Unlock Your System's True Potential

The key to optimizing your sound system is the precise adjustment of your subwoofer's time alignment. This not only elevates sound quality but also enhances bass response, giving your audience both the beat they can hear and the vibe they can feel.

With internal factory-tuned crossover presets for RCF speakers, your sound system is show-ready in a few easy steps. Simply connect your satellite speakers to the SUB AX, select the crossover preset from the user interface, and you are ready to go. FiRPHASE linear phase is extended to match the subwoofer phase down to the lowest frequencies.

A Live Experience that is Completely Mobile

With the RCF LiveRemote app, you can control up to 8 AX devices via Bluetooth® simultaneously from your smartphone or tablet. The app makes it easy to adjust internal parameters and save and recall presets. You can also use the app to control your entire sound system, with a fully featured 8-band EQ and advanced functions.
 

LiveRemote App

Whether you’re a musician, DJ, or pro sound engineer, the RCF LiveRemote App, the same app that is used with the  ART 9 AX, is now available with the SUB AX models. On the subs, crossover preset selection, system EQ and delay adjustments and crossover individual settings are quickly accessible. When two subwoofer models are paired, they can be set up for 2.2 operation. Available for Android and iOS phones and tablets.

Gig-Ready Solution

Responsive Image
RCF cabinets are made of high-quality multi-ply hardwood coated with a rugged black (or white) polyurea finish. Subs are stackable and lightweight, have ergonomic handles with rubber grips, and are designed for easy set-up and tear-down. The M20 threaded pole mount on the top of the cabinet supports RCF speakers of various sizes. The powder-coated front grille integrates a special transparent-to-sound foam backing on the inside to further protect transducers from dust. SUB AX Series subwoofers are built to last, with powerCON® TRUE1 TOP mains connectors, so you can be sure that they will stand up to the rigors of use and transport.

I subwoofer leader del settore

Leggeri e potenti, i woofer RCF rappresentano un punto di riferimento in termini di prestazioni di alto livello. Gli ingegneri elettroacustici di RCF Precision hanno sviluppato magneti ridimensionati e profili specifici per ottimizzare il flusso magnetico e al contempo mantenere un peso ridotto. La topologia del circuito magnetico è in grado di fornire il più alto ed equilibrato livello di prestazioni in tre aree specifiche: mantenimento di un gap di flusso magnetico uniforme e ad alta integrità, distorsione eccezionalmente bassa e integrazione efficiente del circuito magnetico in un design dal peso minimo. Il design T-pole è ottimizzato per generare la minima modulazione del flusso nel gruppo magnetico durante il tipico movimento della bobina mobile all’interno del gap.

Drive the Rhythm of the Beat

With 2,200 Watts of power, our Class-D amplifier can manage extreme sound pressure levels with an ultra-fast attack, realistic transient response, and very low thermal loss. The stereo input circuit features a low distortion design with an advanced safety limiter, maintaining the true character of the input signal at all levels. RCF amplifiers are designed according to EN62368-1 for maximum safety and present a Switch Mode Power Supply section combining high efficiency with minimum weight.

Effettuando ricerche sul miglioramento delle prestazioni alle basse frequenze, gli ingegneri RCF hanno rimosso il filtro passa-alto, sostituendolo con un approccio inedito. Il BMC (Bass Motion Control) è una soluzione innovativa per la gestione delle escursioni del woofer. Il diffusore dotato di BMC è in grado di gestire le frequenze più basse udibili senza influire sulla stabilità del trasduttore, fornendo così una linearità estesa e una migliore integrità sonora.

Il metodo BMC agisce creando una mappa completa del comportamento dinamico del woofer per generare un algoritmo personalizzato che limita solo le sovra-escursioni. Questo fornisce al trasduttore una totale libertà di riproduzione del segnale. Di norma, i filtri passa-alto proteggono il woofer preservandolo da movimenti potenzialmente distruttivi, ma ne cambiano il comportamento di fase: il nuovo algoritmo BMC infrange questa regola.
