Description
The Electro-Voice EVERSE12-RAINCVR is a rain resistant protective cover designed specifically for the EVERSE 12 loudspeaker – it provides temporary protection against moisture and light weather exposure. This cover helps shield the speaker during outdoor events, transports, and short-term installations. The design balances protection and accessibility so the speaker remains serviceable while covered.
Key features include IP44-rated protection when the loudspeaker is used upright or in kickback orientation – this rating covers protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm and splashing water from any direction. The cover incorporates a bottom flap to accommodate tripod positioning and dedicated handle pockets that allow the speaker to be carried without removing the cover. Drain holes are positioned to support kickback orientation and an amplifier input pocket enables cable connections while the cover remains in place.
Technically, the cover enhances the EVERSE 12 weather resistance to meet IP44 conditions when installed per the Quick User Guide – it is not a waterproof enclosure. IP44 classification indicates protection versus solid objects >1 mm and splashing water; continuous exposure to heavy rain, salt water, or high chlorine environments is explicitly not recommended. The cover is intended for temporary or occasional use in wet or damp conditions, not prolonged exposure to harsh marine or highly corrosive atmospheres.
Connectivity is maintained through the amplifier input pocket so signal and power connections can be routed while the cover is fitted. The bottom flap design preserves tripod and stand compatibility and the handle pockets keep all original carry points accessible. Drain holes reduce water accumulation and help maintain internal component safety during brief wet conditions.
Typical applications include outdoor concerts, festivals, rental and staging operations, and temporary installations where speakers need short-term weather protection during setup, breaks, or light showers. The cover is also useful for storage between uses and for transport protection against damp conditions. It is not intended to replace a purpose-built weatherproof enclosure in permanent outdoor deployments.
Installation is straightforward when following the supplied Quick User Guide – the cover fits over the EVERSE 12 and secures to preserve IP44 performance in the specified orientations. The handle pockets and bottom flap simplify handling and mounting without removing the cover, and the drain holes assist in moisture management. Regular inspection after exposure to moisture is advised to ensure longevity and performance.
In summary, the EVERSE12-RAINCVR provides targeted, temporary weather resistance and operational accessibility for the EVERSE 12 loudspeaker – combining IP44-level splash protection, tripod compatibility, cable access, and moisture drainage. It is a practical accessory for events and short-term outdoor use when full waterproofing is not required. Follow the Quick User Guide and avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain, salt water, or high chlorine environments to preserve the speaker and cover service life.
