Designed to deliver stellar audio performance and versatility for intensive audio applications, the RCF ART 945-A Two-Way 15" 2100W Powered PA Speaker with Integrated DSP is a highly flexible, easy-to-use, 2100W powered PA speaker for today’s working musicians, singer/songwriters, mobile DJs, and other sound providers. The speaker works in a variety of orientations and configurations for use as a main PA or stage monitor. When used as a main speaker, a pair of ART 945-A speakers is well equipped to cover an audience of up to 450.
Preset Modes and Performance Technologies
A push button on the back of the speaker allows you to physically switch between three preset modes: Linear, for standard applications; Boost, which provides loudness equalisation for background music played at low volumes; and Stage, for using the speaker as a stage monitor. The ART 945-A employs True Resistive Waveguide technology, which incorporates several refinements of the transducers and the vented port design to create a resonance-free signal that reduces high-frequency distortion. The speaker also utilises Bass Motion Control (BMC), which bypasses the need for a high-pass filter and instead uses an advanced woofer excursion management feature that can handle the lowest audible frequencies without affecting woofer stability, with extended linearity and better sound integrity.
Connectivity and Amplification
A single combo XLR-1/4" connector can accept both unbalanced and balanced signals. There is also an XLR Thru-Output for daisy-chaining to additional speakers or other audio equipment. The highly efficient 2100W Class-D bi-amplifier delivers 1400W to the 15" woofer and 700W to the 4" titanium/neodymium compression driver, which provide full-range audio (45 Hz to 20 kHz) with a sound pressure level powerful enough to ensure the entire audience can hear your performance.
Power and Protection
The speaker features True Outdoor Protection (TOP) PowerCON TRUE1 power input and output connectors. These ruggedised sealed connectors feature not only IP protection but also UV resistance approved according to UL50E. The ART 945-A includes a power cord.
