Electro-Voice EVOLVE 30M

CurrentReleased 2019

A compact column with six 2.8-inch drivers over a 10-inch sub and an eight-channel Dynacord-designed mixer in the base. Four combo inputs, a Hi-Z input and 30 effects presets mean a solo act or duo can leave the desk and pedals at home. Light enough to carry in one trip, it suits small rooms and regular pub gigs.
