Description
The RCF ART 812-A is a professional two-way active loudspeaker engineered for DJs, musicians, rental companies, and installation professionals who require powerful performance, exceptional clarity, and reliable versatility. Combining a high-output 12" woofer, a 1.75" compression driver, and a powerful 1400 W Class-D bi-amplified design, this speaker delivers impressive sound pressure levels of up to 129 dB while maintaining excellent detail and low distortion. Its compact, modern design makes it equally suited for portable sound systems and permanent installations.
At the heart of the ART 812-A is RCF’s advanced True Resistive Waveguide technology, providing consistent 100° x 60° coverage for even sound distribution throughout the audience area. Enhanced by proprietary FiRPHASE and Bass Motion Control (BMC) processing, the system delivers precise vocal intelligibility, natural sound reproduction, and improved phase coherence across the frequency spectrum. The integrated XBOOST low-frequency enhancer further extends bass performance, adding greater depth and impact without sacrificing clarity or control.
Built for demanding professional environments, the ART 812-A features a lightweight yet rugged polypropylene composite enclosure reinforced with RCF’s internal M-brace structure to reduce resonance and increase cabinet stability. Its versatile design supports a wide range of deployment options, including pole mounting, wall mounting, truss installation, and flown configurations using integrated rigging points. Whether used for live performances, mobile events, corporate presentations, or installed audio systems, the ART 812-A delivers dependable performance, outstanding coverage, and the renowned sound quality that professionals expect from RCF.
