Eliminator™i.
Electro-Voice®Eliminator™i is a family of pro-grade sound
reinforcement components—full-range loudspeakers, subs,
and amp—engineered to play together as an integrated
system. Eliminator i is ideal for bands and mobile DJs who
want incredible sound without burning all their gig money
on equipment, or endlessly tweaking a complicated setup.
Just cable-up the matched Eliminator i components
and play your music.
Stolen Technology
Eliminator i systems sound great because EV®engineers
lifted some advanced technology from our touring concert
sound systems and applied them to Eliminator i components.
For example, every Eliminator i loudspeaker employs our
unique RMD®(Ring Mode Decoupling) technology which
controls the sound-mangling mechanical resonances in a
speaker. You get clean, accurate reproduction of voice and
instruments. We also took the Low Pass Notch (LPN) module
from the Electro-Voice ACOne Audio Controller and put it into
the Eliminator i amplifier. This innovative circuitry is specifical-
ly tuned for the Eliminator i loudspeaker system. Performance
takes a quantum leap. Low-end output is stunning! We’ve
given you more of what you want without adding more gear
to lug around.
Rock-Solid Core
Eliminator i amps and loudspeakers give you a professional-
level core around which you can build a really awesome, yet
affordable, sound system. Add Electro-Voice N/DYM®and
Cobalt™wired and wireless mics. Add a Venice mixer, the
kid-sister version of the monster touring consoles from
Midas. When music is your life and livelihood, don’t wreck it
with an amateur sound system. Step up to the intense,
incredible performance of Electro-Voice Eliminator i.

horn for clear, up-front sound
that cuts through difficult
acoustic environments. Black
carpeted enclosure presents
