Electro Voice EVOLVE 50M G2 Black Kolom-PA-systeem

Electro-Voice EVOLVE 50M G2 — 1,500 W Column PA with Built-In Digital Mixer

The Electro-Voice EVOLVE 50M G2 is a portable column PA system engineered for DJs, bands, production companies, and event venues that need professional sound in a fast-setup package. A 12-inch subwoofer anchors the low end while eight 3.5-inch neodymium drivers in the column project clear mids and highs over a 120° × 40° coverage pattern. The integrated 8-channel digital mixer removes the need for an external console, and the magnet-seated pole plus gravity-locked column let one person have the system standing in roughly a minute.

What Sets the EVOLVE 50M G2 Apart

The laminar flow vent design on the subwoofer cabinet extends low-frequency output and efficiency, helping the system reach down to 37 Hz (-10 dB) without a separate sub stack. QuickSmart Link uses a single Cat5 cable between two EVOLVE G2 columns to carry digital audio and coordinated control, so a stereo rig stays in sync without analog patching. Thirty onboard effects — plate reverbs, delays, chorus, slapback — sit alongside a 7-band graphic or parametric EQ on the master bus, all accessible from the color LCD interface.

Power and Acoustic Performance

Headroom matters when a column PA covers a full dance floor or a 200-seat room, and the EVOLVE 50M G2 is built around that reality. Total amplifier output is 1,500 W of Class-D power shared between the subwoofer and the column array, reaching 129 dB maximum SPL at one meter. The frequency range spans 37 Hz to 20 kHz at the -10 dB points, with a ±3 dB response of 43 Hz to 20 kHz, so kick drums, vocals, and cymbals all sit in their natural positions.

• Total Amplifier Power: 1,500 W Class-D — 800 W for the low-frequency channel and 700 W for the high-frequency channel
• Maximum SPL: 129 dB at 1 m — up to 2 dB more than the previous generation
• Frequency Range: 37 Hz – 20 kHz (-10 dB) — full-range response from sub-bass to air
• Frequency Response: 43 Hz – 20 kHz (±3 dB) — usable bandwidth for music and speech

Drivers, Cabinet, and Coverage Pattern

Inside the EVOLVE 50M G2, a two-way design pairs a single high-excursion 12-inch woofer with eight 3.5-inch neodymium full-range drivers arranged in a vertical line array. The 120° horizontal by 40° down-tilted vertical pattern keeps sound on the audience rather than the ceiling or back wall — critical in reverberant rooms and outdoor tents. Cabinet construction mixes plywood for the sub (with a polyurea coating for road durability), composite for the column, and an aluminum distance pole, with a powder-coated steel grille across both elements.

• LF Transducer: 12-inch woofer in a plywood enclosure with polyurea finish
• HF Transducers: 8 × 3.5-inch neodymium drivers in a composite column array
• Coverage Angle: 120° H × 40° V — wide horizontal, down-tilted vertical dispersion
• Crossover Frequency: 200 Hz — clean handoff between sub and column

Inputs, Outputs, and Onboard DSP

The integrated 8-channel digital mixer is what separates the 50M G2 from the non-mixer 50 G2. Four XLR/TRS combo jacks accept microphones or line-level sources, each with individually switchable 48V phantom power for condenser mics; a dedicated 1/4-inch Hi-Z input handles guitars or basses without a DI box. Stereo playback runs through RCA, 3.5 mm, and Bluetooth inputs, while a 1/4-inch footswitch input lets a performer mute effects hands-free. Outputs include an XLR mix out and the QuickSmart Link RJ45 port for digital linking to a second EVOLVE G2 column.

• Mic/Line Inputs: 4 × XLR/TRS combo with per-channel 48V phantom power
• Instrument Input: 1/4-inch Hi-Z for direct guitar or bass connection
• Playback Inputs: Stereo RCA, 3.5 mm, and Bluetooth with True Wireless Stereo pairing
• Outputs: XLR mix out, QuickSmart Link RJ45, 1/4-inch footswitch

Who Should Choose the EVOLVE 50M G2

The EVOLVE 50M G2 is the right choice for mobile DJs, solo musicians, small bands, corporate presenters, and event production crews who need a single self-contained PA for weddings, club nights, or conference breakouts. Solo performers benefit from the built-in effects, the Hi-Z instrument input, and the footswitch control, while DJs lean on Bluetooth streaming and QuickSmart Link for synchronized stereo rigs. Fitness instructors and venue operators also use the system for group classes, taking advantage of music ducking and automatic feedback suppression to keep announcements clear over a playlist. At 25.2 kg fully assembled and packing into the included column-and-pole carry bag, it suits crews loading in and out of small-to-medium venues several times a week.

Electro-Voice and the EVOLVE Column Legacy

Electro-Voice introduced the original EVOLVE column series to bring professional column-array sound to portable PA users, and the EVOLVE 50 became a fixture at weddings, corporate events, and club gigs. The G2 generation answers the most consistent feedback from that community: more output, more low-end extension, and more routing flexibility. Higher 129 dB maximum SPL, the laminar flow vent design, and 30 onboard effects make this system a go-to choice for working professionals who need to load in fast.
