Model Summary

EVID™ FM4.2

The Electro-Voice® EVID FM4.2 ush-mounted loudspeaker system is a

complete two-way in-wall loudspeaker package. The package consists of

a bezel assembly, grille, rear enclosure, 4” two-way loudspeaker coupled

with a 4” passive radiator and an internal line-matching transformer.

The loudspeaker features 4” low-frequency cone and high-temperature

voice-coil assembly along with a 4” long excursion passive radiator and

titanium coated dome tweeter. The EVID FM4.2 loudspeaker utilizes a

crossover network, centered at 3,600 Hz, that provides 16-dB-per-octave

tweeter protection outside of its operating range. In addition the EVID

FM4.2 features a comprehensive protection circuit to shield the woofer

and tweeter drivers from excessive power levels.

The EVID FM4.2 utilizes a transformer that offers a selection of 1.75,

3.75, 7.5, 15 or 30 watts delivered to the loudspeaker system using ei-

ther 70-V or 100-V lines. The wattage is selected via a convenient switch

on the front bafe. The unit can also be operated as an 8-ohm speaker

via the same front panel selector switch.

The perforated grille is nished in semi-gloss white powder-coated enam-

el. The bafe and bezel is constructed from heat resistant ABS. The

rear enclosure is constructed from zinc-plated, steel. The rear enclosure

provides an optimum internal volume, ensuring extended low-frequency

performance. It is constructed from heavy-gauge, rugged steel. The

steel rear enclosure was optimized using FEA to virtually eliminate panel

resonance. The entire enclosure is less than 4” deep providing an easy

installation into nearly any tight wall or ceiling space. A rear cover, with

provisions for a junction box tting, provides access to a 4-pin terminal

block that allows direct connection to the speaker and provides pass

through to additional speakers. FM4.2 loudspeakers provide wide disper-

sion, high-efciency, high-maximum output, ease of installation, and

wide-range reproduction of music or voice.
