 Dual L.F. elements extend bandwidth and increase power handling.  A sophisticated network 
uses 2
nd
 order filters for smooth, low distortion response, and overload protection for all 
transducers.  
“Outdoor Ready” Construction 
All EVID models except the 12.1 subwoofer are weather resistant.  EVID 3.2, 4.2, and 6.2 meet 
IEC529 rating IP-x4 and MilSpec 810 for water and dust resistance. The attention to detail even 
includes weep holes to evacuate condensation.  Outdoor installations should include an overhang 
or other protection from direct exposure.   
Built-in transformer versions (3.2T, 4.2T, 6.2T) feature high quality, low distortion transformers for 
70v and 100v constant voltage applications.  They provide the same superior sound as the non-
transformer models. 
The 12.1 subwoofer uses a 12” transducer with dual voice coils to produce low frequencies to 
below 40Hz.  Its built-in filters reduce coloration while providing a high pass output for satellites 
that further increases their potential output capability.  The dual voice coils fully utilize a stereo 
amplifier for maximum sound and allow filtered stereo outputs. 
All models are also available in “decorator” white 
EVID Ceiling Mount Speaker Systems 
The EVID ceiling system product line provides premium-level performance at a value price.  Their 
wide coverage and high SPL capability allows the use of fewer speakers, resulting in lower 
system cost than the tight-spaced layout that low power narrow coverage speakers require.  The 
overall price differential of the EVID units to commodity type speakers is actually quite small when 
the assembly and component costs of these standard ceiling speakers is taken into 
consideration.  The EVID units are fully assembled and no additional installation components are 
generally needed.  An EVID system “pays for itself” very quickly. Locations with the highest sales 
per square foot are the ones who are most careful about sound quality, music programming, and 
customer satisfaction. 
The EVID Ceiling Speaker Solution – Why is it Different? 
The design goal of the EVID line of ceiling speakers was to provide effective solutions to give the 
contractor the best range of options when specifying a job.  Since the acoustic and design 
requirements can vary considerably from job to job, a comprehensive range of choices is needed 
to be a full service supplier. 
The EVID C8.2HC – Wide Spectrum Pattern Control in a Compact 
Package 
High ceilings and reverberant rooms have long been 
the downfall of many ceiling based distributed sound 
installations.  The inherent desire for wide dispersion 
in smaller acoustically dead spaces works against the 
use of ceiling speakers in larger rooms with 
reverberant characteristics and higher ceilings.  Until 
now there has not been a cost effective solution that 
combines good quality full range audio with useful 
pattern control.  Some ceiling products attempted to 
have pattern control at the high frequencies but this 
proved largely ineffective at the critical voice spectrum 
of the audio range.  The result was a speaker that had 
the same poor intelligibility problems when used in 
reverberant room as conventional ceiling speakers.
