Positioned in EVs ZX series between the 8-inch ZX1 and the 15-inch ZX5, the ZX3 delivers an unprecedented level of performance for a lightweight 12-inch two-way loudspeaker, suitable for the widest variety of portable and installed applications. It features EV's new DVX3121 12-inch woofer and ND2 neodymium compression driver, and continues the groundbreaking innovation of the Electro-Voice DVX woofer program.

A complete range of optional accessories, including array kit, wall/ceiling mount bracket, handle adapter for use with a strong arm mount, and truss clamp adapter, allow the ZX3 to be easily and precisely configured in multiple box arrays, mounted on truss or tripods, deployed as monitors, or used as system mains with a subwoofer.

Housed in a stylish yet rugged injection molded enclosure, this speaker shares the same functionality as the larger ZX5, with 90° x 50° or 60° x 60° horn dispersion patterns, 45° or 55° monitor angles, passive or bi-amp operation, and seven M8 rigging points. ZX3 is available in a weatherized version and in either black or white finish. An optional heavy duty stackable cover is also available.
