IEC Noise, 6 dB Crest Factor.
The Electro-Voice® ZX1 is the new standard of no compromise
audio performance and versatility for compact sound reinforce-
ment.
The high-tech enclosure uses injection-molded high-impact
polypropylene to make the ZX1 extremely durable. The enclosure
geometry has been engineered to provide maximum rigidity and
acoustic performance. The velocity compensated port design
overcomes the limitation of many small loudspeakers and enables
exceptional low frequency response without vent noise.
The ZX1’s long excursion, high output 8" woofer with a weather-
ized treated cone delivers smooth low frequency performance
with exceptional reliability. A sophisticated crossover network
integrates it with the DH2005, a 1.25” voice coil titanium diaphragm
true compression driver for maximum output with extended fre-
quency response. Full-bandwidth overload protection is pro-
vided for reliable, long term operation without audible effect.
The horn features 90° x 50° coverage with the important added
benefit of rotation, allowing the ZX1 to be oriented either horizon-
tally or vertically for the ultimate in coverage flexibility.
The ZX1’s molded polymer enclosure is inherently water resis-
tant. The enclosure features an integrated pole mount, a pocket
handle, and a wedge-angle design allowing for use as a stage
monitor.
