Compression Drivers

Electro-Voice is one of a handful of professional audio companies that can design high-performance compression drivers. Compression drivers are the most difficult audio transducers to design. Their unique requirements call for ultraprecise tolerances, state-of-the-art modeling routines, and exceptional engineering expertise. Manufacturing techniques are frequently pushed to process limits, and materials are formed and stabilized with cutting-edge systems and controls. Each EV compression driver’s parameters are tightly controlled to ensure world-class performance, putting the drivers at the top of their class in every respect.

Compression Drivers  

Medium-format, ferrite compression driver.• Two-inch, titanium diaphragm • One-inch, screw-on exit • 40-watt power rating• For use in applications where cost is an important factor but high-performance is necessary. An ADH-5 adaptor is required for EV HP horns. An ADH-3 adaptor is required for one-inch throat horns.
Small-format, ferrite compression driver.• 1.25-inch, titanium diaphragm • One-inch, screw-on exit • Twenty-watt power rating • Works well with direct-radiating woofers in high-value, moderately high-output, two-way loudspeaker systems.• For use as a supertweeter in custom high-performance systems. An ADH-5 adaptor is required for EV HP horns. An ADH-3 adaptor is required for one-inch throat horns.
Large-format, ferrite compression driver.• Three-inch, titanium diaphragm • 1.4-inch exit • Seventy-five-watt power capacity• Large-format performance at lower cost, very similar to the ND6 flagship, but with slightly lower magnetic strength and slightly lower sensitivity. An ADH-6 adaptor is required for EV HP horns.
Large-format, neodymium compression driver.• Three-inch, titanium diaphragm • 1.4-inch exit • Seventy-five-watt power capacity• EV’s finest compression driver delivers world-class performance in any application, and is used in EV’s best loudspeaker systems. An ADH-6 adaptor is required for EV HP Horns.
Large-format, neodymium compression driver.• Three-inch, titanium diaphragm • 1.4-inch exit • Fifty-watt power capacity• Takes full power down to 500 Hz— for use in high-performance applications where the crossover frequency is below the ND6’s 1,000 Hz. An ADH-6 adaptor is required for EV HP horns.
