Electro-Voice EVID 6.2 2-Way Outdoor Surface Mount Speaker - 150 W RMS - Black

Designed to bring reliable, high-fidelity sound to outdoor spaces, the Electro-Voice EVID 6.2 is a 2-way surface-mount speaker engineered for tough outdoor environments. This compact, form-fitting model blends with architectural details while delivering expansive coverage, clear vocal articulation, and immersive music playback. It combines a 6" woofer with a 1" titanium tweeter to produce a balanced, dynamic range from deep bass to sparkling highs, making it an ideal solution for patios, decks, courtyards, poolside areas, and outdoor dining venues. The enclosure’s rugged build and weather-ready components are designed to withstand sun, rain, and temperature variations, so you can rely on consistent performance season after season. With 150 W RMS continuous power handling and an 8 Ohm impedance, the EVID 6.2 offers ample headroom for outdoor environments and straightforward integration with a wide range of amplifiers and distributed audio systems. The black finish adds a subtle, low-profile aesthetic that blends with most exteriors, yet it remains capable of delivering impactful sound where attention matters. Whether used as a standalone speaker or part of a distributed outdoor audio setup, the EVID 6.2 is engineered to provide even coverage and intelligible output across seating areas, courtyards, and open-air venues.

• The 2-way design combines a 6" woofer and a 1" titanium tweeter to deliver a full-range listening experience, with a smooth crossover that ensures seamless transition between bass, mids, and highs. This configuration supports clear speech intelligibility and musical detail across a wide listening area, helping every seat in the venue hear accurately whether voices or music are playing. The frequency response spans from 62 Hz up to 20 kHz, capturing punchy bass fundamentals and crisp, shimmering highs for an engaging outdoor listening experience.
• With a robust 150 W RMS continuous power rating and a peak potential of 600 W PMPO, the EVID 6.2 handles dynamic outdoor soundscapes—loud ambient noise, social chatter, and projection-heavy segments—without sacrificing clarity. The 8 Ohm impedance makes it compatible with a broad spectrum of commercial and residential amplification systems, simplifying system design and installation. This combination of power handling and impedance provides reliability for various outdoor settings, from intimate courtyards to larger outdoor spaces where consistent volume and fidelity are essential.
• Durable, weather-ready construction is built to endure outdoor conditions. The surface-mount design allows installation on walls, columns, or architectural features, while the enclosure and grille are designed to resist weathering and maintain performance over time. The black finish offers a discreet, aesthetic appearance that integrates with most exterior designs. This speaker is engineered to deliver reliable performance in sun, rain, and temperature swings, maintaining even sound dispersion and minimizing distortions that can arise from harsh outdoor environments.
• Designed for broad sound coverage across outdoor areas, the EVID 6.2 emphasizes consistency and evenness in output. Strategic driver alignment and enclosure tuning provide steady sonic performance across a wide listening zone, so guests experience similar levels of clarity whether they are near the speaker or farther away. This makes it an excellent choice for patios, courtyards, outdoor dining, and poolside lounges, where uniform coverage enhances the overall experience and reduces the need for multiple hot spots or dead zones.
• Versatile installation and compatibility extend the EVID 6.2’s appeal for both residential and commercial applications. The 2-way system is suitable for single-speaker deployments or integrations into multi-speaker networks for larger venues. Its surface-mount form factor allows discreet placement on walls or architectural surfaces, and it can be integrated with a wide range of amplifiers and distribution configurations. The black aesthetic ensures a professional look that fits into most outdoor environments while delivering dependable, high-quality sound for music playback, speeches, and ambient audio.

How to install Electro-Voice EVID 6.2

Installing the EVID 6.2 for optimal performance involves careful site selection, proper mounting, and correct wiring. Follow these guidance steps to achieve reliable, high-quality outdoor sound:

• Plan the layout: Identify optimal mounting locations that provide even coverage across the intended listening area. Consider sightlines, reflections from nearby surfaces, and potential interference from outdoor elements. For larger spaces, plan a multi-speaker configuration to achieve uniform SPL (sound pressure level) across all seating zones.
• Mount securely: Use the recommended surface-mount hardware and ensure the mounting surface is structurally sound. Verify that the mounting bracket, if used, is rated for outdoor use and can withstand wind loads. Position speakers to minimize direct exposure to water sprays and ensure cable entry points are weather-sealed.
• Wiring and polarity: Run outdoor-rated speaker wire from the amplifier or distribution system to each speaker location. Match the correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative) to preserve proper phase and intelligibility. Use weatherproof connectors or in-wall pass-throughs as required by the installation environment.
• Power and system integration: Tie the EVID 6.2 into an amplifier or powered processor capable of delivering up to 150 W RMS per channel at 8 Ohms. Avoid clipping by keeping input levels within the recommended range. If part of a larger array, ensure crossover settings and gain structure support consistent coverage and avoid unwanted interactions between speakers.
• Testing and fine-tuning: After wiring, power up at a low level to confirm operation, then gradually increase volume while monitoring for distortion or rattling. Adjust angle, placement, and delay (if using multiple speakers) to achieve balanced coverage. Weatherproof sealing should be inspected periodically to maintain reliability in outdoor conditions.
