Electro-Voice ELIMINATOR-II

The Electro-Voice® Eliminator ii™ is a high-peak output, high-efficiency two-way stage system. The dual 15 in. low-frequency/ horn-loaded constant-directivity high-frequency system incorporates elements of Ring-Mode Decoupling (RMD™). RMD techniques substantially improve vocal fundamental intelligibility and produce an “up front” tonality capable of cutting through even the most difficult acoustic environments.

The Eliminator ii™ enclosure has a unique design that presents a very minimal frontal cross section while still maintaining substantial internal volume. A newly developed handle concept allows for extremely comfortable transportation from any orientation. The design is lightweight, but very rugged and features a heavy metal grille and highly stylized corner protection.

The heart of the Eliminator ii™ ‘s high performance design is the combination of a high-excursion low-frequency suspension system with ElectroVoice’s unique Ring-Mode Decoupling. All loudspeaker drivers exhibit mechanical resonance modes that add their own time-domain or ringing-mode colorations. These colorations limit and reduce overall system intelligibility. The Eliminator ii™ uses RMD to control several fundamental ringing modes. The result is substantially improved vocal range intelligibility and system “openness”.

Two 15 inch drivers provide very high output at the lower frequencies. When extended high output low-frequency operation is required, performance can be further enhanced by biamping the Eliminator ii™ with the Eliminator i™ Sub. Vented enclosures offer excellent power handling and low distortion in the lowest octave of rate operation. However, it is always advisable to filter material below enclosure tuning to further improve system output and headroom. The Eliminator ii™ should be high-pass filtered to reduce subsonic material below 40 Hz.
