The EV Evolve 50M White is the latest addition to the Evolve family of speaker systems.

Professional performance column convenience, superior Electro-Voice-engineered components and premium materials deliver best-in-class sound quality, power and reliability.
No need to bring additional gear to the gig; on board is an eight-channel digital mixer with pro-grade preamps and studio-quality effects. Easy PA expansion. Use QuickSmart Link to connect two EVOLVE 50M systems via a network cable, double your micline inputs and mix the whole band via the QuickSmart Mobile app.
The EVOLVE 50M White is the perfect choice for bands, musicians, AV rental companies, DJs and any application where true professional audio performance is required in a super compact and portable package. WIDE EVEN COVERAGE. The full-range column array and its eight lightweight 3.5 neodymium drivers provide ultra-wide full-bandwidth 120° coverage via proprietary waveguides; array-formed 40° asymmetrical vertical coverage ensures acoustic output is directed towards both sitting and standing audience members.
MIX IT UP INTEGRATED MIXER:
Equipped with the most comprehensive and user-friendly feature set of any column system on the market today, the EVOLVE 50Ms M designation refers to its integrated, fully featured, completely configurable eight-channel digital mixer. Developed in collaboration with the world-class audio electronics engineering team at Electro-Voice's sibling brand Dynacord, the mixer has multiple inputs with professional-grade preamps and mix functions. High-resolution, low-latency Bluetooth streaming ensures excellent results for music playback or accompaniment. Independent channel aux sends and a footswitch input are also included, and a range of effects (30 presets, including chorus, delay, flange, and reverb via two FX channels) add a myriad of options for musicians to fine-tune their tone. All of the above help to reduce load-in/out and setup/teardown time and on-stage clutter by minimising the need for external equipment such as a mixer and effects pedals.
EASILY EXPAND YOUR PA
New from Electro-Voice, QuickSmart Link makes it easy to combine two EVOLVE 50Ms for use together with larger bands or gigs needing more inputs. Simply link the systems together via an Ethernet cable to create an uncompressed digital audio audiocontrol connection Pair both systems to a single mobile device via the QuickSmart Mobile app (available via the Apple App Store and on Google Play) and get full mix control of both systems. For applications requiring fewer inputs but still requiring a mixer and stereo output, the EVOLVE 50M can be matched with an EVOLVE 50 via the MIX OUT XLR connector.

· Product-related questions and answers:
Q: How does the EVOLVE 50M compare to the standard EVOLVE 50?
A: The 50M adds an 8-channel mixer, QuickSmart Link for system pairing, and enhanced DSP control via the app, making it more versatile for complex setups compared to the standard EVOLVE 50.
Q: Can I mount the column array on a tripod instead of the subwoofer?
A: No, the column array is designed to connect directly to the subwoofer via the included pole. It’s not compatible with standard tripods without a custom adapter.
Q: Is the 1000W power enough for a loud rock band performance?
A: Yes, the 1000W and 127 dB SPL can handle a small to medium rock band in venues up to 100-150 people. For larger or louder gigs, consider pairing two units via QuickSmart Link.
Q: Does the white colour affect the price or availability compared to black?
A: The white finish is a style variant and typically priced the same as black on djkit.com, though availability may vary based on stock. Check with the retailer for current options.
Q: Can I use this system for spoken word events like conferences?
A: Absolutely, the clear sound, wide coverage, and mic inputs with phantom power make it excellent for speeches, panels, or presentations.
Q: How far does the Bluetooth range extend for streaming and control?
A: Bluetooth range is typically up to 100 feet (30 meters) in open spaces, though walls or interference may reduce this. Test it in your venue for reliability.
Q: Are the onboard effects good enough for professional vocal use?
A: Yes, the studio-quality effects (reverb, delay, etc.) are designed for professional use and can enhance vocals effectively, though external processors might offer more customization.
Q: What happens if I lose the pole connector?
A: Replacement poles are available through Electro-Voice or djkit.com, but losing it prevents proper column-to-sub connection, so store it carefully (e.g., in the optional carry bag).
Q: Is this system rugged enough for frequent gigging?
A: It’s built with durable materials and a solid subwoofer housing, but for heavy travel, invest in optional padded covers or a rolling case to protect it from wear.
A: Yes, as long as the generator provides stable 100-240V AC at 50-60 Hz and can handle the 1.5A max draw. A clean power source is recommended to avoid noise or damage.
