RCF ART 915-A Review and our thoughts

[@alexdefrancisco3066]

I’ve heard they burn because the amplifiers work with 115 volts and here in the use power surges or power conditioners work with 120 and allow up to 135 volts

[@sixsentsoldiers]

Looking for a kick ass drum monitor. Kick. Bass. Capable. This seems like a good choice?

[@SHULE1972]

Is it normal for the RCF ART 915A speaker to always be warm, at the back around the power switch area? I don't mean warming up after 3, 4, 5 hours of work at 50%, 60% power, but it simply warms up after about 10 minutes of work. Even when they are not working, they are just switched on? (both speakers)

[@francescog53550]

yes it’s normal

[@sweettreeproductions2149]

Yes it is normal. Ours have never overheated even in 100+ degree humid Alabama weather.

[@djwestman]

All the RCF from series 9 had the same problem with ducking when you are at high volume and the MC is speaking or yelling into the mic. The speaker is ducking for 2,3 seconds wich is awfull. The series 7 never had that problem . I m gonna sell all of them

[@EduardoGonzalez-zl8kp]

Where are you at and what you have I’m looking for 2 935

[@francescog53550]

It can be annoying but that means that the limiter is protecting the drivers very strongly so we can’t blame on it

[@downhillskier989]

Why in the new ax series did they use a 1.75”compression driver in the 15” and not the 3” like the previous 935?

[@sweettreeproductions2149]

The AX series is really just there to add the inline mixer and DSP. It is really the same speaker as the other 900 series besides that.

[@metriotescomment5269]

Great video!! I’m very indecise weather to buy the 915 or the 935: what do you recommend me for a non-professional use? Thanks a lot❤

[@francescog53550]

915

[@David_Logr]

Do you perhaps have any opinion on the FBT X-Pro 115A compared to the 15" series 9 RCFs? I'd really appreciate it, cheers!

[@francescog53550]

Some reviews say the rcf art 915 is slightly better.

[@NathanSynth]

Is there some sort of cross over switch on this speaker?

[@sweettreeproductions2149]

There are three DSP settings on the back one of them is a bass boost one is flat and one is for monitor mode. We typically cross them over using our mixer, processor, or if a small gig the sub we bring.

[@revelationevents2323]

Hey I bought the 945a and noticed they run hot after a while. Is this normal?

[@sweettreeproductions2149]

It is normal for most of their convection cooled cabinets to run a little hot. We have never had them overheat though.

[@miroslav8817]

I was thinking to use 915 on one chanel and hdm45 on other chanel. Hdm45 is very expensive, 915 is half the price but same rms as hdm45. What you think? Can they play together?

[@David_Logr]

I wouldn't do that. mismatching speakers is usually quite distracting. it causes imbalance

[@miroslav8817]

@@David_Logr Thanks, but what if i use them on the same chanel together?

[@francescog53550]

they’re not the same rms. although manuals say otherwise. The 915 is about 400 watts rms total. The Hdm is more powerful. But nowhere near the numbers reported on paper :)

[@miroslav8817]

@@francescog53550 Thanks man

[@JuanBlasBecerra]

ETX or RCF 915 for singing with backing tracks ? Thanks .great review

[@soulsinger1969]

Hi Juan, im a professional singer and have the ETX12P's, however although the music/backing tracks are nice, i have found that they simply do not project vocals far into the room. I had a play with the RCF;s 935's and i heard a vocalist using the 945's and both were awesome,...the vocal pressence and quality was night and day of that if the ETX, probably due to the fact that the RFCs have larger HF horns of 3" and 4" respectively and the crossover frequency means the full vocal can come out the top horn which is more efficent,.. Im going for the 945's just so i can leave my bass bins at home :)

[@JuanBlasBecerra]

How Cool 😎, Inlove your singing , I’ve played Blues and Soul as a harmonica player as well, and I think you’re right , I decided as well to choose the 915 Ax from RCF but after listening the Martin Audio speakers , my choice will be the blackline series 15” , 2 speakers will suit 250 people without problem .. Thanks for your comment!!

[@francescog53550]

@@JuanBlasBecerrahow does the blackline xp15 compares to the RCF art 915? I imagine that the bass is better thanks to the wooden box. But I’m talking about max loudness

[@JuanBlasBecerra]

I’m looking into new 15 inch speakers. What would you pick between the QSC KW152, EV ETX 15P, or the RCF HDM45-A’s?

[@francescog53550]

Qsc KW152 is an old speaker, Ev ETX is quite nice but RCF HDM 45 should be the loudest of them all

[@henryesparza8663]

rcf

[@ArtakElb1987]

hello rcf 915 when loud state eats smell is normal?

[@icsux]

Yes!

[@GuiSchwertner]

whats the song at 6min?

[@sovyetbeyi]

I will buy new speakers. Do you think the sound quality is 715 mk5 or 915?

[@Jerrypmathew]

I am also in the same situation. Confused between 715 mk5 and 915. But 715 mk5 is the latest version and 2.5 kg less in weight

[@sovyetbeyi]

@@Jerrypmathew I talked to the rfc official. It was said that 915 was better in terms of sound quality.

[@anibalbugueno6165]

Cuál es la potencia rms? no he encontrado esta información, muchas gracias !!

[@francescog53550]

400 watts RMS real world. Don’t be fooled by what’s written on paper

They deserve a good look!
