Electro-Voice PK-ZLX15PG2 Active 15-Inch Speaker with BT – Pair
The Sonic Sequel
Electro-Voice introduced the first-generation ZLX series in 2013 to bring real pro-audio performance to a more accessible price point. Users around the world soon took notice. Afterwards, ZLX’s proven performance and day-to-day reliability quickly positioned it as the undisputed industry benchmark. Now, Electro-Voice PK-ZLX15PG2 steps up as the sequel to that success story.
Superior Engineering, Superior Sound
ZLX-15P G2 has levelled up the standout audio that made ZLX the go-to choice. Maximum SPL has increased and premium components behind the grille ensure ZLX-15P G2 offers stunning acoustic performance. Also, the woofer and compression driver in the ZLX-12P G2 model are coupled to a patented SST (Signal Synchronized Transducers) ported waveguide. Therefore, enhancing low-frequency extension and delivering even vertical and horizontal coverage across all frequencies.
Smart Control And Connectivity
ZLX-15P G2 is “Powered by Dynacord” – onboard premium electronics from Electro-Voice’s sibling brand. Ultra-efficient 1000 W Class-D power amplifier modules feature an integrated four-channel, three-input digital mixer with high-quality effects. The mixer includes two XLR/TRS combo jacks and provides 24 V phantom power and Hi-Z compatibility. The mixer also includes pro features such as AFS (automatic feedback suppression), ducking, compression, loudspeaker delay settings and more.
Five system mode settings are available: Music, Live, Speech, Club and FRFR (full range, flat response). New for ZLX G2 and a unique feature in this product class, the FRFR setting offers a flat/neutral frequency response. Thus, producing accurate results when used with modelling processors and guitar cab simulators.
Powered ZLX G2 loudspeakers also contain Electro-Voice-specific subwoofer presets that adjust for both gain and time alignment, resulting in full acoustic optimization. Additional high pass (HP) filters are available in the DSP for increased compatibility.
In fact, all ZLX G2 loudspeaker and mixer functions can be remote-controlled and monitored using the Electro-Voice QuickSmart Mobile app. The app allows pairing and grouping of up to six Bluetooth®-equipped Electro-Voice portable loudspeakers, in any combination.
Form And Function Redefined
Enclosure design, ergonomics and versatility were all a priority in ZLX G2’s development. It resulted in a sleek yet solid blend of form and function that evolves elements. The durable polypropylene construction of the loudspeaker enclosure features a new strengthening “spine” complete with an embossed Electro-Voice logo.
Symmetrical 55º sides allow for a steeper projection angle when the loudspeaker is placed in monitor position, making it easier for users to hear themselves, while also facilitating access to the amplifier input/control panel on the opposite side.
The stance of the enclosure has been redesigned to aim straight forward when placed directly atop a subwoofer (i.e., without the use of a pole). A built-in “kick-back” angle allows the 12” and 15” versions to project upwards at a 23º angle in a vertical orientation.
A choice of mounting accessories is available to permanently install ZLX G2 models: a “U” style wall bracket allows 12” and 15” models to be either vertically or horizontally mounted; a long-arm pole-mount style wall bracket for the 12” and 15” versions allows vertical mounting with tilt adjustment; a short-arm pole-mount-style wall bracket for the 8” version allows vertical mounting. Also, slipcovers are available for all model sizes.
