Electro Voice EVOLVE 50 G2 White System kolumn PA

Pro Column Sound in a One-Minute Setup

The Electro-Voice EVOLVE 50 G2 White is the second-generation evolution of one of the most recognized portable column array systems on the live-sound market. Built for mobile DJs, wedding and corporate event crews, and solo performers, this white-finished system pairs a 12-inch ported subwoofer with a column of eight 3.5-inch neodymium drivers. The result is 1,500 watts of Class-D power, 129 dB of maximum SPL, and bass extension down to 37 Hz — enough headroom for a packed dance floor or a 200-seat ceremony room.

What Sets This Column System Apart

Two design choices make this model stand out in its category. The first is the magnet-seated distance pole and gravity-locking column array — no cables to thread between sub and tower, no tools required. The second is the QuickSmart Link port, which lets two EVOLVE systems be joined with a standard Ethernet cable for synchronized stereo operation. A laminar-flow vent design on the subwoofer enhances low-frequency efficiency, while 30 onboard effects, automatic music ducking, and Advanced Feedback Suppression (AFS) are accessible from the rear-panel color LCD.

Power, SPL, and Low-End Reach

Headroom is the headline number for any portable PA.

• Power Output: 1,500 W Class-D — enough reserve for larger rooms and busier dance floors.
• Maximum SPL reaches 129 dB, up to 2 dB more than the previous generation.
• Frequency Range: 37 Hz – 20 kHz (-10 dB) — full-range response that lets the sub carry kick drums and basslines on its own.

Driver Configuration and Coverage

The column array is the acoustic heart of any column system, and this one uses eight neodymium high-frequency drivers arranged through a proprietary waveguide for wide horizontal dispersion and controlled down-tilt. The plywood subwoofer cabinet and composite column enclosure keep the system's weight manageable without sacrificing road-worthy durability.

• HF Drivers: 8 x 3.5-inch neodymium — light, magnet-efficient drivers that keep the column's weight manageable for one-person load-in.
• The LF section uses a 12-inch woofer in a ported enclosure with a laminar-flow vent for cleaner low-end output.
• Coverage Pattern: 120° H x 40° V — even, detailed sound across the entire listening area.

Connectivity, DSP, and Wireless Control

Modern portable PA buyers expect app-based control, phantom power for condenser mics, and flexible input options.

• Inputs: Bluetooth, 2 x MIC/Line Combo (XLR/Jack), 3.5 mm stereo jack, RCA stereo — covers microphones, instruments, playback devices, and wireless streaming.
• Outputs: XLR mix out, QuickSmart Link — feed a second speaker or recording device with one cable.
• Wireless control via QuickSmart App 3.0 over Bluetooth — full DSP, 7-band EQ, voicing modes, 30 effects, and over-the-air firmware updates from a phone or tablet.

Who This Column System Is Built For

This column system is the right choice for mobile DJs, wedding and corporate event providers, and solo acoustic performers who need a single-rig solution that scales from a 50-person ceremony to a 300-person reception. Solo entertainers benefit from switchable 48 V phantom power for condenser vocal mics and 30 onboard effects for adding polish to a guitar or vocal channel. Production companies will appreciate the QuickSmart App 3.0 — it lets one operator mix from anywhere in the room, save presets per event, and update firmware without a computer.

Electro-Voice and the EVOLVE Lineage

The EVOLVE series is Electro-Voice's family of portable column arrays. The G2 generation answers the most consistent feedback from the EVOLVE community — more output, more DSP, and easier wireless control — while keeping the magnetic pole-mount and gravity-locking column that made the original a favorite among working DJs and event crews.
