Safety

Warning!

Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals

who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of suspending objects

overhead. Electro-Voice strongly recommends all loudspeakers be suspended taking into

account all current national, federal, state, and local laws and regulations. It is the

responsibility of the installer to ensure all loudspeakers are safely installed in accordance

with all such requirements. When loudspeakers are suspended, Electro-Voice strongly

recommends the system be inspected at least once per year or as laws and regulations

require. If any sign of weakness or damage is detected, remedial action should be taken

immediately. The user is responsible for making sure the wall, ceiling, or structure is capable

of supporting all objects suspended overhead. Any hardware used to suspend a loudspeaker

not associated with Electro-Voice is the responsibility of others.

Safety Agency Compliance

The EVID 2.1 and EVID 40S bracket systems have successfully passed EIA-636 at a safety

factor of 8:1. The bracket systems are intended to support only the EVID 2.1 and EVID 40S

respectively. Do not use either bracket system for any other purpose. Never set anything on or

hang anything from the EVID 2.1 or EVID 40S enclosures when using the brackets.

Redundant safety point

As an added safety measure, it is suggested the user install an extra suspension point back to

the building structural supports. This redundant safety point should have as little slack as

possible (less than 1-inch is preferable).

Caution!

The seismic tab (auxiliary support ring) is not intended for primary suspension of the

loudspeaker. The seismic tab should only be used as a secondary safety point.

Introduction

The EVID Compact Sound Speaker System is a very compact full-range loudspeaker ideal for

applications requiring high-quality sound. Its shape flexibility and size make it nearly invisible

applications. The system consists of a high performance 8-inch subwoofer module with a

crossover network to support the included four (4) 2-inch satellite speakers. The system

provides for easy signal connections at the subwoofer and can support either 4/8 ohm or

70/100v signal connections. Its high power handling allows the system to be used in a wide

variety of environments and spaces to provide high quality background or foreground music.
