ZLX G2 Portable Loudspeakers

The Next Generations of the World's Best-Selling Portable Speakers

ZLX G2 brings true Electro-Voice sound to working musicians, DJs and venues at a price that makes sense — more output than the original, a new 8-inch size, and app control from anywhere in the room. Go powered for all-in-one simplicity, or passive for amp-driven rigs.

ZLX-8P G2 — 8″ Powered

New this generation, the 8P is made for tight stages, classes and coffee-shop sets, where you set up in minutes and you're the one doing it. 1,000 W behind the patented SST baffle keeps coverage even and the low end real out of a box this size. The mixer's built in, powered by Dynacord: FX, feedback suppression, two combo inputs, nothing else to carry. Stream over Bluetooth, run up to six speakers from the QuickSmart Mobile app. For 6am classes & midnight sets.

ZLX-12P G2 — 12″ Powered

ZLX-12P G2 · 12″ Powered. The one most people take home: the do-everything 12 that covers the whole gig. Vocals over a band, a packed floor, Sunday service. The 12P balances output, low end and weight, and that's why it leads the family. It's still 1,000 W, and it goes louder and wider than the original ZLX. Five system modes: Music, Live, Speech, Club and FRFR Guitar for modeler rigs. A 55° monitor angle and a 23° kickback mean it works the floor as well as the stand. For Friday nights & Sunday mornings.

ZLX-15P G2 — 15″ Powered

The big-room one: full-range mains with headroom to spare. Bigger floors, outdoor sets, DJ rigs that want serious low end. The 15P puts 1,000 W behind a 15″ woofer, so you get reach and bass before a sub enters the conversation. When you do add one, the subwoofer presets set gain and time alignment for you. Same Dynacord-powered mixer, Bluetooth streaming and app control as the rest of the powered line. For dance floors & load-outs.

ZLX-8 G2 — 8″ Passive

The compact fixed-install one: EV sound for tight corners and wall brackets. Built for bars and restaurants that run from an amp rack, where the box has to disappear into the room and still cover it. You get 250 W continuous in the smallest ZLX G2 cabinet, with the patented SST baffle keeping coverage even from the corner table to the back wall. Presets are already in the SONICUE speaker database, so the Dynacord DSP amp knows the box before you power it up. For bar tops & bracket mounts.

ZLX-15 G2 — 15″ Passive

The full-size passive: 15″ of cone for permanent rooms and touring racks. The biggest box in the ZLX G2 range, for installs and inventories that have to deliver night after night, driven by the amps you already own. Dual parallel NL4 connectors pass all four poles through, so you chain boxes off one run instead of pulling a cable per cabinet. The patented SST baffle keeps coverage even at full size. Presets are already in the SONICUE speaker database, so the amp's dialed in before the box leaves the shop. For flight cases & fixed grids.
