#35 RCF ART 712-A MK4: $509.00 B&H Photo Video Guitar Center eBay
Pros: The 17.8kg cabinet combines 129dB claimed peak output, a broad horn and RCF’s FiRPHASE processing in a straightforward package. Its measured response extends to roughly 65Hz before the first major roll-off.
Cons: The low-quality vendor measurement is truncated and cannot produce a reliable preference score. This discontinued MK4 offers little reason to choose it over the newer ART 712-A MK5 unless the used price is substantially lower.
Related speakers: RCF ART 712-A MK5.
How it compares: Just above it: RCF ART 732-A MK4 - $540 more. Just below it: Audiofocus VENU 12a - $2381 more.
