RCF ART 932-A - 2100W 12-inch Powered 2-Way Portable Loudspeaker with 100 x 60-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The RCF ART 932-A is a high-performance, 2100W powered 2-way portable loudspeaker designed to provide exceptional audio performance for demanding applications. Featuring a 12" woofer, a 3" titanium/neodymium compression driver, and a two-channel 2100W Class-D amplifier, the ART 932-A is engineered to deliver powerful, distortion-free sound with a maximum SPL of 132 dB. With its constant directivity True Resistive Waveguide (TRW) technology, the ART 932-A offers coherent 100° horizontal and 60° vertical coverage, ensuring that sound is evenly distributed across the entire listening area. Whether you're using it for large-scale live events, sound reinforcement, or installed audio systems, the ART 932-A provides clarity, depth, and precision for all types of audio applications.

The ART 932-A's 2100W amplifier, with 1400W dedicated to low frequencies and 700W for high frequencies, is built for extreme high-pressure sound levels. The bi-amplified Class-D design provides ultra-fast attack and realistic transient response, making it capable of handling the most demanding audio tasks. The amplifier's energy-efficient design eliminates the need for a cooling fan, relying on a solid aluminum heat exchanger to dissipate heat, ensuring the system stays cool even during extended use. Additionally, the amplifier is physically connected to the internal frame, providing greater stability and ensuring optimal performance without any moving parts.

The 12" woofer in the ART 932-A, equipped with a 2.5" voice coil, provides exceptional control over low-frequency output, delivering deep, punchy bass with extended linearity. The 3" titanium/neodymium compression driver, paired with a 1.4" voice coil, ensures clear, crisp high frequencies and exceptional vocal projection. These components are designed and tuned to work in perfect harmony, offering a balanced and powerful full-range audio experience. The ART 932-A also features RCF's innovative Bass Motion Control (BMC), a state-of-the-art woofer excursion management system. BMC allows the speaker to handle low frequencies with extended linearity and without affecting woofer stability, ensuring better sound integrity and preventing over-excursions that could lead to distortion.

RCF's True Resistive Waveguide (TRW) design is a key feature of the ART 932-A. The TRW technology is a result of extensive research and development, including Finite Element Analysis and constant measurements in RCF's anechoic chambers. It mimics a resonance-free, pure resistive load, reducing high-frequency distortion that is typical of conventional horns. The TRW's asymmetrical design provides constant directivity, ensuring that sound is evenly distributed throughout the listening area and improving the stereo panorama. This technology allows the ART 932-A to function as a single ideal sound source, offering excellent imaging and accurate sound reproduction, even in challenging acoustical environments.

The ART 932-A also integrates RCF's proprietary FiRPHASE technology, which provides transparent sound with perfect imaging and minimal latency. The special FiRPHASE filters ensure that sound is coherently distributed across the listening area, eliminating phase distortions and delivering a clear, immersive audio experience for all listeners. The speaker's DSP processing ensures optimal crossover, equalization, phase control, and soft limiting, maximizing the speaker's performance while protecting it from potential damage during high-output use.

Built for durability and ease of use, the ART 932-A features a rugged polypropylene composite cabinet with M-brace internal reinforcement. This construction reduces vibrations and prevents deformation, ensuring the speaker remains stable even under high sound pressure levels. The steel grille protects the transducers and vented ports, ensuring the longevity of the speaker's components. The cabinet includes a top handle and side handles for easy transport, and the 35mm pole mount insert allows for easy mounting on speaker stands or subwoofers. The speaker can also be flown or wall-mounted using the provided rigging points, offering flexibility for both portable and installed applications. Additionally, the rear of the cabinet can be used as a floor monitor, making the ART 932-A an ideal solution for a variety of professional audio setups.

With a frequency response range from 45 Hz to 20,000 Hz and a maximum SPL of 132 dB, the ART 932-A is capable of delivering high-quality sound in large and demanding environments. The speaker's thermal and RMS protection, along with the soft limiter, ensure safe operation even at high volumes, while the CE compliance guarantees the speaker meets the highest standards for safety and performance.
