And my choice is.....RCF !

[Spirits High]

Further to my thread on RCF's I went down to HTF today and Adam kindly demo'd various speakers.

The ones demo'd were:

Rcf 312a (350w)

Mackie SRM450's V2 (450w)

QSC HPR 1221 (500w)

JBL Eon 515

I know this will open (probably) another can of worms but I went with th RCF's just ahead of the QSC's.

Soundwise it was great to get a side by side comparison. To listen to the Mckie and RCF next to each other there was no competition. For me the Mackie was too "harsh" with the top end . The RCF was my prefered sound.

I was nearly swayed by the QSC but unfortunately it was nearly as heavy if not slightly more than my current PSR15a's I liked the sound from it alot, but wasn't prepared to keep doing my back in.

The JBL's were over budget although a didn't find it a "warm" sound so wouldn't have got them anyway.

So there you go.

I went for the RCF's and look forward to using them for the next couple of years at least.

Was that with a flat EQ, out of interest? Low Cut or Contour buttons in at all...? (I my Mackies)

You didnt go for the 15inch speaker Paul?

Any reason--apart from cost?

Was good to catch up mate.
Glad the visit was worthwhile.

I'll PM you tomorrow at some point, was rushed off my feet 'till 6

Did two other side by side demos with the SRM 450 v2 & the RCF Art 312s as they were out, and both customers bought the RCF's, so earnt my wages for today

Either way, side by side, there's a huge difference, with the RCF outperforming in clarity, tightness and bass.

Had i known you were on commision Adam, i would have asked for you when i got mine

The RCF really are the dogs dangaly bits. I was a bit aprihensive at first because i'd only ever used old RCF stuff that was a tad rubbish. But these are quality. I nuse the 312s on their own a fair bit paul and they are sweet...even better with a bass bin in the set-up. Future purchase maybe?

I wish I did mate, it was just a tongue in cheek comment.

Whether I sell an RCA to RCA cable or 20 RCF cabs, I get all

Another happy RCF user then. They will serve you well. Ive had mine now about a year. I upgraded from the SRM450s as many know.

Im glad i did

The ART 705 bin for that extra bottom end is a must when funds allow. It is one of the best active subs out there and will sound lovely with the 312A's

Absolutely. With that rig you can get busted for excessive noise , no trouble.
