Introducing the new Electro-Voice EVOLVE 70 and EVOLVE 90 Audio Systems
At the upcoming Prolight + Sound 2025, Electro-Voice will unveil two new column speaker systems, the EVOLVE 70 and EVOLVE 90. These advanced audio solutions aim to deliver powerful sound, enhanced intelligence, and sleek aesthetics to cater to professionals requiring more from their mobile audio solutions.
For several years, the EVOLVE series from Electro-Voice has been synonymous with sophisticated design, user-friendly handling, and professional audio technology. The new EVOLVE 70 and EVOLVE 90 models are designed to usher in the next generation of portable professional sound reinforcement, focusing on power, mobility, and control.
The Compact Battler: EVOLVE 70
The EVOLVE 70, a compact but robust column PA, is tailored for medium to large events. Equipped with a 15-inch subwoofer, eight 4.7-inch neodymium drivers, and an amplifier output of 2,000 watts, the EVOLVE 70 consistently delivers a strong, clear sound with remarkable flexibility.
One of its standout features is a laminar-flow-vent designed subwoofer, reproducing bass frequencies as low as 35 Hz with astonishing depth and precision. The 120° horizontal and 25° vertical asymmetric dispersion angle ensures even sound distribution, even in vast audience areas.
Key technical specifications for the EVOLVE 70 include:
- Frequency range: 35 Hz - 20 kHz
- Maximum sound pressure: 133 dB
- Weight: 35.5 kg
- Variety of connections: XLR/TRS combo jacks, RCA, AES/EBU, Bluetooth stereo
- Integrated into the QuickSmart mobile app ecosystem
- Colors: black or white
The EVOLVE 70 not only excels in terms of sound quality but also in ease of setup. Adopting the 3-2-1 method means assembly is quick and effortless, making it a professional column system that's difficult to set up any faster.
The Heavyweight Champion: EVOLVE 90
The new EVOLVE 90 is larger and more powerful, specifically designed for professional users seeking uncompromised sound quality in large events or bass-heavy music genres. Integrating an 18-inch subwoofer with a 4-inch voice coil, it reproduces rich bass down to 28 Hz, achieving a maximum sound pressure level (SPL) of 134 dB—making it one of the most potent column solutions in the industry.
Like the EVOLVE 70, the column boasts eight neodymium drivers and sophisticated FIR filtering to create a transparent, even sound image. Despite its increased dimensions, the overall weight of 44.5 kg makes it surprisingly mobile, lighter than some 15-inch competitor products.
Key technical specifications for the EVOLVE 90:
- Frequency range: 28 Hz - 20 kHz
- Maximum SPL: 134 dB
- 2,000 watt power amplifier
- Extensive connections as with the EVOLVE 70
- Integrated into the QuickSmart mobile app
- Colors: black or white
Professionals from the event industry, such as DJs, organizers, rental companies, and club operators, will find that the EVOLVE 90 provides everything they need for a seamless workflow: high output, deep bass, swift setup, and an iconic, contemporary design.
Electro-Voice will showcase the new EVOLVE 70 and EVOLVE 90 at Prolight + Sound 2025, offering attendees an opportunity to listen to them both in practical demonstrations and hear them live.
