Electro-Voice TX1122 - 12” (90° × 50°) Passive Full-Range Loudspeaker Tour X Series

Electro-Voice TX1122 - 12” (90° × 50°) Passive Full-Range Loudspeaker Tour X Series

The Electro-Voice TX1122 is a compact , passive 2-way system from the Tour X series that combines high sound quality, efficiency and a robust design for portable use or fixed installation. It integrates a 12” SMX2120 woofer with low distortion and a DH3 compression driver with a 1.25” titanium diaphragm , coupled to a 90° × 50° constant directivity horn that offers pattern control and uniformity in short and medium throw applications. The trapezoidal enclosure is constructed of wood (plywood + MDF) with EVCoat coating for maximum strength, and incorporates ergonomic multi-grip handle(s) , a 35mm (1 3/8”) tripod mount and six 3/8” threaded suspension points .

With 97 dB sensitivity and 500 W continuous / 2000 W peak into 8 Ω , the TX1122 achieves a calculated maximum SPL of 130 dB . Its frequency response extends from 45 Hz to 20 kHz (-10 dB) ( 60–20 kHz at -3 dB ), and the manufacturer recommends a high-pass cutout at 45 Hz for transducer protection. The recessed connection panel offers 2 × Neutrik Speakon NL4 in parallel and allows joint use with the TX1181 subwoofer on the same amplification channel when a fast solution is required using the sub's internal low-pass filter.

Main features

Product benefits

• Clarity and intelligibility: The SMX2120 + DH3 array and 90° × 50° horn maintain off-axis response and reduce distortion.
• High performance with moderate stages: 97 dB sensitivity and crossover engineering allow high levels to be achieved efficiently.
• Versatile deployment: suitable for tripod, suspension with 3/8” and combined use with TX1181 / TX2181 in sub/top configurations.
• Touring Durability: EVCoat wood enclosure with 16 GA grille to withstand heavy use.

Use cases

• Main PA in halls, classrooms, places of worship and corporate events.
• Portable systems for bands and DJs requiring frequent setup/teardown.
• Column stacked with subwoofer (e.g. TX1181 ) using a mast.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the horn rotatable? The TX1122 uses a 90° × 50° constant directivity waveguide ; the manufacturer doesn't specify rotation for this model.
• Can it be used on a standard tripod? Yes, it includes a 1 3/8” (≈ 35 mm) tripod/mount shoe .
• Can it be hung? It has six 3/8" threaded mounting points ; always use certified hardware and comply with current regulations.
• What high-pass filter is recommended? 45 Hz to protect the system in demanding applications.
