RCF SUB 705-AS Mk3 Product Review

[@juan600]

Amazing sub greatly recommended. Blows away the old mkii by far and sort of rivals the old 18" in the 80hz. I bought and can testify to it. Really good sub and compact as well for such an amazing sound. Deep for 15" 🔥

What tops you use ?

[@cloudthedj]

Looking to upgrade to this sub from my current JBL IRX 115 that I’m running with QSC K12.2s. Thanks for the insight

[@karolisnoreika3703]

Good stuff. Please do more videos :)

[@user-gq3bf1fu3p]

Awesome vid! Can you do side by side by side comparison of the RCF 905 sub and the Bassboss BB15 subwoofers?

[@HammersoundRentals]

I have a 905 on order :)

[@philipp5014]

@@HammersoundRentals Did you already receive it? Would like to have a comparison aswell!

[@DjGrooveTech]

Do these come with casters/wheels? If not, are they predrilled for available casters?

[@HammersoundRentals]

No wheels :(

[@eshoreent]

Can you give us a review on the RCF 905? Its suppose to be the same as the 705 but with 133 db and heavier.

[@HammersoundRentals]

I will try and get one in to test 💪

[@karolisnoreika3703]

+1 for 905 MK3

[@pancommunityf.c]

I have 2 x 912s and a 705 What settings on back do you recommend based on you usage ? Xover and 80 ?😊

[@felixkrell890]

I am currently looking into getting these with NX-932s that just released. But undecided if this or the RCF Sub 905-AS MK3 would be the better fit together. I would love to run both speakers and the sub off a 4-Schuko PA-Powerstrip, but I don't know if that is feasible, especially considering the peak power ratings of the 905 sub. Might go with the 705 just because of that alone... The Dip on the 110 hz DSP is worrying me a bit though. The 110 x over would be the configuration I would want to use them in. I wonder if I should go with something else in that case. The 905 version has options I wouldn't use, for example the cardiod system and powercon etc. So that would make the 18 inch version of this a third option. Originally, I didn't wanna go that big though... mhhhhh

I run two 905ASII's with HD32 tops, those subs rock, you wont be dissapointed. And the size and weight makes them so much more portable for one person and a car. Great set for live music.

[@HammersoundRentals]

The tops have more headroom that could go unused with the 705 and the 905, where I would lean towards 8003 if you go above 100 people gigs. Any inside gig the 15 will match the top fine, but outdoor and longer throw situations it will run out before the tops.

[@felixkrell890]

@@HammersoundRentals I think I might be okay with that actually - I might only play bigger outside gigs occasionally anyways, most of my stuff is smaller venues. A question i still have left is between the 705 vs the 905 --> Theoretically I don't think I need more than the 705. I don't plan to use them in cardoid mode, don't really need all of the Crossover profiles either.

[@yosefshkeidim5755]

HI Im also deciding between NX32 and nx932, do you know if the 932 is as clear and tight bass?

[@HammersoundRentals]

@@yosefshkeidim5755 the 932 is a clear upgrade and the newer version of the 32, so definitely go for that one if you can swing it

[@djpipe1]

How will they go with Yamaha dbr15 ?

[@angelicacaso5219]

Hi, I have two RCF subs with respective satellites, as regards the phase there is a button switch with the writing: PHASE 180° and 80°, to have the movement in the same phase for both speakers I have to set it to 180 ° or 80°? Thank you

[@Lkingdome]

bisede they way it looks what´s the difference between AS II and MK3?

[@HammersoundRentals]

Mostly the look, plays the same, size the same, output the same. If you can get mk2 cheap, I would spring for that.

[@ciekaweify]

There is a new RCF 905 mk3 active subbass. Novelty. It plays very nicely but lacks power. And I don't know if it can withstand many hours of gaming because it gets warm and there is no cooling. A better bass is the Yamaha DXS 15 XLF. there is no competition here in 15 inch speakers.

[@djjas764]

Can you review also new rcf sub 8003 mk3 and nxl 24mk2 with it.

[@HammersoundRentals]

I’ll see what I can do

[@teclairedikoume7266]

Great video thank you so much🎉

[@guitaristwilllane]

yo! thank you for the vid! wondering what your thoughts are on the MK3 vs the MK2 (AS-II)? looks to be the only major difference being the "Bass Motion Control" tech the MK3's offer, wondering if that will help the speaker stay together better at higher volumes over the MK2?

[@HammersoundRentals]

From what I've heard the mk 3 upgrade is mainly an aesthetic one, and due to parts for the amplifier not being avaliable. Its nice that it fits better with the 9 series NX and ART series as well. But spec for spec, its completely the same sub, same ratings almost 1 to 1 really. Its a bit lighter, which I'm not sure how to read. Could be that the amp is more efficient and the driver is lighter. You will be happy with either one, but the added benefit of BMC is you may get louder. Not sure how much you would feel that though.

[@guitaristwilllane]

@@HammersoundRentals gotcha, i was thinking similarly; thank you so much for the reply!

[@robertlawson1184]

Whats the diff of this 705 vs the 8003a?

[@juan600]

The 8003 its a 18" way more power but anyway this 15 mkiii sounds incredible. I compared it to the 18 mkii and it keeps up that bass motion control helps A LOT!

[@robertlawson1184]

@@juan600 thank you for fast response!

[@djjas764]

Tooo goooood

[@peterndwiga4694]

How about 905mk2

[@Les_Gõr]

You said that the 910 would be the best mach for this sub. You mean two 910 with a single 905 or two 910 with 2 905? I’d like to top to reach the maximum when the sub reaches its maximum. I don’t want the tops to overpower the sub

[@HammersoundRentals]

Depends on how much sub you want in the room, a single is fine for most gigs but if you love bass you should get two
