The 2-way acoustic design combines an EVS-12M 12-inch (300 mm) woofer with a DH-1M 1" titanium high-frequency driver.
Both drivers have been developed and tuned entirely by Electro-Voice engineers.
It incorporates the patented SST (Signal Synchronized Transducers) waveguide for precise time alignment.
The horn provides controlled, uniform 90° x 60° dispersion, directing sound precisely toward the audience.
The frequency response ranges from 82 Hz to 18 kHz and extends to 55 Hz - 20 kHz (-10 dB).
This combination ensures natural vocal reproduction and crystal-clear treble detail.
The Electro-Voice EKX-12 is a versatile, professional-grade passive two-way speaker. Designed to deliver balanced, dynamic sound at live performances, in clubs, and in permanent installations. It combines excellent build quality with advanced acoustic design to provide clear audience coverage. Its sturdy wooden cabinet offers reliability in demanding transport and stage-use conditions. It is an excellent choice for bands, DJs, and sound technicians seeking portability and power.
Acoustic Design, EV Speakers and SST Waveguide

This combination ensures natural vocal reproduction and crystal-clear treble detail.
Power Handling: 1400W Peak and Maximum SPL: 131dB
The speaker is designed to handle 350 W continuous power, with peaks reaching 1400 W peak.
It delivers an impressive maximum sound pressure level of 131 dB Max SPL.
The nominal impedance of 8 Ω, with a minimum value of 7.5 Ω, makes it easy to drive with power amplifiers.
Its ample power handling provides plenty of dynamic headroom for clean reproduction of musical peaks.
Stable electrical performance prevents acoustic compression and distortion at high levels.
This ensures uninterrupted, efficient operation during long, high-volume events.
High Sensitivity 95 dB and Protective HPF Filter
The acoustic design achieves high sensitivity 95 dB (1W/1m), efficiently converting energy into sound.
For optimal protection of the cone and the system, a high-pass filter is recommended: Recommended HPF at 55 Hz.
Cutting off inaudible subsonic frequencies prevents unnecessary mechanical stress on the voice coils.
At the same time, valuable amplifier power is reserved for the rest of the audio spectrum.
The fast response to transient peaks keeps the attack and pulse of percussion lively.
The system works ideally both as a standalone full-range speaker and paired with subwoofers.
Professional Dual NL4 Connectivity and Daisy-Chain Linking
The rear panel features dual professional NL4 (Speakon) connections.
These sockets enable fast and secure daisy-chaining of additional speakers.
This configuration eliminates the need for unnecessary cables, keeping the stage area organized.
The twist-lock mechanism prevents accidental disconnections during live performances.
It supports the use of heavy-gauge cables, minimizing electrical signal loss.
Connections are completed instantly, significantly speeding up the soundcheck setup process.
15mm Plywood Cabinet with EVCoat and Flexible Mounting Options
The cabinet is made from durable 15 mm braced plywood with internal bracing.
Its exterior features a protective EVCoat finish for resistance to scratches, impacts and the rigours of touring.
The front is protected by a reinforced 18 AWG steel grille with a powder-coated finish.
It features eight (8) M10 suspension points, an aluminium pole mount and metal handles.
Measuring 607 x 375 x 356 mm (37.5 x 35.6 x 60.7 cm) and weighing 17.4 kg, it offers excellent portability.
It can be easily mounted on a tripod, suspended from a wall or used on stage.
