Which EVID surface speaker for my space?
- Small rooms, patios, covered walkways: EVID-S4.2TB.
- Restaurants, shops, gyms: EVID-S5.2TB.
- Exposed outdoor, coastal sites or voice alarm (EN 54-24): EVID-S5.2XB.
- Lawns, plazas, marriage halls, bars, large outdoor areas: EVID-S8.2TB or EVID-S8.2TW (50 Hz, 110 dB).
