Dual-5” 4-element Active Line-Array system

55 System

EVO

55 System is a unique professional portable sound reinforcement 

solution that offer excellent modularity and versatility.

The very compact 4-element array cluster (smaller than a typical 15” 2-way 

loudspeaker) will always deliver SPL and coverage beyond the physical size 

of the system, while it can be rigged and operated with minimal logistical 

resources. It can be pole mounted, stacked and flown very easily by only 

operator.

EVO

55 loudspeakers features HF assembly with a 1.75” compression driver 

and a proprietary wave-guide design and a dual-5” woofer configuration 

for the LF section.These premium-quality, high-performance European 

transducers a dedicated passive crossover filter  allow for a natural, linear 

response throughout the useful frequency range spectrum without any 

processing of the system.

The integrated weatherized steel rigging structure and stacking, transport and 

rigging accessories make 

EVO

55 a really plug-and-play system.
