Q: What type of events is this power pack suited for?
A: It’s perfect for large venues like concert halls, festivals, or outdoor events, with 11,600W and 136 dB SPL capability to cover big crowds.
Q: Do I need additional equipment to use this system?
A: No, it’s a complete package with speakers, subs, and cables. You’ll only need a mixer or audio source to get started.
Q: How portable is this system?
A: Each component is heavy (ETX-35P at 38.2 kg, ETX-18SP at 51.8 kg), so while manageable with handles, transporting all six units may require a team or cart.
Q: Can I use the cardioid feature with the four subs?
A: Yes, the four ETX-18SP subs can be configured in cardioid mode via DSP to direct bass forward and reduce stage noise.
Q: Is it easy to set up for someone new to PA systems?
A: The FIR-Drive DSP simplifies tuning with presets, but its scale and complexity might require some audio knowledge for optimal use.
Q: Can this be used outdoors?
A: Yes, for temporary outdoor events, but it’s not weatherproof, protect it from rain and extreme conditions.
Q: What’s the warranty period?
A: Electro-Voice typically offers a 3-year warranty on powered speakers, though confirm with us for exact terms.
Q: Are poles included for mounting the ETX-35P on the subs?
A: No, speaker poles (e.g., ASP-58) are not included and must be purchased separately.
Q: How does it handle bass-heavy music like EDM?
A: With four 18" subs reaching down to 28 Hz and 7200W of sub power, it excels at delivering deep, impactful bass for EDM or similar genres.
Q: Can I expand this system further?
A: Yes, the XLR outputs on both the ETX-35P and ETX-18SP allow for additional speakers or subs to be connected.
