General

Looking for a powerful-and-professional speaker that's not overly big yet delivers surprisingly deep bass and clear vocals? Check out the RCF ART 708-A MK5 active full-range speaker. This smaller ART 7 Series unit features an 8-inch Neodymium woofer teamed up with a 1.4-inch compression driver for a seriously linear response. Add that to the bass-enhancing XBoost function, the smart cabinet design and the advanced DSP, and the result is distortion-free sound where the crossover, EQ, phase, soft limiters and electronic circuit protection are automatically optimised so you can sit back and enjoy bang-on audio.

Advanced Stage Kit

RCF have equipped this ART 7 MK5 speaker with the latest FiRPHASE filters and BMC algorithms, which means the dynamics, amplification and phase patterns are fully optimised for powerful, highly detailed sound. Meanwhile, the XBOOST Low Frequencies Enhancer deepens the sound without pushing the woofer past its limits, resulting in richer mixes without any help from a subwoofer. On top of all of that, every ART unit can double as a professional stage monitor, making these advanced speakers brilliantly versatile.

Nice and light to carry. Sounds great - good clarity for music and spoken word.
Bass is suprisingly powerful for such small speakers - had to reduce the bass in the mix on the first gig I used them.

Degelijk, krachtig en heel handzaam. Ik ben blij met de veelzijdigheid, zowel voor in de (repetitie-)studio als voor on the road.

Jai déjà des ART715 et des ART312 et j'ai acheté 1 ART708 comme retour pour les grosses soirées.
J'avais entendu que du bien sur les ART708 et je ne suis pas déçu, que du contraire.
Utilisé pour une petite soirée de 50 personnes avec un ART312, le 708 s'en sort mieux et avec l'option bass boost il y même trop de basse pour moi.
Bientôt un deuxième a commander.

Wordt vnl gebruikt voor spraak. Helder, warm en krachtig geluid. Zal het ook prima kunnen doen icm een sub. Die zal dan wel een hpf van ong 100 Herz moeten hebben. Dat is het enige wat ze bij deze speaker hadden moeten toevoegen.

Update: de jackplug is een input, geen output, wat de plaatsing wel suggereert. Daarmee vervalt mijn kritiekpunt.

Ik kan de vorige review 100% onderschrijven. Ik kocht deze ook als keyboard monitor en daarin voldoet hij uitstekend. Het geluid is clean en zeer gedefinieerd. De art 7 serie is wat eenvoudiger uitgevoerd dan de 9 serie die overigens geen 8 inch model heeft, wat ik wel wilde ivm draagbaarheid. Slechts 1 input, geen verschillende dsp standen, waarvan ik de “satelliet” stand wel mis. De x-boost functie haalt een natuurkundig trucje uit met boventonen waardoor echt diepe bas gesuggereerd wordt. Het werkt echt, maar op het podium wil je niet teveel rumble, dus ik laat hem uit. Full range speakers in dit prijssegment hebben vaak een gepimpte sound met veel bass en treble boost. RCF heeft dat ook, maar binnen de perken. Het geluid is zeker niet neutraal, maar wel prettig. Ben benieuwd hoe hij het als pa topje doet met een sub. Okee 1 kritiekpunt: waarom in hemelsnaam geen combojack op de input, terwijl je weet dat deze vaak als instrument monitor gebruikt wordt. Maar dat is het ook. Verder prima ding voor niet teveel geld.

eentje gekocht als keyboard monitor bij mijn MODX6. Klein. relatief licht. En HiFi geluid met nog behoorlijke bas voor de linkerhand. En.... Dit weekend in paddy's gebruikt (luide rock-kroeg). Pal naast een gitarist die zijn fender twin reverb hard vervormend op tien heeft staan. Smeekt die gitarist uiteindelijk "om AUB niet zo hard te spelen" ;) Eindelijk hoor je jezelf. Dit ding is onvervormd en fullrange vele malen harder dan wat dan ook. 1400W 129dB uit een piepklein handzaam monitortje. Voor minder geld dan een roland "keyboardversterker". Ik ben er erg blij mee.
