Hello, I was wondering if there are any Electro-Voice "Interface" owners out there. This was a consumer line of speakers that EV came out with in the early Eighties. I own a pair of Interface One speakers that I bought used from a record store that was going out of business and had them in their stereo setup. They were an "Interface" dealer as well. So I was able to see all the other models etc... and get literature/info on them. (I still have the literature!) They probably retailed for around $400 back in '80, and I bought them for $150 in '83! I've used these babys for almost twenty years as regular stereo speakers as well as home studio monitors to record music. The only thing I've had to do to them is have the woofers refoamed and replace the "acoustical tweeter lenses" which somehow affected the tweeter performance. They are basically thin foam rings that went around the tweeter. Probably for dispersion measures. EV still makes a speaker similar to this called the Sentry 100A which is sold to the professional studio markets. It uses the exact woofer/tweeter setup as mine. Anybody else like to share some stories about this short lived speaker line? |
