New EV Evolve Speakers Coming....

It's the Evolve 30 with a 10" sub... makes no sense to me.
Bring out one with a 15" sub. THEN we are talking.

While I agree with you I think a 15 would defeat the purpose of the Evolve. A lot of the sales are because it's lightweight the 15 would change that
I agree that a 15" would defeat the deal, it's the same thing I think of when I hear of DJs bringing an extra 18" sub. I am always saying no one speaker will be cool for every gig, but buying the "50's" and always bringing an extra sub seems silly.
It has a 12" sub. And no, it's not "amazing". I have 4 at one time and the bass always required an additional sub. So, no thanks!
I went back to Bose and very happy I did.
Perhaps I should've described it differently. Did it compete with my old Yorkvilles? No. But it has surprised me at how much bottom end it actually does produce. I'm over wanting room-crushing bottom end but do think the EVs are doing a very nice job for a good-sounding, very portable system.
So how are you typically setting them up? Seems you'd really need a wide spread to get a decent stereo field going.
But just talkin...cuz, until they bring out a kit with a 18" sub, I won't be buying.
Ya, it's an awesome system. Used it for years, and I miss the airy sound the Model II delivers, especially when the T1 is used with DJ Preset. I always ran a pair but in Mono as no one stands in the sweet spot to get the stereo effect anyhow.
I've never found the L1/B2 combo "amazing" .. certainly adequate, but only so much can be gotten with 2 10" drivers being fed 250w of power.
yes, but a lot more punch than any other of the collum array systems and a lot nicer sound. It hangs really well with the MUCH higher powered and bigger dual 12" DB Tech.
But I agree to a point, which is why I added F1 subs. The F1 subs blow away the dual 12 in the ES1203 in terms of low-frequency extension, but I was okay giving that up for more upper-end kick.
I ended up mainly using the B1s with F1s, Not B2s as the B1s sounds better and made more sense when combined with the F1.
I got more complaints about being too loud with the B2s than any other system I used for an extended period. 100 feet back it would rattle things crazy and I got many venues telling me to disconnect the "subs". I even got banned from one venue.. Go figure!

Nope.
Way more punch from a Evolve 50 or RCF-EVOX12 rig.
If you say so.
As to the remainder of that post,
But again, I defer to The Platters:
I will respectfully disagree.
I had the systems side by side and the Bose system was much better low end than the Evolve 50.
The MAIN reason that I got rid of my Evolve 50's were because I was concerned about my hearing. The Evolves let a TON of sound escape out the back of the column. TOO much. I would go home with ringing of the ears, etc. Look at the reviews. That is one of the biggest complaints.
Agree. I don't know any dj who runs in stereo. And certainly not with a column array type system.
