RCF ART 915-A 15" Active PA Speaker

Full Description

Power that resonates

The RCF ART 915-A delivers unmatched power in its category with a 2100W Class-D bi-amplification system. This power capability allows it to handle extremely high sound pressure levels with precision. The amplifier's high efficiency also eliminates the need for a cooling fan, incorporating a solid aluminum heat exchanger instead. This design not only reduces operational noise but also enhances the amplifier's durability by keeping it cool and stable at all times.

Advanced acoustic engineering

Featuring RCF’s proprietary FiRPHASE technology, the ART 915-A offers superior sound alignment by managing sound waves’ phase without altering their amplitude. This results in a clear, coherent sound across the listening area. The True Resistive Waveguide technology further aids in distributing sound uniformly, providing 100° x 60° consistent directivity and improved stereo imaging, essential for professional live and playback scenarios.

Bass that moves you

The Bass Motion Control (BMC) feature is a revolutionary approach to managing low frequencies. By replacing traditional high-pass filters with a custom algorithm that manages woofer excursions, the ART 915-A can reproduce deep, impactful bass without risking transducer damage or performance integrity. This technology ensures the speaker performs reliably even when pushing the boundaries of low-frequency output.

Durability meets design

RCF does not compromise on build quality. The ART 915-A’s cabinet is constructed from a high-strength polypropylene composite material and reinforced internally with an M-brace, augmenting acoustical damping and structural integrity. This design allows the speaker to withstand the rigors of touring and frequent use without compromising on aesthetic or functional aspects. The heavy-duty grille and multiple rigging points further enhance its usability in diverse setups, from truss mounts to floor stands.
