10-Inch Workhorse for Clear, Room-Filling Sound
The RCF ART 710-A MK5 is an active two-way loudspeaker built for venues that demand output and clarity without bulk. A 1.75" compression driver projects vocals with authority, while the 10" woofer stays linear for tight, controlled lows. With 129 dB Max SPL and a 90°×70° constant-directivity horn, coverage stays consistent from the dance floor to the back wall.
Under the hood, precision transducers pair with advanced DSP handling crossover, EQ, phase control, soft limiting, and protections. FiRPHASE maintains time coherence for natural imaging across the audience, and XBoost engages deeper perceived bass when the box runs full-range.
A 1400 W peak Class-D amplifier provides fast transient response and high efficiency. The fan-less, convection-cooled aluminum structure stabilizes the amp and aids heat dissipation during long sets.
Integration is straightforward: balanced XLR/Jack input, XLR link out, MIC/Line sensitivity switch, and a Flat/XBoost EQ toggle. Deploy on a 35 mm pole, angle as a stage monitor, or use the M10 points with manufacturer hardware for installs.
Real-World Applications and Sound Roles:
- Mobile DJ top for weddings, corporate, and socials
- Main or fill in neighborhood clubs and bars
- Speech-first A/V in presentation spaces
- Wedge monitor for performers and MCs
- Satellite top over a compact subwoofer

- Status LEDs: Power confirms the unit is on; Signal shows input presence.
- Protections: Soft limiter plus thermal and RMS management maintain reliability at show volume.
Class-D Headroom, Fan-Less Reliability
The ART 710-A MK5 delivers 1400 W peak via a high-efficiency Class-D module. Its aluminum structure doubles as a heat sink for convection cooling, keeping performance stable through long sets without a fan.
1.75" HF Driver for Clean, Confident Highs
The redesigned 1.75" voice-coil compression driver improves durability and transient detail, projecting vocals and keys with clarity that cuts through busy rooms.
10" Woofer with Tight, Musical Punch
Engineered for a linear LF response and strong thermal handling, the 10" transducer delivers punch without smear—ideal for dance music and live playback.
FiRPHASE Alignment, Natural Imaging
FiRPHASE filtering aligns phase through the crossover, preserving stereo image and ensuring the tonal balance heard at the console translates across the audience area.
XBoost: Fuller Bass When You Need It
Toggle XBoost on the rear panel to increase the perception of bass while keeping woofer excursion under control—perfect for full-range DJ sets or warm background music.
Rugged Cabinet and Mounting Options
The PP composite enclosure resists vibration at high SPLs. Carry via the top handle, mount on a 35 mm pole, angle as a wedge, or use the 2 × M10 points with approved hardware.
How to Deploy RCF ART 710-A MK5 in the Field
Pole Mount: Place the 35 mm socket on a stable stand or sub pole. Aim the 90°×70° horn to cover the audience; keep horn height above heads for clarity.
Stage Monitor: Use the cabinet’s angled side. Start with moderate level, watch the limiter LED, and trim EQ around vocal presence for gain before feedback.
Full-Range vs. With Sub: Run Flat when crossed to a sub. Engage XBoost for full-range gigs that need added warmth without a subwoofer.
Signal & Linking: Feed the balanced XLR/Jack input; select MIC or Line as appropriate. Use the XLR link to daisy-chain to another top or fill.
Power & Regions: Confirm the correct part number for your mains: 13000822 (220–240 V) or 13000853 (100–120 V).
Fast setup, reliable output—ART 710-A MK5 covers the room with confident mids and controllable lows.
