General Description:
®
The Electro-Voice
Zx5 is the new standard of no compromise audio
performance and versatility in a simple to use, compact package.
At its heart are the transducers. First is the DVX3150 high
performance low frequency transducer. EV used advanced
computer aided design techniques to create forced air, directional
voice coil cooling for high power and efficiency. Finite element
analysis was used to optimize the suspension and magnetic structure
for long, linear travel to provide low distortion and greater LF
extension. These features and details, such as forged magnetic
components and special materials, provide reliability with a 500W
power rating in a lightweight transducer. Next is the ND2, a 2-inch
voice coil compression driver based on neodymium motor structure
to allow for maximum output while reducing size and weight to a
minimum. Its precision phasing plug and titanium diaphragm provide
better HF performance, while the integral heatsink provides cooling
for high power output.
The high tech enclosure uses injection-molded high-impact
polypropylene structural foam to make the Zx5 incredibly durable.
The enclosure geometry elements have been carefully designed to
provide maximum rigidity and bass response. By design the Zx5 is
also a perfect solution for stage monitors by allowing two angles
(45° or 55°) without any additional accessories.
Two coverage patterns are available; 60° x 60° coverage for long-
throw and cluster applications, 90° x 50° coverage for wider coverage
or shorter distances.
The Zx5 is equipped with three anchor plates for rigging with single
stud-fittings, along with two more possible anchor plate attachment
points on the bottom. For permanent suspension or attaching
brackets, the Zx5 also has two M8 inserts on the top and bottom,
two under the handle, and four on the back of the enclosure, for a
total of 10. All versions are available in black or white.
