RCF ST15-SMA 2-way 15" Stage Monitor

ST Series features a Birch plywood cabinet, finished with an extremely resistant paint for an extensive use on the road. Every detail is developed in order to optimize acoustical performance and ensure easiness of transport.

 

CURVED PROFILE FOR A BETTER SOUND

Two sides show a distinctive inward curve. The reason behind this original design choice is related to sound optimisation. In a cabinet with a standard design, sound waves reflect on the cabinet's edges, thus creating undesired effects of absorption and disturbance or decreasing sound coverage. In our ST Series sound waves don't hit the sides because of the slightly concave profile with moulded edges that helps avoiding all acoustical drawbacks.

 

HEAVY-DUTY FRONT GRILLE

Instead of being simply flat, the grille shows a distinctive design with 3 sides. This arch-inspired structure adds resistance to the whole system, creating a more balanced distribution of forces when the stage monitor is subject to stress and pressure, as often occurs during tours and live performances.

 

ONLY 4 INVISIBLE SCREWS

This charming cabinet is firmly anchored by 4 screws only. The screws are carefully tighten and hidden into small built-in holes, for a sleek and discreet aesthetics of the cabinet. Invisibile bolts are also less subject to wear and tear.

 

ULTRA-RESISTANT STEEL POLE MOUNT

Thanks to the integrated steel pole mount, the ST 15-SMA can be turned into a standard speaker in vertical configuration with a few simple moves. The use of steel instead of plastic makes the whole system particularly reliable and robust.

 

PERFORATED HEX GRILLE

The hexagonal shape of the holes is chosen with the purpose to maximise the empty space on the grill, thus making sound propagation clearer, with less absorption and reflection. The perforated hex grille allows the sound to propagate freely, with less disturbance if compared to circles or other shapes. At the same time ST Series grilles are particularly strong and rugged, ideal for use on the stage.

 

INNOVATIVE GRILLE FIXING

The grille is fixed by specialized technicians in our Italian factory, with an innovative component that avoids grille vibration: a small isolating rubber element placed between the cabinet's edges and the grille, in order to avoid undesidered acoustical interference due to the grille's oscillation.

 

FOAM BACKING

A special transparent-to-sound foam backing on the inside of the grille ensures protection from dust and humidity.

 

ERGONOMIC SIDE HANDLE

An ergonomic recessed handle is positioned on the side of the speaker.
