Electro-Voice EVOLVE 30M VS 50M Portable Powered Column Speakers Details and Best Uses

[@djmattames]

A video like this has been historically very hard to find--most tend to only compare the 30M and the older, "standard" 50. Thank you for producing and posting this!

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

[@marcossuazo5428]

The clearest video on these two products! Thanks for taking the time to make and share this.

[@Taylor___]

@1:15 GENIUS! Now that was designed by somebody who does gigs.

[@JustenHarden]

Do both poles have to be used for the 30m to be used? Or could you just use 1 pole and make it shorter? Have a low ceiling area I’m considering using it for

[@cpfwriter]

Oddly enough yes, you need both poles to support and connect to the driver top. EV does sell a one-piece short pole, which is often advertised as an accessory for the 50 and 50m, but works on the 30m as well. It is *very* short.

Wow! Great video! Thx!

[@maartje4284]

i was wondering when you're playing Bluetooth on you're iPhone and youre app uses the wifi for the controller, can the music still be streamed?or do you need a second device for the controlling

[@didiervalerio2246]

When is evolve bringing up a new set ? I think they improve their technology and the 30Ms excist for more then 7 years now .. isn’t it better just to wait for the newest technology speakers they are developing now ?

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

We have no knowledge of any new versions of these products. It all depends how long you are willing to wait.

[@didiervalerio2246]

Would you recommend 2x 30M or 1 50M ?

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

2x30m would be better@@didiervalerio2246

[@IkechiOnyenaka]

Would one Evolve 50m work for a live band(5-Piece) performance in a small music venue(75-100 Capacity)?

[@MyVinnyp]

Yep.

[@murlyn2]

A 30m would be more than enough for that scenario

[@nicholasmutooto9309]

My Ev 30 went into amp protect. How do I fix it

[@Marthins1]

Thank you, then if connect 2 units 50M through the Quick Smart Link with Ethernet cable, and connect a guitar in one 50M and another guitar in another 50M, then each of the 2 guitars will be heard by 2 units, is so?

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

Thanks for the comment!

[@keitholsen4630]

Can I use my soundtrack mixer with the ev50

[@DonaHannah-x8k]

Not one person on KZbin test the vocals with reverb & delay. Why is that. Is there something wrong

[@odessa7799]

Hi. Is the quality of sound different in 30 and 50. And same about the sub

[@madness8556]

The 50M obviously sounds louder and fuller with more high end sparkle and low end umph. However the 50M certainly doesn't sound twice a good as 30M. The smaller unit stood up to the bigger one when I tested both side by side before opting for a pair of Evolve 30Ms.

[@artoftouringpodcast6675]

Can you connect two 30M's together? Or do you need a 50M to connect to either a 30m or another 50m?

[@madness8556]

You can do both using an XLR cable.

[@Marthins1]

@@madness8556 In that case, by connecting two 30M together with an XLR cable, the receiving unit would not be able to receive inputs, would it?

[@cpfwriter]

@@Marthins1 It would, though bear in mind one of those inputs would be taken up by the XLR from the Main out (for example) into 30m #2. But you'd have to operate the two units separate from each other. In contrast the 50m link allows you to run two 50ms from a single unified EV Quicsmart app

[@treyjohnsonmusic]

Can you chain a 30m to a 50m?

[@djadjoa9517]

Would you recommend two 30ms for wedding up to 150 people?

[@djresqvideomix]

no, even the 50m is not powerfull enough for 150 people

[@Koga-Ed]

What if your microphone needs 48V phantom power ?

[@borg386]

Great! Now how about 30m vs 2 everse 8s? I'm torn!

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

What application are you using these in most often? 2 units is better if you want to spread out your sound or link in a large room

[@borg386]

@DIGITALDJGEAR Hello! Mostly house karaoke parties and an occasional karaoke bar gig. I like the idea of having 4 microphones available so more folks can sing at the same time. But the portability and battery power option is always good. I'm leaning more towards 2 30ms in the long run. I have only one now, but my big issue still is how to get vocals to a second speaker? The music transfers fine, but the vocals will not. Thanks for the reply. I'm binging on all your videos right now. Thanks for making them.

[@didiervalerio2246]

Would you recommend 2x 30M or 1 50M ? and whats the big difference about the 50 and 50M

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

I would definitely recommend a pair of 30m over a 50m. The 50m includes a mixer on the back of the unit.

[@johnnypalma2585]

I have since more than 4 years one EVOLVE50. I've been used my single EVOLVE50 for small private events (usually ~60 people, rarely about 1000. I am thinking to buy an EVOLVE30M so that just one speaker would be enough for small events and with portability advantage and I would combine the 2 (EVOLVE 50 + EVOLVE30M) for bigger events. Is it a good option or should I buy my 2nd EVOLVE50M? I am also thinking to buy 2x EVOLVE30M and resale my old EVOLVE50. Who could help me to decide.

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

These are all good ideas really depends on your needs. 2x 50M would have you covered in almost any situation though!

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Weight difference of sub section?

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

30M Sub: 34.9 lb (15.8 kg) 50M Sub: 44.66 lb (20.3 kg)

[@madness8556]

The weight and size difference is considerable for those of us with back issues!

[@WWeiss-nv5vz]

Yes, 10 lbs difference can be the straw that breaks the camel's back!@@madness8556

[@DonaHannah-x8k]

Where the demo to here the quality of the reverb

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

Thanks for the comment! Unfortunately we did not get a chance to check the reverb in this video.

[@plasticsouldotnet]

Is 15v sufficient for phantom power?

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

No phantom power requires 48v.

[@Earthcitizen4609]

U got some expensive prices

[@DIGITALDJGEAR]

Thanks for the comment! Every comment helps!

[@DonaHannah-x8k]

All they do is talk none of them demo tge vocals
