RCF ART 915-AX

The ART 915-AX is expertly designed to deliver outstanding audio performance and versatility for demanding applications. Featuring a 1.75" compression driver, a 15" woofer, a two-channel 2100W amplifier, and a constant directivity True Resistive Waveguide, it provides a coherent 100° x 60° coverage with up to 130 dB SPL of distortion-free sound. With RCF's proprietary FiRPHASE and Bass Motion Control (BMC) DSP processing, each model is finely tuned to ensure absolute clarity and deep, powerful bass response.

The ART 915-AX combines high-performance amplification with a digital audio processor for maximum flexibility. It operates seamlessly on its own or in combination with other speakers. Bluetooth® connectivity allows audio streaming and remote control, while all functions and parameters are easily accessible via an onboard color display with a capacitive touch screen and encoder, or through a dedicated app for iOS and Android devices.

Powerful Internal Digital Mixer and Advanced Bluetooth® Pairing

The ART 9-AX is the ultimate solution for portable audio applications. It features 48V powered preamps and line inputs, allowing direct connections for instruments and microphones. An internal 6-channel digital mixer includes compressors, EQs, reverb, and a ducker to optimize sound performance. For quick adjustments, step-by-step setup modes simplify the configuration process.

2100W: The Most Powerful Wireless Bluetooth® Speaker

ART 9-AX stands as the most powerful speaker in its category, even when connected wirelessly. The Class 1 Bluetooth® connection supports 2-channel audio streaming, with stereo or dual mono output for pairing with AX-enabled RCF speakers. Tested for over 100 meters (328 feet) of free-field operability, it provides a reliable wireless solution for environments where traditional signal connections are impractical.

Unmatched Power and Efficiency

With 2100W of power, the ART 9 Class-D amplifier is 50% more powerful than previous models, delivering ultra-fast attack, realistic transient response, and minimal heat loss. RCF’s advanced transducer design enhances durability and efficiency, eliminating the need for a cooling fan. The amplifier is securely attached to a solid aluminum heat exchanger for optimal thermal management. The input circuit features a low-distortion design with an advanced safety limiter, preserving the authenticity of the input signal. Designed according to EN62368-1 standards, the amplifier incorporates a high-efficiency Switch Mode Power Supply for reduced weight and maximum safety.

Total Control at Your Fingertips

The RCF LiveRemote App allows full control of the ART 9-AX mixer, DSP, FX, routing, and Bluetooth® settings. Adjust volume levels, EQ, compressors, and effects, save and recall presets, and customize your sound system from any Android or iOS device.

Advanced Features for Professional Users

The internal mixer simplifies all routing needs, while an integrated crossover ensures compatibility with any subwoofer. A built-in 5-band parametric EQ helps manage acoustically challenging environments, and an output delay feature keeps your sound perfectly synchronized. Wireless pairing with another ART 9-AX provides a practical solution for setups where running signal cables is not an option.

The ART 915-AX is the perfect choice for audio professionals who demand superior sound quality, flexibility, and wireless convenience in a high-powered speaker system.
