Comprising the FM6.2 (6" woofer, 6" tuned passive radiator, 1" tweeter) and the FM4.2 (4" woofer, 4" tuned passive radiator, 1" tweeter), the new members of the EVID product family offer "a combination of superb audio quality, sturdy sealed unit construction, and aesthetically pleasing in-wall design".
All components are housed in a shallow, fully-sealed enclosure for consistent performance and sound isolation from adjacent rooms. This low profile design also gives the FM series increased structural integrity: the specially designed ribbed back can eliminate flexing; the transformer is mounted on the back can surface, further enhancing stiffness.
Minimal enclosure depth and four-point quick mounting tabs make the FM series a streamlined sound reinforcement solution for any architectural environment, offering quick and easy installation into any wall cavity, adds the company.
The FM6.2 provides high power handling in a compact package, making it suitable for larger rooms; FM4.2 provides similar performance for small and mid-sized rooms. Either 70v/100v or 8 ohm operation is standard on both models, so there is no need to buy or stock special versions. Secure phoenix-style pass-through connectors offer easy wiring and installation.
