Protect RCF 15-Inch Subs with the CVR 004 Padded Cover
The RCF CVR 004 is a dedicated protection cover built to guard RCF 15-inch subwoofers from
everyday bumps, scratches, and load-out abuse. Using a 600D polyester outer fabric on a PVC base, an internal
layer of 190 T taffeta fabric on PVC base, and 10 mm foam rubber padding, it wraps your cabinet in
a padded shell that absorbs contact before it reaches the wood. A black exterior with an embroidered black logo
keeps rigs looking uniform and professional in any venue.
RCF pairs the textile build with practical access: the CVR 004 uses a zip plus Velcro closure system, and the
frontal cover can be opened and blocked with Velcro on one side. Multiple cutouts line up with the
handles, rear connection panel, and pole mount cap, so the sub can be carried, wired, and pole-mounted while the
cover is still in place where you need protection most.
Classified under protections: scratches, hits and material: nylon, the cover is also
CE compliant, supporting professional environments where documentation matters. Shipping at
90 × 650 × 650 mm with a package weight around 3.09 kg (6.81 lbs), it stores easily alongside
matching subwoofers and rides well in trucks and cases.
One CVR 004 can serve multiple core RCF subs, making it especially useful for rental houses and DJ companies rotating gear between
shows. Compatible models include the SUB 15-AS professional active subwoofer, SUB 15-AX professional active
15" subwoofer, SUB 705-AS MK3 active subwoofer, and SUB 905-AS MK3 professional powered 15"
subwoofer.

Expanded Details on the RCF CVR 004 Protection Cover
Layered Fabric and Foam Construction for Real-World Protection
The CVR 004 combines an outer 600D polyester fabric on PVC base with an internal 190 T taffeta fabric on PVC
base and 10 mm foam rubber padding. This layered design creates a tough shell that takes the brunt of
contact while a padded interior helps soften impacts. RCF explicitly lists scratches and hits among the protections,
making the cover a logical add-on for cabinets that see constant movement.
Access Points that Match RCF 15-Inch Subwoofers
Rather than a generic slip cover, the CVR 004 is cut around the needs of RCF 15-inch subs. Multiple openings line up
with the side handles, so the sub can be lifted and carried with the cover on. A dedicated opening for the
rear connection panel lets you patch XLR and power, while the pole mount cap opening preserves the
ability to run a top speaker on a pole where required.
Zip and Velcro Closure for Flexible Use On and Off Stage
The closure / opening: zip + Velcro combination balances speed and security. The main zip allows the cover to open
fully, while Velcro sections let you secure flaps in partially open positions. The frontal cover can specifically be
opened and blocked with Velcro on one side, so you can reveal the front grille while keeping the rest of the cabinet protected.
Nylon Material Classification, CE Compliance, and Visual Design
Under general specifications, the CVR 004 is listed with material: nylon and CE compliant safety
agency status. The black color and embroidered black logo keep the appearance understated, helping
the sub blend into stages, clubs, and corporate spaces while still showing the RCF brand.
Consistent Shipping Size Across Sub Fleets
Shipping dimensions of 90 mm × 650 mm × 650 mm with a package weight of 3.09 kg (6.81 lbs) make the
cover simple to stock and move. For companies supporting fleets of SUB 15-AS, SUB 15-AX, SUB 705-AS MK3, or SUB 905-AS MK3 systems,
that consistency helps with shelving, truck layout, and pull lists.
How to Deploy the RCF CVR 004 in the Field
Deploying the RCF CVR 004 begins with confirming that your cabinet is one of the compatible RCF subwoofers:
SUB 15-AS, SUB 15-AX, SUB 705-AS MK3, or SUB 905-AS MK3. Once
confirmed, place the sub on a stable surface or cart with enough room to move around it.
- Orient the CVR 004 so the embroidered logo side aligns with the front of the subwoofer.
- Slip the cover over the cabinet, guiding it down until the handle cutouts align with the side handles.
- Check that the rear connection panel opening and pole mount cap opening line up correctly.
- Use the zip and Velcro closure to secure the cover around the cabinet for transport or storage.
- At showtime, open the front flap and block it with the Velcro tab so the grille is exposed while the sides and back remain padded.
- After the event, close the flap, verify that zippers and Velcro are sealed, and move the sub with the cover still protecting it.
This routine helps keep RCF subwoofers in better condition over time, especially in workflows where cabinets are constantly being
moved between vehicles, stages, and storage areas.
Wrap your RCF 15-inch subs once with the CVR 004, line up the access points, and they stay protected from the first Chicago load-in to the last encore of the night.
