OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

3

Wharfedale EVP Neo Series loudspeakers are the result of many years of experience in the 
use, design and manufacturing of professional loudspeaker products. We take great pride 
in engineering and building every Wharfedale Pro loudspeaker and wish to thank you for 
entrusting us with your sound.
From the time Gilbert Briggs built his first loudspeaker in 1932, to the present, Wharfedale 
Loudspeakers have maintained the same standard of quality in components, workmanship 
and performance. Actually, Wharfedale is one of a few present day manufacturers that 
design, engineer and build all of their own transducers.
Please take a few minutes to read this manual completely in order to ensure that you get 
the most out of your EVP Neo Series Loudspeaker system.

                        SERIES OVERVIEW:

The  EVP  Neo  Series  are  powerful,  accurate,  high  quality  loudspeaker  systems  with  low 
distortion that were designed to deliver high quality sound for the best value.  From the 
EVP-12 Neo to the EVP-15M Neo plus the EVP-18SUB Neo high powered sub, you have 
what it takes to assemble the system that your music deserves. Other models to satisfy your 
most demanding sound needs include: EVP-12M Neo, EVP-15 Neo, EVP-15M Neo, EVP-215 
Neo and EVP-15SUB.
An important factor in loudspeakers, especially stage monitors, is the smoothness of the 
sound coverage. Many speakers that may sound acceptable in the horizontal plane have 
problems  in  the  vertical  plane.  The  EVP  Neo™  speakers  exhibit  very  smooth  and  well-
behaved sound dispersion characteristics in both the horizontal and vertical planes making 
positioning and set-up less critical. Everyone on stage will hear the same quality sound. 
Because of the multi-faceted cabinet design, the EVP-12M Neo and EVP- 15M Neo speakers 
can be positioned on the floor as a stage monitor or mounted on a speaker stand When you 
need that extra bass punch, you can choose the EVP-15SUB and the EVP-18SUB. 

INTRODUCTION

Wharfedale EVP Neo Series sound reinforcement speakers are designed for demanding 
sound reinforcement applications. 

The  EVP  Neo  Series  loudspeakers  are  high  quality,  active  speaker  systems  designed  to 
provide the best sound in a powerful, feature laden, easy to use package. They provide 
transparent and accurate sound reproduction or reinforcement. The 25.4mm (1.0”) Titanium 
high frequency compression driver projects crystal clear high frequencies. A proprietary 
70° x 70° Conical Wave Guide (CWG) delivers the high frequencies in a well defined, even 
coverage pattern. Dynamic passages, such as the crack of a snare drum or the report of a 
cannon, come through just like the real thing. 

The  EVP  Neo  Series  is  very  flexible  in  application.  With  its  heavy  duty  components, 
handles and stand socket and durable carpet finish, the EVP Neo can rise to any sound 
reinforcement challenge.
