Description
Designed specifically for professionals deploying top-tier sound reinforcement at live concerts, performing arts centers, sports venues, and premium installations, the RCF KX 08-A is a 2000W active 2-way point-source speaker that's tuned for absolute clarity and deep, powerful bass. The KX 08-A combines precise directivity, high SPL capability, and advanced system integration. A 2000W amplifier delivers 1400W to the 8" neodymium woofer in a bass-reflex design, while a 600W amplifier powers the high-frequency neodymium compression driver with a 1.75" PKX dome, coupled to a 90 x 70 True Resistive waveguide, rotatable by 90 to ensure flexible coverage options. The integrated amplifier features proprietary DSP processing and remote management via RDNet that enable optimal system performance. The rugged, tour-ready, high-quality Baltic-birch plywood cabinet is easy to carry and installed securely using the dedicated rigging points.At a Glance 128 dB SPL MaxRotatable 90 x 70 TRW horn8" neodymium woofer, 2.5" voice coil1.75" PKX dome, neodymium compression driver2-channel, 2000W Class-D AmplifierDSP Processing with FiRPHASE and BMCRDNet Networked ManagementpowerCON TRUE1 TOP mains connectorsAdvanced Electronics The high-powered Class-D amplifiers, tailored for each transducer, deploy pristine sound with efficient heat dissipation at the lowest possible distortion, along with low power consumption.High-end AD/DA conversion and onboard DSP for the best sound quality. Thanks to the proprietary RDNet networked management and control, every KX speaker provides in-depth remote monitoring through multiple sensors. The system engineer has immediate feedback of transducer status, fan speed, temperature, VU meters, limiters, and much more.Precision Transducers Low FrequencyThe 8" high-power cone transducer integrates Bass Motion Control (BMC) DSP and FiRPHASE-optimized crossover to extend the low-frequency range and enhance midrange efficiency, matching the waveguide dispersion for perfect coverage continuity around the crossover point.High FrequencyPaired with the True Resistive Waveguide (TRW), the 1.75 compression driver incorporates a newly developed dome crafted from PKX (Modified Polyether Ether Ketone). PKX is a rigid yet lightweight, colorless organic polymer, possibly the best of the thermoplastic resin film for its superior specifications. Designed by the RCF Precision Transducers laboratory, the dome is reinforced with ribs to obtain a slim, but rigid profile. This innovation delivers greater precision and reliability for demanding audio applications.RDNet Network Control RDNet is an advanced platform for integrated monitoring and control of sound system from small live and installed setups to massive arena systems. Based on a robust networked architecture, RDNet combines system control, line array design, and comprehensive audio measurements into a single powerful software package.Engineers and technicians can intuitively manage every device on the network, from individual components to multiple groups. The platform provides full DSP control of compatible devices, with flexible configuration tools for perfectly tuning the system response at maximum speed. Users have real-time access and oversight of all key settings from a centralized interface.Robust and Durable The enclosure is made of high-quality Baltic birch plywood, glued with water-resistant adhesive and coated with weatherproof polyurea paint, ensuring excellent waterproofing, UV resistance, corrosion protection, and durability against abrasion, impacts, and mechanical stress. The solid machined aluminum structure efficiently dissipates heat fanlessly, improving enclosure stiffness, while the high-strength structural steel rigging ensures a high safety factor for secure weight management. Die-cast aluminum handles with ergonomic rubber grips enhance usability.Reinforced structural designWater-resistant Birch enclosureDurable polyurea paintHigh-strength steelErgonomic handle
