ZLX G2 Portable Loudspeakers

The Next Generations of the World's Best-Selling Portable Speakers

ZLX G2 brings true Electro-Voice sound to working musicians, DJs and venues at a price that makes sense — more output than the original, a new 8-inch size, and app control from anywhere in the room. Go powered for all-in-one simplicity, or passive for amp-driven rigs.

ZLX-8P G2 — 8″ Powered

The grab-and-go one — full EV sound in a box you carry one-handed.

New to the family this generation, the 8P is built for tight stages, classes and coffee-shop sets where setup time is measured in minutes.

  • 1,000 W of onboard power with the patented SST baffle — even coverage and real bass from a compact box

  • Built-in digital mixer, powered by Dynacord: FX, feedback suppression and two combo inputs, no outboard gear

  • Bluetooth streaming and QuickSmart App control for up to six speakers

For: fitness & activity instructors · solo performers · bars & cafés

ZLX-12P G2 — 12″ Powered

The one most people take home — the do-everything 12 that covers the whole gig.

  • 1,000 W with higher max SPL and wider frequency response than the original ZLX

  • Five system modes — Music, Live, Speech, Club and FRFR Guitar for modeler rigs

  • 55° monitor angle plus a 23° kickback, so it works the floor as well as the stand

For: DJs · gigging musicians & bands · houses of worship

  • Subwoofer presets set gain and time alignment automatically when you add one

  • The same Dynacord-powered mixer, Bluetooth streaming and app control as the whole powered line
