Product-related questions and answers:
Q: What kind of venues is the ETX-15P best for?
A: It’s ideal for medium to large venues like clubs, theaters, or outdoor stages, delivering 135 dB SPL with wide, even coverage.
Q: Do I need a subwoofer with this speaker?
A: The 15" woofer provides solid bass down to 40 Hz, sufficient for many uses, but pairing with a sub (e.g., ETX-15SP) enhances low-end for bass-heavy applications like DJing.
Q: How easy is it to set up and tune?
A: Setup is straightforward with XLR inputs and a pole mount. The FIR-Drive DSP offers user-friendly presets and adjustments via the rear panel.
Q: Can it be used as a floor monitor?
A: Yes, its angled design and DSP settings make it effective as a monitor, though it’s primarily optimised for FOH or pole-mounted use.
Q: Is it durable enough for frequent gigs?
A: Absolutely, the 13-ply birch enclosure with EVCoat finish and steel grille is tour-grade, built to handle regular transport and use.
Q: Can I connect multiple ETX-15P speakers?
A: Yes, the XLR link output allows daisy-chaining for larger setups or stereo configurations.
Q: Is it suitable for outdoor events?
A: Yes, for temporary outdoor use, but it’s not weatherproof, protect it from rain and extreme conditions.
Q: What’s the warranty period?
A: Electro-Voice typically offers a 3-year warranty on powered speakers, though confirm with us for specifics.
Q: How does it handle high volumes?
A: It excels at high volumes, maintaining clarity up to 135 dB SPL with DSP limiters to prevent distortion.
A: No, it comes standalone; cables, poles, or covers (like the ETX-15P-CVR) are separate purchases.
