain strong low-end performance over longer cable runs.
• What color does the speaker body come in? The unit is finished in white, allowing it to blend with most interior designs and maintain a discreet appearance in professional environments.
• What is ASC and why is it important? ASC stands for Automatic Saturation Control. It helps preserve low-frequency performance and reduces bass loss on long distributed runs, ensuring more consistent bass response across the listening area when using 70V/100V systems.
