RCF ART-912A-AX Two-Way 12" 2100W Powered PA Speaker with Bluetooth

The RCF ART 912-AX is a top-notch solution for any audio application, featuring 48V microphone preamps and line inputs, an internal 6-channel digital mixer with advanced DSP, Bluetooth stereo audio input, with dual speaker pairing option. The combination of a 1.75" compression driver, 12" woofer, and two-channel 2100W amplifier, produces 100° x 60° constant directivity coverage for the listening area with up to 130 dB SPL, distortion-free sound. The sleek cabinet uses a special polypropylene composite material with an M-brace internal reinforcement, making it easy to carry and secure to install on a pole, flown-, wall-, or truss-mounted using the multiple rigging points available.

Top-Notch Solution for Portable Audio

Connect your instruments and microphones to the 48V powered preamps or the line inputs; an internal 6-channel digital mixer with Compressors, EQs, Reverb, and Ducker will help you get the job done. And if you run out of time, use the quick setup modes with step-by-step configuration options.

Powerful Wireless Bluetooth Speaker

The Class 1 Bluetooth connection can receive 2-channel audio streaming and provides a stereo or dual mono output for pairing with AX-featured RCF speakers. RCF tested over 328' free-field operability. Enjoy the convenience of Bluetooth connection when you have architectural constraints, pedestrian areas, or inaccessible signal connections.

Power that Moves

The most powerful amplifier in its class. RCF's improvements in transducer design make them stronger and powerful, so the amplifier follows the evolution. With 2100 Watts of power, the 2-channel ART 9 Class-D amplifier is 50% more powerful than previous models, able to manage extremely high sound pressure levels with an ultra-fast attack, realistic transient response, and very low heat loss. ART 9 is very energy-efficient so there is no need for a cooling fan - the amplifier is attached to a solid aluminum heat exchanger in the back of the unit - with no moving parts. Being physically connected with the internal frame, the amplifier is firm and solid within the cabinet. The input circuit features a new low distortion design with an advanced safety limiter, maintaining the true character of the input signal at all levels. All ART 9 amplifiers are designed according to EN62368-1 for maximum safety and present a Switch Mode Power Supply section joining high-efficiency with minimum weight.

A Live Experience in Your Pocket

RCF LiveRemote App makes it easy to adjust ART 9-AX mixer, DSP, FX, routing, and Bluetooth settings. LiveRemote also allows full control of the internal ART 9-AX engine: recall and save presets, set your desired volume levels, adjust EQ, compressors, and FX, customize and tune your sound system and much more. Available for Android and iOS phones and tablets.

Advanced Features for Professional Users

The internal mixer disentangles all your routing needs, and an internal crossover helps you use the speaker with any subwoofer. An internal 5-band parametric EQ lets you manage boomy spaces or modal resonances, while the output delay keeps your sound always in time. Wireless pairing to another ART 9-AX is a handy tool when you have physical constraints and can't run signal cables.
