1.0 Introduction (cont’)
EVA-2082S/1220:
two-way, LF/HF line-array module with a 120° horizontal x 20° vertical coverage pat-
tern (for short throws) and passive crossover/HF-shading/EQ network. The enclosure is trapezoidal in
the vertical plane with a 20° total included angle. The two line-array elements contained in the module are
vertically splayed by 10°.
EVA-AM:
this optional attenuation module mounts on the inside of an EVA-2082S input panel, and atten-
uates the entire module by 3, 6 or 9 dB. The nominal impedance of an EVA-2082S module is 16 ohms.
Up to six paralleled EVA-2082S modules can be driven from a single amplifier channel capable of driving
a 2.7-ohm nominal impedance (16 ohms ÷ 6 modules = 2.7 ohms).
Up to eight paralleled EVA-2082S modules can be driven from a single amplifier channel capable of driv-
ing a 2.3-ohm nominal impedance if at least two of the modules have the optional EVA-AM attenuation
modules installed.
Both single-15-inch and dual-15-inch EVA subwoofer modules are available. Both use the DVX3159A
15-inch (381 mm) woofer designed specifically for subwoofer duty, providing reliable low-frequency per-
formance at high SPL levels with low distortion and solid impact.
Subwoofer modules do not have in-
ternal passive crossovers and require an active crossover and dedicated amplifier channel(s)
for proper operation.
EVA-1151D:
compact single-15-inch subwoofer module capable of being flown either above or behind
an EVA full-range array. This is a rectangular unit with special tie plates that allow for assembly with either
zero or five degrees of splay between modules. It may also be used in a stand-alone subwoofer array or
ground-stacked.
EVA-2151D:
large rectangular dual-15-inch subwoofer module designed for use only at the top of an
EVA full-range array. It may also be used in a stand-alone subwoofer array or ground-stacked.
The standard EVA indoor versions are finished in tough EVCoat™. In addition, all EVA modules (except
EVA-2151D) are available in two levels of weather resistance. The FG versions, e.g., EVA-2082/906-
FGB, are designed for full weather exposure and feature a fiberglass-finished enclosure, stainless-steel
three-layer hydrophobic grille and the CDG dual-gland-nut input-panel cover. The PI versions, e.g., EVA-
2082S/906-PI, are rated for indirect outdoor exposure only in protected areas, such as under a roof
overhang, and feature a stainless-steel three-layer hydrophobic grille and CDG dual-gland-nut input-panel
cover on an enclosure finished in standard EVCoat. External fasteners on all EVA systems are stainless
steel.
All EVA modules are available in black or white and are supplied with the hardware necessary to fasten
one module to another and two cosmetic end caps, which give the finished array a smooth and unclut-
tered appearance. (The end caps on FG fiberglass versions are also finished in fiberglass.) Black is indi-
cated by BLK or B at the very end of the complete model number and white is indicated by WHT or W at
the very end of the complete model number, e.g., EVA-2082S/906-BLK and EVA-2082S/906-PIB.
