The RCF ART-915A 2-way powered speaker delivers exceptional clarity, power and flexibility, redefining performance standards for professional audio applications. Equipped with a 15" woofer and a 1.75" compression driver, this speaker offers a linear frequency response of 45Hz–20kHz and up to 131dB SPL of distortion-free sound. Its 2,100W Class-D bi-amplification system ensures ample headroom and ultrafast transients, while the True Resistive Waveguide produces consistent 100° x 60° coverage. Combining RCF's FiRPHASE and Bass Motion Control DSP technology, it achieves precise phase alignment and deep, controlled bass. Whether used as a standalone PA, stage monitor or part of a flown array, the ART-915A provides unmatched reliability and power in a sleek, durable enclosure.

Advanced DSP for Pristine Audio Clarity

This powered speaker incorporates RCF's proprietary FiRPHASE and Bass Motion Control DSP technologies, delivering precise audio reproduction. FiRPHASE optimizes phase response, ensuring every frequency arrives at the listener's ear in perfect alignment, while Bass Motion Control manages woofer excursion for a clean, distortion-free low end. These systems work in tandem to maintain crystal-clear highs, articulate mids and a deep, controlled bass response—even at high volumes. With DSP finely tuned to the ART-915A's components, this speaker provides an immersive listening experience with every performance.

2,100W Bi-Amplification for Powerful Sound

The ART-915A is driven by a high-efficiency Class-D amplifier, delivering 2,100W of power—1,400W to the woofer and 700W to the compression driver. This two-channel amplification system produces ultra-fast transient response, handling high SPLs with ease while maintaining clarity and detail. The amp's energy-efficient design eliminates the need for a cooling fan, reducing mechanical noise and ensuring reliable performance. With its robust power output, the ART-915A provides the punch and precision needed for demanding audio environments.

True Resistive Waveguide for Controlled Dispersion

RCF's True Resistive Waveguide ensures consistent sound coverage with a 100° x 60° dispersion pattern. This innovative design minimizes distortion and maintains coherent phase alignment across the listening area, ensuring every seat enjoys the same high-quality sound. The waveguide works seamlessly with the speaker's 1.75" compression driver, delivering smooth, natural highs and improved vocal intelligibility. Whether used in a front-of-house configuration or as part of a flown system, this waveguide ensures focused and even sound projection.

A Durable and Lightweight Powered Speaker

Constructed from a polypropylene composite material with M-brace internal reinforcement, the ART-915A is built to withstand the rigors of frequent use. This innovative design minimizes cabinet vibrations, enhancing acoustic performance while maintaining structural integrity. The enclosure features multiple rigging points for pole mounting, wall installation or truss suspension, making it adaptable to various setups. Weighing just 46.3 lb., this speaker is easy to transport and install, delivering reliability and ease of use for professionals on the move.

Built for Audio Professionals Demanding Precision

The RCF ART-915A 2-way powered speaker combines advanced DSP, powerful bi-amplification and rugged construction to meet the demands of professional audio engineers and performers. Its lightweight build and multiple rigging options make it ideal for portable setups or permanent installations, while its precise sound reproduction ensures clarity and impact.

    Purchased RCF ART 915A. Returned due to two reasons- smelling circuit burned & hot to touching. Second reason- No bluetooth or graphic touch screen and internal settings. Have GuitarCenter rept. ordered two RCF ART915-AX. Picked up drove home, unboxed- one was not new, was dusty, was mixed up inside the box, one speaker was opened and resealed with double copper staples, and re-taped. The power cord dirty- mixing end cord plastic cover at the three prongs. The smelling of the circuit- burned, and hot to touch heatsink housing after one hour power on with moderate music playing. Will returning RCF-ART 915-AX. The reason purchased Made in Italy.

  • Good upgrade for mains

    Clarity has been great. Volume and overall clean headroom is nice. Compared to similar priced QSC, EV, JBL, etc, and these were better for punch and clarity. No frills, but these are made for good solid sound. The other brands have other features, preamps, etc, if you need that, there are other decent options in this price range. My focus was the best sound and these won. I would buy again.

  • I wouldn't buy product again.

    The reason I'm giving a 3 star rating is because the cabinet itself is cheap, I received 2 different ones brand new in the box and they were both cracked behind the speaker grill and 1 was dented on the grill if the build was more like the QSC k.2 series I would've given these speakers a 5 star rating, for the money being spent on these speakers you'd expect more quality, just saying!

  • ONE OF THE BEST!!!!

    This speaker outperformed all the other 15" speakers available when demoing. The bass is full without being muddy, the treble is crystal clear, and the mids are just right!! For background music or listening at low levels, there is a BOOST mode which adds a noticeable boost to the low and high frequencies. There isn't a lot of headroom, so you're going to need a good preamp to get the most out of these speakers. And the back plate does get warm. That being said, this outperformed JBL, QSC, EV, ALTO, and the Mackie!!! WOW!!

    There are two ways to coofect to the ART. - 1/4" and XLR. I don't know what controller you have or what outputs it has. The type pf speaker connection does not affect the sound.
