Electro-Voice®'s unique EVI Vari Intense® (VI) speakers are engineered to eliminate the need for additional long-throw horns or delayed sources in many rooms. The EVI Vari Intense® series provides an economical solution for permanent installations that require coverage over a rectangular area. In a typical room, the distance from the loudspeaker to the last row is two or more times that to the front row, resulting in a substantial loss in level and intelligibility at the rear. The VI horn delivers 6 to 8 dB more SPL to the back of the room, overcoming the level loss without resorting to the expense and complexity of additional speaker systems or components. The problem is old; EV®'s solution is new. EVI is perfect for conference centers, houses of worship, halls, and other venues where evenly distributed SPL is essential. EVI systems are made of 18 mm 13-ply birch plywood (EVI 28: 12 mm 9-ply), texture-painted with a powder-coated metal grille.

A simple 3-2-1 rule-of-thumb applies for determining EVI coverage patterns: The pattern's width will equal twice the height of the room, and the pattern's length will equal three times the height.
