Electro-Voice EVID-S8.2B - 2-Way Passive Full-Range Loudspeaker (8", IP54) for Surface Mounting - Black (Pair)

Electro-Voice EVID-S8.2B - 2-Way Passive Full-Range Loudspeaker (8", IP54) for Surface Mounting - Black (Pair)

The Electro-Voice EVID-S8.2B is an 8" surface-mount installation loudspeaker designed for background/foreground music, paging, and indoor/outdoor sound reinforcement. Its 2-way design combines a long-throw 8" polypropylene cone woofer with a 1" ferrofluid-cooled HF driver , coupled with an integrated waveguide to deliver uniform 90° × 90° coverage with crystal-clear clarity. The paintable flame-retardant ABS enclosure and powder-coated steel grille ensure IP54 environmental resistance and compliance with IEC tests (solar radiation, salt spray, SO₂, and chlorine). It is supplied with a pre-mounted SmartMount bracket , allowing the loudspeaker to be aimed 90° horizontally and 45° vertically on a wall or ceiling.

It delivers 90W continuous / 360W peak into 8 Ω (min. 6 Ω), 90dB sensitivity (average 100Hz–10kHz) and a calculated maximum SPL of 110dB (116dB peak). The response extends from 50Hz to 20kHz (-10dB) / 70Hz to 20kHz (-3dB) , so it adequately covers both voice and music. Connectivity via two 4-pin Euroblock connectors (input/output) , integrated into the support, speeds up wiring and allows speakers to be linked on the same line. It is sold in pairs and is available in black (RAL 9004) , with a paintable finish for impeccable aesthetic integration.

Main features

• Transducers: LF 8" (polypropylene, long travel) + HF 1" (ferrofluid) with integrated waveguide.
• Constant coverage: 90° × 90° (−6 dB) for homogeneous dispersion in small and medium-sized rooms.
• Acoustic performance: 50–20 kHz (−10 dB) / 70–20 kHz (−3 dB); 110 dB SPL max. (116 dB peak).
• Power/impedance: 90 W continuous (IEC 60268-5) / 360 W peak; 8 Ω nominal (min. 6 Ω ).
• Construction and durability: Paintable, flame- resistant ABS enclosure; powder-coated zinc-plated steel grille .
• Environmental resistance: IP54 (IEC 60529) and IEC 60068-2-5 (solar radiation), -11 (salt mist), -42 (SO₂) and -60 (chlorine) tests.
• Quick installation: SmartMount bracket included, 90° H / 45° V ; captive hardware and protected cable pass-through.
• Professional connections: 2 × Euroblock 4 pin (in/out) for linking multiple units.
• Recommended filter: high-pass at 50 Hz (24 dB/oct) for maximum reliability.
• Supply format: sold as a pair ; black (RAL 9004) , paintable.

Product benefits

• Clear and consistent sound with wide coverage, ideal for BGM/FGM, voiceover and vocal reinforcement.
• Aesthetic integration into architectural projects thanks to its compact size and paintable finish.
• Agile implementation : pre-assembled support, precise orientation and in/out connectors for linking zones.
• Reliability in demanding environments due to its construction and environmental resistance certifications.

Use cases

• Restaurants and retail with high-quality background/foreground music.
• Hotels, fitness, and education with uniform coverage and high intelligibility.
• Semi-outdoor spaces (covered terraces, patios) within IP54 conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Does it include a mount? Yes. It comes with a pre-mounted SmartMount bracket and a 5mm Allen key.
• Is it sold individually? No. The EVID-S8.2B is sold in pairs .
• Is there a 70/100 V version? Yes, the EVID-S8.2T model includes a transformer for constant voltage lines.
• Is it paintable? Yes. The enclosure and grille can be painted to match the decor.
