What to do if Electro-Voice ETX-18SP produce acoustic feedback?
- W
  wendy45Aug 17, 2025
  Acoustic feedback in Electro-Voice Speakers can occur due to several reasons: * **Incorrect gain structure:** Reduce the microphone levels at the mixing console or input source. If the microphone is directly connected to the speaker, lower the input level on the speaker. Positioning the microphone closer to the sound source increases gain before feedback. * **Function setting:** Change the LOCATION setting to LIVE or SPEECH, if it is set to MUSIC. * **Microphone position:** Reposition the loudspeakers so the microphone is behind them whenever possible. If using the loudspeaker in a monitor position, aim the loudspeaker to the back of the microphone.

How to fix constant noise (buzzing, hissing, humming) in Electro-Voice ETX-18SP Speakers?
- K
  Kathleen FarrellAug 20, 2025
  Constant noise like buzzing, hissing, or humming in your Electro-Voice Speakers can be caused by a few things. First, if noise is present without any program material playing, evaluate each component to isolate the problem, as there is most likely a break in the signal path. It could also be due to poor system grounding or a ground loop, so check and correct the system grounding as necessary. Also, ensure the input gain knob is in the MIC position, slowly increasing the input gain knob level to engage the microphone pre-amp.

  If your Electro-Voice Speakers are producing distorted sound, the front LED is off, and the LCD screen shows 'LIMIT' is ON, it indicates an excessive input level. Reduce the input level or loudspeaker level knobs to prevent limiting.

What to do if the microphone connected to Electro-Voice INPUT 1 or 2 produces no sound?
- L
  Luke ChaneySep 4, 2025
  If you're not getting any sound from a microphone connected to INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 on your Electro-Voice system, it could be due to a couple of reasons. If your microphone requires phantom power, use a dynamic microphone that does not require it. If you must use a microphone needing phantom power, an external phantom power source is necessary. Also, make sure the input gain knob is in the MIC position, slowly increasing the input gain knob level to engage the microphone pre-amp.
