HK Audio Linear 5 MK2 110 XA vs RCF NX 910-A

What the HK Audio Linear 5 MK2 110 XA does well: Part of HK Audio’s LINEAR 5 MK II series alongside the HK Audio Linear 5 MK2 112 FA: the 10-inch model, with an angled cabinet that doubles as a stage monitor and weighs only 32.8 lbs (14.9 kg). Watch for: No independent measurements yet, so it can’t be compared with ranked PA speakers.

What the RCF NX 910-A does well: The plywood enclosure and FiRPHASE/Bass Motion Control processing make it a sturdier systems alternative to the RCF ART 710-A MK5, with a wide 100° x 60° pattern and 130dB claimed peak. Watch for: The truncated vendor measurement does not yield a preference score, preventing a confident tonal comparison with the scored leaders.

Buy the HK Audio Linear 5 MK2 110 XA. It is rated higher for sound quality, and saving $200.99 with the RCF NX 910-A does not make up for the sound-quality gap.

Worth knowing: the HK Audio Linear 5 MK2 110 XA has not been measured yet. Its rating is estimated from related models, with a likely range of 3.2 to 4.0, so treat this verdict as provisional.

Pros: Part of HK Audio’s LINEAR 5 MK II series alongside the HK Audio Linear 5 MK2 112 FA: the 10-inch model, with an angled cabinet that doubles as a stage monitor and weighs only 14.9 kg. A 1,200W peak (600W RMS) bi-amplified Class D module with DSP drives it, and HK rates it at 135dB peak with 80° x 60°, rotatable coverage.

Cons: No independent measurements yet, so it can’t be compared with ranked PA speakers. Bass stops around 74Hz (-6dB), so it needs a subwoofer for full-range music.
