Q: How does this system sound for live music performances?
A: The EKX series delivers clear, powerful sound. The 15" speakers handle mid and high frequencies exceptionally well, while the 18" subwoofers provide deep, punchy bass. With a total output of 5600W and a maximum SPL of 134 dB, this system is well-suited for live music in small to medium venues, offering high volume and wide coverage.
Q: Is this system easy to set up for someone with limited technical knowledge?
A: Yes, the QuickSmartDSP feature simplifies configuration with presets for different applications (e.g., music, speech) and an intuitive single-knob interface with LCD navigation. The included speaker poles and XLR cables also make physical setup straightforward.
Q: How portable is this system? Can one person manage to transport and set it up?
A: Each component is relatively lightweight for its power—EKX15P at around 24 kg (53 lbs) and EKX18SP at around 33 kg (72.8 lbs). While one person can handle individual units, transporting all four may require assistance or a cart. The metal handles make lifting and positioning easier.
Q: Can this system be expanded or integrated with other equipment?
A: Yes, the EKX15P includes an XLR link output for daisy-chaining additional speakers, and the EKX18SP has two XLR outputs for system expansion. You can also connect mixers, microphones, or other audio sources directly to the speakers.
Q: What are the power requirements for this system? Can it be used in different countries?
A: Each unit likely features a universal power supply supporting 100-240V, but it’s recommended to confirm with the retailer or manufacturer. Typically, Electro-Voice products have auto-sensing power supplies, making them adaptable for global use.
Q: Is this system suitable for outdoor events?
A: The EKX series is portable and can be used outdoors, but it’s not weatherproof. Protect the units from rain and extreme conditions. For temporary outdoor use, they perform well if kept dry.
Q: What is the warranty for this package?
A: DJKit offers a standard warranty, and Electro-Voice typically provides a 3-year warranty on powered loudspeakers. Check with us for the exact warranty terms for this package.
Q: Are there any accessories included besides the poles and cables?
A: The package includes 2 speaker poles and 4 XLR to XLR 6m signal cables. Additional accessories like protective covers or mounting hardware would need to be purchased separately.
