Description
Download Manual The EVF-1152D/64-FGW is a fully-weatherized two-way loudspeaker designed to deliver high-output, intelligible sound for outdoor and exposed installations. It combines a 15 in low-frequency transducer and a 3 in titanium compression driver on a rotatable 60 x 40 constant directivity waveguide. The enclosure is fiberglass-coated birch plywood engineered for long-term exposure to sun, rain, salt air and humidity.
Key features include a DH7N 3 in titanium compression driver, a FEA-optimized 15 in woofer, and a rotatable 60 x 40 horn for configurable coverage. The integrated 4th-order crossover uses 24 dB/octave slopes and includes HF protection and a dynamic protection circuit to guard both driver sections against thermal overload. An externally accessible jumper allows selection between passive and bi-amp operation to match system design requirements.
Performance specifications deliver wideband clarity and measurable output. Frequency response extends from 66 Hz (-10 dB) and a stated nominal response around 118 Hz to 18 kHz (-3 dB) with a calculated maximum SPL of 131 dB at 1 m. System power handling is rated 600 W continuous and 2400 W peak, with a nominal passive impedance of 8 ohms and a recommended high-pass of 65 Hz for amplifier protection and long-term reliability.
Connectivity and control are flexible for fixed installs and weatherized deployments. The input panel accepts dual four-pin 10 AWG Phoenix/EuroBlock screw-terminals and ships with a CDG dual-gland-nut cover plate for IP55 weatherizing. An available 70.7/100 V transformer kit can be mounted to the input panel for distributed systems, and the enclosure supports easy selection of passive or active operation via an external switch.
The EVF-1152D/64-FGW is suited to a broad range of deployment scenarios including foreground reinforcement, line array augmentation, and outdoor coverage for stadiums or plazas. Its rotatable horn and trapezoidal cabinet shape allow vertical or horizontal arraying with other EVF and EVH series cabinets. The combination of directivity, high SPL capability, and low distortion makes it effective for speech and music applications where long-throw intelligibility is required.
Installation and durability are engineered for professional use – the cabinet is constructed from 13-ply weather-resistant birch and finished with a fiberglass coating for maximum protection. The grille and fasteners are stainless steel and the front grille is backed with acoustic hydrophobic cloth for moisture resistance. Multiple M10 suspension points allow rigging and flown arrays with optional hardware, simplifying integration into permanent installs.
Overall, the EVF-1152D/64-FGW provides a compact two-way solution for outdoor sound reinforcement that balances high output, controlled dispersion and rugged weather protection. Its selectable operating modes, rotatable waveguide and weatherized input options reduce inventory complexity and increase deployment flexibility. For AV professionals specifying loudspeakers for exposed environments, this model offers measurable performance and robust construction.
