Electro-Voice Introduces New Low-Profile FRi Series Loudspeaker

Electro-Voice is displaying the FRi-28LPM low-profile monitor at AES. The FRi-28LPM is a two-way full-range passive floor monitor system in a unique slant-sided enclosure. The 250-watt FRi-28LPM includes dual eight-inch woofers and a one-inch/25 mm voice coil compression driver on a 100-degree x 100-degree constant-directivity horn.

"The FRi-28LPM adds to the very successful line of FRi and our new FRi+ loudspeakers," says Mike Torlone, product category manager, speakers and MI products. "Perfect for houses of worship, live clubs, discos, gymnasiums or a host of other applications, the FRi-28LPM is ideally suited for those venues where space and aesthetics dictate floor monitor size."

The FRi-28LPM utilizes EV's exclusive RMD (Ring-Mode Decoupling) to provide outstanding vocal clarity and intelligibility in a cost-effective two-way system. The versatile, compact enclosure features a low-profile cabinet design with non-skid rubber footing. Additionally, the 100-degree x 100-degree horn pattern allows broad coverage for near field applications.

The Fri-28LPM is priced at $718.
