RCF ART 715-A MK5
RCF ART 715-A MK5
The RCF ART 715-A MK5 is a professional active two-way system designed for demanding sound reinforcement on stages, at events, and for mobile productions. It achieves a maximum sound pressure level of up to 130dB SPL and offers a peak power of 1400W, making it capable of handling even larger spaces with ease. The XBOOST Low Frequencies Enhancer technology provides sonic depth by enhancing the bass, while FiRPHASE ensures precise phase alignment and transparent reproduction across the entire frequency range.

The RCF ART 715-A MK5 is one of the most distinctive models in its category
The detailed performance of the RCF ART 715-A MK5 is delivered by a combination of high-end transducers: a 1.75" compression driver with a durable polyimide-Kapton diaphragm and a 15" woofer with a 2.5" voice coil. The high-frequency driver provides high vocal intelligibility and precise projection, while the bass driver offers deep, linear, and controlled low frequencies with minimal distortion, even under high loads.
The aluminium chassis dissipates heat effectively
The power section of the RCF ART 715-A MK5 uses a highly efficient Class-D amplifier with an SMPS power supply, ensuring low weight and high efficiency. The total power reaches 1400W peak, with 400W for high frequencies and 1000W for the low band. The amplifier's design is complemented by a robust aluminium chassis, which aids in cooling and increases mechanical durability during transport.
The RCF ART 715-A MK5 has undergone strict quality control
The integrated DSP in the RCF ART 715-A MK5 manages frequency division, equalisation, phase correction, soft limiter, and overload protection functions. The crossover frequency is set at 1600Hz, and the system is equipped with thermal overload and RMS limiting protection. The controls on the rear panel allow for volume adjustment, MIC/LINE mode selection, and activation of the Boost function to modify the sound character.
With even spatial coverage
In terms of acoustics, the RCF ART 715-A MK5 offers a frequency range of 45Hz–20,000Hz, a horizontal dispersion of 90°, and a vertical dispersion of 60°, ensuring even coverage of the space. The speaker's connectivity includes XLR and Jack inputs supporting both balanced and unbalanced signals, with an XLR output. The input sensitivity is set to -2 dBu / +4 dBu, and the microphone input to -32 dBu.
With maximally transparent sound
The RCF ART 715-A MK5 uses FiRPHASE technology, which is based on advanced digital FIR signal processing and is designed to achieve maximally transparent sound, absolute clarity, and precise spatial imaging. Thanks to special filters, the ART 715-A MK5 ensures coherent sound distribution for all listeners with minimal latency. The FiRPHASE system in the ART 715-A MK5 is based on precise measurement of the speaker's phase and adjusts the phase characteristic using an advanced algorithm. It allows for detailed control of mid and low frequencies, compensation for cabinet resonances, and achieves high-resolution sound.
Easily portable
The cabinet construction of the RCF ART 715-A MK5 is made of polypropylene composite, which dampens vibrations even at high volumes. The cabinet is equipped with top and side handles, a steel grille, and a 35mm flange for a stand or subwoofer. Its dimensions are 708 × 437 × 389mm and it weighs 19.6kg.
System Type
An active speaker is one that has a built-in amplifier, and to listen, you just need to connect it to a sound source, either wired or wirelessly.Passive speakers are more often referred to as speaker systems. They are intended for high-quality, loud, and dynamic listening in the comfort of your home and are not suitable for frequent transport. The main advantage of passive speakers is the ability to connect a variety of sources through a separate amplifier.
Number of Channels
The number of channels in speaker systems and home cinemas indicates the number of independent audio signals (speakers) and subwoofers, most commonly in the X.Y format (e.g., 2.0, 5.1). It specifies how many audio tracks are reproduced simultaneously, which determines the spatial experience and bass depth of the system, from basic stereo sound (2.0) to surround sound (5.1 and more).Specifications
