With the launch of the 100S in 1982, Electro-Voice pioneered the design and manufacture of
composite enclosure professional loudspeakers. The 100S was followed by the very popular
S200 in 1984. At this time, high-tech industries began developing superior composites for
increasingly sophisticated applications. Electro-Voice set even higher performance standards
with the debut of the Sx200 in 1994, maximizing the lightweight, high-strength properties of
these composites. In keeping with our philosophy of constant improvement, we introduced
the Sx300 in 1997, incorporating breakthrough RMD™ (Ring-Mode-Decoupling) transducer
technology. The Sx Series quickly became the industry standard for professional loudspeaker
applications worldwide.
Moving forward, EV has raised the bar once again by introducing the ZX Series: a unique
combination of incredible sonic performance, application flexibility, streamlined aesthetics,
and super-light weight. The ZX5 and powered ZXA5 offer a range of features and a level of
versatility unmatched in other 15-inch two-way loudspeakers.
A unique combination of audio performance, versatility, aesthetics, and light weight.
You won’t find another speaker system on the market that offers the out-
standing sound quality, range of versatility, and tremendous output capability
of the ZX5 anywhere near its size and weight.
The relationship between enclosure
and component is crucial to optimizing
loudspeaker system performance.
By designing and manufacturing its
own components, EV ensures this
critical balance is achieved in every
loudspeaker that leaves the factory. ZX5
epitomizes this approach by utilizing
tour grade DVX series woofers and
ND2 neodymium compression drivers.
Electro-Voice Components
— The Key to Performance
Snapshots of Dynamic FEA for a high
power signal (100V) for a conventional design (top)
versus DVX (bottom). The changing colors in the gap
indicate an extreme variation of the magnetic flux for the
conventional design, while there is only slight variation
with DVX. The result is a more even travel of the DVX
voice coil, significantly reducing harmonic distortion.
Electro-Voice DVX®Transducer Technology
EV is a globally renowned pioneer and leader in transducer designs for
professional loudspeaker systems. The result of an ongoing multi-million dollar R&D project,
the groundbreaking DVX woofer series sets a new benchmark for performance, high SPL
output, and low distortion. DVX motor structure and suspension is optimized for very linear
movement using state-of-the-art development tools, such as computer simulation software for
dynamic finite element analysis (Dynamic FEA).
In conventional woofer designs, high power signals with peaks up to and beyond 100V
create a wide variation in the magnetic field, disturbing the linear movement of the voice coil
and resulting in audible distortion. Unique DVX motor geometry greatly reduces these changes
in magnetic flux, reducing harmonic distortion up to 20dB. DVX frames are designed with
integrated Forced Air Voice Coil Cooling™. The movement of cone and voice coil forces air
inside the woofer, taking heat away from the voice coil and exhausting it out the rear vent. This
results in drastically cooler operation and reduced power compression, so DVX can provide
continuously higher output. The asymmetric suspension of DVX provides a perfectly harmonic
system, eliminating typical loudspeaker resonances that can cause audible sound coloration.
First used in the late ‘90s, this process of Ring-Mode Decoupling was designed into DVX
using advanced techniques. Computer modeled die cast frames are optimized to be rugged
and lightweight, while specially forged steel motor components provide higher sensitivity and
additional weight savings.
Offering an unprecedented level of sonic clarity, dynamic capability, very high output, and long-
term endurance and reliability, the amazing performance of DVX woofers needs to be heard to
be believed.
With every excursion, cool air is drawn
through the voice coil, removing heat. This
significantly reduces power compression,
resulting in higher long-term SPL.
Electro-Voice DVX®Transducer Technology
DVX and ND2 are found in the world’s finest compact format line array systems – EV XLC™ and XLD™
ND2’s high energy, compact neodymium motor
provides extended HF response in an extremely lightweight design. An aluminum heatsink
dissipates thermal energy, allowing for additional power handling and maximum output, while
the ultra thin (0.5 mm, 0.002 inch) titanium diaphragm provides reliability and exceptional
transient response. All of ND2’s critical internal parts, including the diaphragm, voice coil,
and phase plug, are produced in-house, using proprietary high precision tooling. Each
manufacturing process is monitored with the most accurate equipment available, guaranteeing
every driver delivers consistent, correct sound quality.

ZX5 – The monitor
By design, the ZX5 is also a perfect solution for stage monitor applications. As different stage
depths require different monitor angles, the ZX5 offers two angles to optimize performance
without additional accessories.
Installations
The ZX5 is available in black or white finishes to meet the aesthetic requirements of most
installations. A cloth backed full face grille completes the clean, professional look. Weatherized
versions feature hydrophobic grille cloth and a waterproofed input panel.
Computer Optimized HF Waveguides
EV designs its superior waveguides to accurately control high- and mid-frequency dispersion.
To address different coverage requirements, ZX5 is available in two horn patterns: 90° x 50°
for wider areas; 60° x 60° for longer throw applications. Both provide smooth, even response
on- and off-axis.
Integrated Rigging and Suspension
ZX5 is equipped with ten M8 threaded suspension points, allowing for a wide range of rigging
configurations. Single stud fittings are standard on five of these points, including top, bottom,
and rear.
