Short answer: the RCF KX 10-A. It ranks #8 of 42 10-inch pa speakers by sound quality, rated 4.0/5, at $2,798.50; the KV2 Audio EX10 ranks #17, rated 3.7/5, and costs $2,900, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
The KV2 Audio EX10 is the deeper-bass choice. A specialist powered 10 inch PA speaker with deep bass for its size, a large compression driver, and built in DSP for clear vocals. Its bass reaches about 54.5Hz before falling 3dB, against 73Hz for the RCF KX 10-A. The tradeoff: At a roughly $2900 asking price this specialist box is far less accessible than the mainstream leaders, and user controls are comparatively spare without an onboard mixer or app control.
The case for the RCF KX 10-A: A loud, wide covering 10 inch powered PA speaker from a flagship pro range, in a manageable cabinet for installs and events. The tradeoff: The local measurement is truncated and cannot produce a preference score, and pricing/retail availability are not yet well established for this model.
Buy the RCF KX 10-A. It is rated higher for sound quality than the KV2 Audio EX10 and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
