RCF ART 708-A MK5 — Compact Active Two-Way Power for Live Sound

The RCF ART 708-A MK5 is a compact active two-way speaker built for musicians, DJs, and venue operators. An 8-inch woofer and 1.4-inch compression driver are driven by a 1400 W peak Class D amplifier reaching 128 dB max SPL at one meter. This fifth-generation model brings RCF's latest DSP and transducer refinements to the proven ART 7 platform, making it a flexible workhorse for stage and stand-mount use.

Standout Features: FiRPHASE DSP and XBOOST Low-Frequency Enhancer

What sets this model apart is the pairing of FiRPHASE filtering with the XBOOST low-frequency enhancer. FiRPHASE applies a proprietary FIR algorithm for coherent, zero-degree linear phase playback so every listener hears the same sound image. XBOOST unlocks perceived deeper bass from the 8-inch woofer without pushing the driver past safe excursion, while a 90° × 70° constant-directivity horn keeps coverage even across the room.

Technical Parameters

Who Is It For

This model is the right choice for solo performers, duos, mobile DJs, and small venue operators who need a self-powered speaker that runs full-range or pairs with a sub. It works as a stage monitor, on a speaker stand, or pole-mounted on an RCF sub such as the SUB 15-AX. The microphone input suits presenters and worship leaders, while the XLR link output chains a second cabinet easily.

RCF — Italian Pro-Audio Heritage Since 1949

RCF has been building professional loudspeakers in Italy since 1949, evolving from paging horns into one of Europe's most respected live-sound names. The ART series has been the company's portable-speaker flagship for years, and the MK5 generation is the fifth major refinement. RCF designs its own transducers and DSP firmware in-house, so every ART 7 MK5 model shares the same 1400-watt digital amplifier architecture.
