Electro-Voice ZLX-12P-G2: The Do-Everything 12

The ZLX-12P-G2 works as a main PA on a stand or subwoofer pole, a floor wedge on its side, or a kickback monitor, with tailored EQ for each position. Its 12-inch woofer delivers fuller bass than the 8-inch model while staying easy to carry at 32.7 pounds.

Built-In Mixer and DSP

The digital mixer adds effects, EQ, automatic feedback suppression, and a ducker that lowers music when someone speaks. QuickSmart DSP provides presets, sub/top matching, input and output EQ, user presets, and limiter monitoring on the full-color LCD.

Setting Up the ZLX-12P-G2

Mount the speaker on a stand or sub pole, or lay it on its side as a monitor. Connect microphones, instruments, or a mixer to the combo inputs, pair your phone over Bluetooth, and select a preset on the LCD or in the QuickSmart Mobile app.

What to Pair With the ZLX-12P-G2

Pair the ZLX-12P-G2 with a second ZLX-12P-G2 for stereo, an EV powered subwoofer, a speaker stand, XLR cables, vocal microphones, and a padded cover.

Bluetooth and App Control

Stream music wirelessly, link two speakers for True Wireless Stereo, and configure and monitor up to six ZLX G2 speakers from the QuickSmart Mobile app, with alerts during critical conditions.

SST Waveguide

EV’s Signal Synchronized Transducers design provides precise, consistent coverage, minimal distortion, and tight, compact bass, so every seat hears the same balanced sound.

Rugged and Portable

A durable polypropylene enclosure, powder-coated 18-gauge steel grille, and high/low grip handles make transport and mounting easy.

Choosing the Right ZLX G2

The 8-inch ZLX-8P-G2 is lightest for speech and small rooms, the 12-inch ZLX-12P-G2 balances size and output for most gigs, and the 15-inch ZLX-15P-G2 adds deeper bass and more output for larger spaces.

Feedback-Free Speech

Automatic feedback suppression finds and removes ringing frequencies, while the ducker automatically lowers background music when a presenter speaks, making the ZLX-12P-G2 easy for non-technical users at schools, churches, and corporate events.

Adding a Subwoofer

Pair the ZLX-12P-G2 with a powered subwoofer and use the sub/top matching preset so the 12-inch woofer can focus on vocals and midrange, for more headroom and deeper bass from the whole system.
