The Electro Voice ZLX 12 G 2 is a 2-way passive speaker with drivers developed by Electro Voice in a robust housing. The PA speaker from the popular ZLX series delivers impressive acoustic performance and high intelligibility, making it suitable for use in rehearsal rooms, bars and clubs, but also for mobile DJs. The passive speaker is equipped with a 12" woofer for powerful bass frequencies and a 1.5" high-frequency titanium compression driver. The successor model to the ZLX 12 is characterized by a continuous power handling capacity of 250 watts and a peak power handling capacity of 1000 watts respectively. Thanks to its monitor tilt of 55°, the passive speaker can also be used as a floor monitor. In addition to its wide frequency range of 55 to 20,000 Hz, the ZLX 12 G2 delivers an efficiency of 93 dB and up to a maximum volume of 125 dB SPL.
A horizontal dispersion angle of 90° enables a wide sound distribution sideways, while a vertical dispersion angle of 60° distributes the sound upwards and downwards in a more limited area. In addition, the speaker can be set to a 23° kickback position for better directivity and increased clarity on stage. Two speaker twist connectors on the rear are used to connect the speaker cable and to loop through the audio signal. Last but not least, three carrying handles on the top, bottom and left-hand side make it easy to transport the robust speaker.

Important information on cabling
When wiring amplifiers with loudspeakers, the type of loudspeaker plays a decisive role in the choice of cable required.
Passive speakers require a specific, two-pole speaker cable for connection to an amplifier. This cabling is necessary because the amplifier and the speaker are physically separated from each other in a passive setup. Depending on the connectivity of the amplifier and speaker, "speaker twist" or 6.3 mm jack plugs (speaker cable - not instrument cable) are usually used.
