Electro Voice ZLX-12P G2 Active Loudspeaker

Electro Voice ZLX-12P G2 — Portable 1000W Powered Speaker with Bluetooth and DSP

The Electro Voice ZLX-12P G2 brings a next-generation update to one of the most popular pro-audio loudspeaker lines. Inside, a 305 mm (12") ferrite-magnet woofer is paired with a 36 mm (1.4") titanium compression driver, both powered by a 1000W Class-D amplifier that delivers up to 127 dB maximum SPL. Patented Signal Synchronized Transducers (SST) ensure LF and HF output are aligned for improved clarity and low-end tightness. Thanks to Bluetooth streaming, a 4-channel digital mixer, and QuickSmart Mobile app control, users can turn a single cabinet into a complete front-of-house rig.

What Sets This Powered Loudspeaker Apart

Several design choices distinguish this model from standard 12-inch powered boxes. The SST waveguide aligns the acoustic centers of the woofer and compression driver for wider horizontal coverage and firmer bass without relying on digital correction. With Dynacord-powered onboard DSP, musicians benefit from studio-quality EQ, anti-feedback, ducking, and 30 effects presets in a portable package.

Specs That Matter for Live Performance

Every specification is tailored for real-world stage use.

• Frequency Range: 48 Hz – 20 kHz (-10 dB) — delivers full-range sound that reaches into bass guitar territory, so you don’t need a subwoofer for speech and acoustic sets
• Maximum SPL: 127 dB @ 1 m — enough to cover a 200-person room or an outdoor patio gig with room to spare
• Power Rating: 1000 W Class-D, bi-amped — separate LF and HF amplification sharpens transient response
• Plug in mics, instruments, and wireless streaming devices from one panel thanks to the versatile input options: 2x XLR/TRS combo, 1x 6.3 mm TS Hi-Z, and Bluetooth.
• Cabinet: Polypropylene, 14.82 kg, pole mount + wedge + kick-back — one person can easily set up this lightweight speaker for solo gigs

Who Should Buy the ZLX-12P G2

Solo performers, mobile DJs, worship leaders, and small-venue organizers will appreciate a cabinet that can stand in for an external mixer and effects rack. Connect a dynamic vocal mic with phantom power, an instrument via the high-Z input, and stream background music over Bluetooth — all without stepping off stage. The 55° monitor wedge angle and 23° kick-back position also allow the ZLX-12P G2 to shine as a stage monitor for keyboardists and amp modelers using FRFR setups.
