RCF ART 915-AX 15″ 2100W Active Speaker with Bluetooth
The ART 9 AX is an incredibly flexible tool for live events and presentations or venues like leisure centres or schools looking for a flexible solution without compromising on power. The ART 9 AX range comes fitted with the same cabinet, construction and advanced DSP, FiRPHASE and Bass Motion Control as the ART 9 series. The AX series features 6-in, 2-out stereo digital mixer & output processing as well as Bluetooth® and a Colour display with capacitive touch for Audio Streaming and Control.
The advanced woofer excursion management increases linearity and improves bass punch with a radical new approach. BMC extends the lowest audible frequency without affecting the transducer’s stability, limiting over-excursions for greater reliability and superior performance at high volume levels.
With 2100 Watts of power, the 2-channel ART 9 Class-D amplifier is 50% more powerful than previous models, able to manage extremely high sound pressure levels with an ultra-fast attack, realistic transient response, and very low heat loss.
