The Electro-Voice Xi series offers potent combination of high output and ultra-linear performance in two-way systems. Xi series loudspeakers incorporate the acoustic advantages of ring-mode decoupling (RMD) and feature HP constant directivity waveguides to secure excellent directivity control and even coverage. To achieve sound performance without compromise, the Xi Series is designed for active operation, with the exception of the Xi-1082, which contains passive crossover network. Xi loudspeaker cabinets are made of 18 mm, 13-ply birch plywood finished in a black EVCoat and protected by full-face, steel front grille that is backed with foam. All systems except the Xi-1082 have integrated handles and two L-tracks on the top and bottom.
