The RCF ART 715-A MK5 is an active two-way speaker that pairs a high-power 15" woofer with a 1.75" compression driver for punchy lows and articulate highs. With a constant-directivity 90° x 60° horn and 130 dB Max SPL, it projects evenly across wide rooms while staying composed at show volume.
A 1400 W peak Class-D amplifier and onboard DSP handle crossover, equalization, phase control, soft limiting, and protections, so mixes stay clear as you push level. Engage XBoost from the rear panel when running full-range to enhance perceived low end without sacrificing control. FiRPHASE processing supports time-coherent imaging that translates on busy dance floors and in corporate rooms alike.
The polypropylene composite cabinet resists vibration, with steel grille protection, a 35 mm pole mount, dual side handles, a top carry, and M10 hardware points for flexible deployment, including wedge monitoring.
The high-power 15" transducer with a 2.5" voice coil provides strong, linear bass and articulate mid-bass—ideal for modern dance music and live program material.
The updated 1.75" voice-coil design with Polyimide-Kapton dome and reinforced ribs improves durability and transient response, enhancing vocal presence and intelligibility.
1400 W peak amplification delivers fast attack and reliable output. DSP-controlled limiting and Thermal/RMS protections safeguard the system during long shows.
FiRPHASE filtering supports coherent, time-aligned playback for natural imaging. XBoost adds perceptual low-frequency depth when you need more weight without a sub.
The polypropylene composite cabinet is engineered to quell vibrations at high volume. Steel grille protection, a 35 mm pole mount, top and side handles, and M10 points support safe, flexible deployment.
Set mains on 35 mm stands or on subwoofer poles with horns at or slightly above audience ear height. Angle inward for dance floors; keep cabinets forward of microphones when used as PA to maximize gain-before-feedback. For wedge duty, place the cabinet on its monitor side and start in Flat mode; add XBoost sparingly if more body is needed for keys or playback.
Keep limiter activity brief, aim coverage where people stand, and let FiRPHASE preserve clarity across the room.
