RCF Compact C 45 - 700W 15-inch Passive 2-Way Installation Loudspeaker with 100 x 50-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The RCF Compact C 45 is a high-performance two-way point source speaker designed for a variety of near and mid-distance applications. Ideal for both speech and music reproduction, this speaker combines a powerful 15-inch neodymium woofer and a 4-inch neodymium compression driver, delivering exceptional sound quality with high SPL and minimal distortion. The use of a rotatable 100° x 50° constant directivity waveguide ensures consistent sound coverage and intelligibility, even in acoustically challenging environments. This versatility makes the C 45 an excellent choice for installations in clubs, live venues, houses of worship, and other high-demand environments.

With a robust 700W RMS power handling and a peak power capacity of 2800W, the C 45 can easily handle high-output applications, delivering a maximum SPL of 138 dB. The speaker's frequency response of 48 Hz to 20,000 Hz ensures that it covers the full spectrum of sound, from deep bass to crisp highs, providing a natural and well-balanced sound profile. The speaker's high sensitivity of 98 dB means that it performs efficiently, even with lower power amplifiers, making it ideal for use with a wide range of audio systems.

One of the key features of the Compact C 45 is its flexibility. The 100° x 50° waveguide can be rotated, allowing for both horizontal and vertical installations. Additionally, with the optional HN-KIT accessory, users can swap the speaker horn to change the directivity to 100° x 25° or 60° x 25°, making it easy to tailor the coverage to specific acoustic needs. This adaptability is ideal for various setups, ensuring optimal sound distribution no matter the venue or installation type.

The C 45's cabinet is constructed from high-quality birch plywood, ensuring both durability and excellent acoustical performance. The cabinet is finished with a polyurea coating, providing a tough and resilient exterior that can withstand the demands of professional use. The speaker is protected by a robust steel grille with clothing and foam backing, safeguarding the internal components while allowing for clear sound transmission. Installation is simplified with multiple rigging points available on the rear, top, bottom, and sides of the cabinet, allowing for easy mounting on walls, ceilings, or trusses. The two Neutrik Speakon NL4 connectors on the back panel provide a secure connection for audio input and output, ensuring compatibility with professional audio systems.

The RCF Compact C 45 is designed to meet the demands of high-power sound reinforcement, delivering clear, distortion-free audio with exceptional durability and flexibility. Whether used for large-scale events or permanent installations, this speaker provides outstanding performance and reliability, making it a valuable addition to any professional sound system.
