Electro-Voice Everse 12 2-Way Speaker - Black

The launch of EVERSE 8 saw Electro-Voice set a bold new benchmark for battery-powered portable speakers by bringing real pro-audio performance into play, and the EVERSE name quickly rose through the ranks to represent the gold standard in the segment.

Now EV has raised its game once again with EVERSE 12, a larger and louder 12” two-way option for users looking for bigger sound – along with the best-in-class battery performance and wireless-friendly features that made its 8” counterpart such a success.

• Massive sonic impact in a super-compact package – new larger EVERSE option offers a huge 5 dB increase in SPL over EVERSE 8, along with deep bass output to satisfy the most demanding users
• Real pro audio to go – compact, lightweight and weatherized design combined with extended 12+ hour battery life – play-all-day power and superior sound quality for gigs and events, indoors or outdoors
• Wireless freedom and flexibility – all-in-one feature set includes QuickSmart Mobile app and Bluetooth® true wireless stereo for best-in-class control and streaming, an onboard mixer and studio-quality effects

Louder, lower, longer

EVERSE 12 sets itself apart with professional-grade specifications at an appealing price. With a maximum SPL of 126 dB, deep low-frequency response (45 Hz) and wide coverage (100º x 60º), it delivers truly impressive performance. Perfect for DJs, musicians, rentals and events, it's a portable powerhouse suitable for various scenarios, offering signature clarity with serious output capability. The custom Li-ion battery provides 12+ hours at 100 dB or 6+ hours at max output. Weatherized design, a high-output titanium-diaphragm compression driver, true wireless stereo and QuickSmart Mobile app control all add up to ensure EVERSE 12 excels indoors and outdoors.

Superior sound starts behind the grille

EVERSE 12’s woofer and compression driver are coupled to a patented SST (Signal Synchronized Transducers) ported waveguide, enhancing low-frequency extension and delivering even vertical and horizontal coverage across all frequencies – all while allowing a significantly smaller enclosure. The components are "Powered by Dynacord," utilizing a high-efficiency 400 W Class-D amplifier and DSP module developed in collaboration with EV’s sibling brand. Pro features include a four-channel digital mixer, studio-quality effects, mode presets, phantom power, feedback suppression and audio ducking, offering a self-contained setup from input to output.

Simple setup and flexible connectivity

The EV QuickSmart Mobile app streamlines wireless control for EVERSE 12, allowing adjustment of audio, effects and mix functions via phone or tablet. Pairing up to six Bluetooth®-equipped Electro-Voice speakers is possible, along with support for Bluetooth® true wireless stereo streaming. Local configuration is swift with the single-knob encoder, and the intuitive interface simplifies shaping your sound. The integrated 12 V DC port powers wireless microphone systems, and a USB-C charging port is provided for mobile devices. Connectivity includes two XLR/TRS combo jacks, a 3.5 mm stereo jack and a TRS footswitch input.

Versatile weatherized design

EVERSE 12 is precision-crafted for easy transportation, while embodying Electro-Voice's reputation for durability and reliability. Featuring a soft-touch handle and lightweight construction, it easily mounts on a tripod, acts as a stage wedge, or projects upward with adjustable angles. In combination with the rugged polypropylene enclosure, utilizing the included weatherized input cover allows EVERSE 12 to achieve an IP43 rating (water-resistant for splashes and light rain) when running on battery power during Bluetooth® streaming. The optional rain cover and duffel bag further enhance weather protection and convenience. Built-in feet with no-skid rubber pads ensure stability.
