The ART 915-AX is a perfect solution for all audio applications, equipped two mic preamps with 48V phantom power and line inputs, an integrated 6-channel digital mixer with powerful DSP and a Bluetooth stereo audio input, with option to pair two speakers. It combines a 1.75? compression driver, a 15? bass driver, a two-channel 2100 W amplifier and a constant directivity waveguide ensuring coherent coverage of 100° x 60° for a distortion-free sound reaching 131 dB SPL. The elegantly designed box uses a specific polypropylene composite with internal M-brace reinforcement. Easy to transport, it attaches to a mast, a wall, a structure or hangs using the numerous points provided for this purpose.

2100 W: the Bluetooth® wireless speaker the most powerful
The ART 9-AX is the most powerful speaker on the market, even when connected wirelessly. The Class 1 Bluetooth® connection can receive a 2-channel audio stream and provides stereo or dual mono output for pairing with AX-enabled RCF speakers. We have tested and validated an open field range of over 100 meters (328 feet). Enjoy the convenience of a Bluetooth® connection when you have architectural constraints, pedestrian areas or inaccessible signal connections.

Power on the move
The most powerful amplifier in its category. The improvements made by RCF to its speakers make them more solid and powerful, and the amplifier naturally accompanies this evolution. At 2100 W, the ART 9's 2-channel Class D amplifier is 50% more powerful than previous models, capable of generating extreme sound pressure levels with ultra-fast attack, realistic transient response and a very low heating. Thanks to its energy efficiency, the NX 9 Series does not need ventilation. The amplifier is plated to an all-aluminum heat exchanger on the back of the cabinet, with no moving parts. Being structurally integral with the internal frame, the amplifier is firmly and securely held in the cabinet. The new input circuit ensures low distortion, and an advanced limiter preserves the naturalness of the input signal, whatever the level. All ART 9 Series amplifiers are designed to EN62368-1 for maximum safety, and their switching power supply combines high efficiency and minimal weight.

The live experience in your pocket
Manage the ART 9-AX from your smartphone or tablet with the LiveRemote app
RCF's LiveRemote app makes it easy to adjust the mixer, DSPs, effects, routing and Bluetooth® settings of the ART 9-AX. LiveRemote also allows full control of the ART 9-AX internal engine: recall and save presets, set desired volume levels, adjust EQ, compressors and effects, customize and tune your sound system and much more. Available for Android and iOS on smartphone and tablet.



State-of-the-art features for professional users
The internal mixer meets all your routing and an internal crossover allows you to use the speaker with any subwoofer. An internal 5-band parametric EQ lets you manage messy spaces or clean modes, while delay keeps your sound always in sync. Wireless pairing to another ART 9-AX is convenient when you have physical constraints preventing you from running audio cables.
