RCF SUB 9029-AS Active 8000 W Dual 19-Inch High Powered Subwoofer - Black

The RCF SUB 9029-AS Active Dual 19" High Powered Subwoofer - Black is delivering up to 142 dB Max SPL, powered by a robust 8000W Class-D amplifier. Designed for rigorous touring, the SUB 9029-AS features a tour-ready, weatherproof cabinet with a durable Polyurea finish and a detachable front cart for easy transport. Control is precise with RDNet network management, offering adjustable EQ, delay, cardioid options, and tailored crossover presets for RCF speakers. Innovative contactless configuration via RDTap allows seamless setup even when the unit is unpowered, ensuring perfect integration every time. Despite its small footprint and lightweight cabinet, the SUB 9029-AS produces powerful yet articulate bass, remaining true to even the most subtle low-frequency variations.

RDTap

RDTap enables contactless communication, offering setup management and parameter updates, even when the unit is unpowered. By tapping the RDTap logo at the back panel with a smartphone running RDTap, the app transfers to the unit every aspect of the defined setup, including preset configurations, equalization, mid-low compensation for line arrays, and precise delay and time alignment settings. Or read the status of the speaker.

This is especially convenient when upgrading your subwoofers and giving your old main system a new life, with the assistance of presets, EQs, delays, and management via RDNet.

Unlike other control technologies that operate over long distances, this solution focuses on near-field interactions, where security, precision, and unpowered operations before rigging are key. Data transmission occurs at close range, ensuring that changes are applied only when intended, without interference from further distances or external devices. This makes it a highly efficient and user-friendly way to manage the subwoofer’s settings and performance before setup takes place.

Drive the Rhythm of the Beat

With up to 8000 Watts of power, our Class-D amplifier can manage extreme sound pressure levels with an ultra-fast attack, realistic transient response, and very low thermal loss.

The stereo input circuit features a low distortion design with an advanced safety limiter, maintaining the true character of the input signal at all levels. RCF amplifiers are designed according to EN62368-1 for maximum safety and present a Switch-Mode Power Supply section that combines high efficiency with minimum weight.

Advanced Precision Transducers

SUB 9000 Series subwoofers incorporate the latest transducer technology from our labs. Employing lightweight aluminum core coils, high-damping cellulose cone material, composite spiders and a 4-layer inside-outside voice coil, the ultra-long excursion moving mass gains high power with fast acceleration. Despite their small and lightweight footprints, SUB 9000 Series subwoofers produce powerful yet articulate bass, remaining true to even the most subtle low-frequency variations.

High-Class Neodymium

Neodymium, a rare-earth material, enhances efficiency, power handling, and weight reduction. Using a 20% stronger magnetic field than typical neodymium grades, this new design enables precise control and higher force.

Tour Grade Solution

Designed for rigorous touring, SUB 9000 Series subwoofers feature tour-ready, weatherproof plywood construction with a durable polyurea finish. The included magnetic rain cover protects the connection panel from rain and dust, while rugged powerCON TRUE1 TOP AC connectors ensure reliable power delivery in any environmental condition. Subs are stackable and lightweight, have ergonomic handles with rubber grips, and are designed for easy set-up and tear-down. M20 pole mounts on the top and side of the cabinet offer flexible top speaker placement. Connections for a detachable front cart are included, enabling easy transport on wheels (cart sold separately).

Modular Suspension Kit

The modular Subwoofer Suspension Kit is engineered for extreme flexibility and safety in flown subwoofer configurations. Designed with high-strength steel components and compatible with various subwoofer models, the system supports secure suspension of up to 9 units while also enabling adaptability for cardioid configurations.
