Notice!
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception or receive
audible interference from radio, television or communications equipment, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on. The user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV/communications equipment technician.
1.3 Precautions
!
If an Electro-Voice loudspeaker is used outdoors on a sunny day, place the
loudspeaker in a shaded or covered area. The loudspeaker amplifiers have
protection circuits that temporarily shut the loudspeaker off when extremely
high temperatures are reached. This can happen on hot days when the
loudspeaker is in direct sunlight.
!
Do not use Electro-Voice loudspeakers in an environment where temperatures
are below 0°C (32°F) or exceed +35°C (95°F).

!
Never expose an Electro-Voice loudspeaker to rain, water, or high moisture.
!
Electro-Voice loudspeakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure
levels sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to anyone within normal
coverage distance. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to
sound pressure levels exceeding 90 dB.

2 Description
The PXM-12MP is a powered, multi-functional coaxial monitor designed for high output and
clear audio intelligibility. It is ideal for applications where the user requires monitoring of
themselves or others, particularly in situations where a primary PA is in use. Multiple inputs
and tuning presets allow for a wide variety of additional applications. It can also double as a
PA with the use of built-in presets and a standard speaker tripod mount.
The system features a coaxial 12” transducer with a 1.75” neodymium compression driver.
These are driven by a Dynacord engineered 2-channel 700 W amplifier and digital signal
processing. The components are housed in a rigid 15 mm plywood enclosure that is protected
by a polyurea-based EV-Coat and an 15 gauge powder-coated steel grille. The system features
multiple handles and a light weight for easy handling and portability.
Thank you for choosing an Electro-Voice powered loudspeaker system. Please take time to
consult the manual to understand all the features built into your EV system and fully utilize its
performance capabilities.
