Technology

Automatic Saturation Compensation (ASC) is a patented Electro-Voice technology that delivers outstanding audio performance from transformer-isolated loudspeakers on 70V/100V systems. ASC preserves low-frequency performance while presenting a stable load to the amplifier – regardless of the number of loudspeakers connected in parallel. As a result, ASC-equipped loudspeakers – including subwoofers – sound virtually identical, whether they are used with a transformer or without.

Employing the latest Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter technology, EV’s proprietary FIR-Drive design optimizes transducer linearity for precise, balanced sonic output.

Adapted from EV’s concert sound systems, EV’s Peak Anticipation Limiter algorithm prevents speakers from damage due to over excursion and the hard-clipping of the amplifier. Protect your speaker, protect your performance, protect your investment.

EV’s patented Signal Synchronized Transducer waveguide design saves space while improving acoustic performance. The waveguide (or “horn”) is placed forward in the enclosure to help time-align the low- and high-frequency transducers (a.k.a. the woofer and tweeter).

Electro-Voice’s patented Variable-D eliminates this disadvantage. On the rear side of the diaphragm there is a perforated pipe (interference duct) with precise sonic slots at set distances. The duct provides maximum damping that is completely uncolored and undistorted at 180° off-axis, ensuring the same frequency response as if the source was nearly on-axis. This characteristic is particularly beneficial when the performer (announcer, vocalist or instrumentalist) moves around while addressing the microphone. And this same attribute is why radio announcers and DJs have chosen Electro-Voice Variable-D microphones for decades.

Housed in a low-profile enclosure that tucks neatly into ceilings and corners, the Variable Intensity (VI) loudspeaker configuration is based on an innovative 2-way design in which the mounting angle of the woofer and the downward-facing asymmetrical waveguide work together to evenly cover a clearly defined, rectangular audience area with single loudspeaker system.
