SUB 9019-AS is a high-performance 19″ active subwoofer delivering up to 138 dB Max SPL, powered by a robust 4000W Class-D amplifier. Designed for rigorous touring, the SUB 9019-AS features a tour-ready, weatherproof cabinet with a durable Polyurea finish and a detachable front cart for easy transport. Control is precise with RDNet network management, offering adjustable EQ, delay, cardioid options, and tailored crossover presets for RCF speakers. Innovative contactless configuration via RDTap allows seamless setup even when the unit is unpowered, ensuring perfect integration every time. Despite its small footprint and lightweight cabinet , the SUB 9019-AS produces powerful yet articulate bass, remaining true to even the most subtle low-frequency variations.

A New Definition of Bass. Simplified Tuning.Unrivaled Depth.

RCF has created a groundbreaking solution for offline/unpowered device configuration. With RDTap, users can inspect and configure devices without needing to power the device. Sound engineers can design a system within the RDTap App on the move and configure each subwoofer by tapping the RDTap logo, with RCF [patent-pending] contactless technology. As an alternative, RDNet management software enables comprehensive real-time control and monitoring of compatible, network-connected devices.

Drive the Rhythm of the Beat

With up to 8000 Watts of power, our Class-D amplifier can manage extreme sound pressure levels with an ultra-fast attack, realistic transient response, and very low thermal loss.

The stereo input circuit features a low distortion design with an advanced safety limiter, maintaining the true character of the input signal at all levels. RCF amplifiers are designed according to EN62368-1 for maximum safety and present a Switch-Mode Power Supply section that combines high efficiency with minimum weight.

Advanced Precision Transducers

SUB 9000 Series subwoofers incorporate the latest transducer technology from our labs. Employing lightweight aluminum core coils, high-damping cellulose cone material, composite spiders and a 4-layer inside-outside voice coil, the ultra-long excursion moving mass gains high power with fast acceleration. Despite their small and lightweight footprints, SUB 9000 Series subwoofers produce powerful yet articulate bass, remaining true to even the most subtle low-frequency variations.

High-Class Neodymium

Neodymium, a rare-earth material, enhances efficiency, power handling, and weight reduction. Using a 20% stronger magnetic field than typical neodymium grades, this new design enables precise control and higher force.

Tour Grade Solution

Designed for rigorous touring, SUB 9000 Series subwoofers feature tour-ready, weatherproof plywood construction with a durable polyurea finish. The included magnetic rain cover protects the connection panel from rain and dust, while rugged powerCON TRUE1 TOP AC connectors ensure reliable power delivery in any environmental condition. Subs are stackable and lightweight, have ergonomic handles with rubber grips, and are designed for easy set-up and tear-down. M20 pole mounts on the top and side of the cabinet offer flexible top speaker placement. Connections for a detachable front cart are included, enabling easy transport on wheels (cart sold separately).

Modular Suspension Kit

The modular Subwoofer Suspension Kit is engineered for extreme flexibility and safety in flown subwoofer configurations. Designed with high-strength steel components and compatible with various subwoofer models, the system supports secure suspension of up to 9 units while also enabling adaptability for cardioid configurations.

Bass Motion Control

When searching for an extended bass with enhanced performance, RCF engineers found a way to remove the high-pass filter, replacing it with a forward-thinking approach. Introducing BMC (Bass Motion Control), the newly advanced woofer excursion management feature. The speaker equipped with BMC can handle the lowest audible frequencies without affecting the woofer stability, with extended linearity and better sound integrity.

The BMC method works by creating a complete map of the dynamic behavior of the woofer, to generate a custom algorithm that only limits over-excursions. This gives total freedom of signal reproduction to the transducer. When high-pass filters normally protect the woofer motion from becoming destructive but change the phase behavior, the new BMC algorithm breaks conventional rules.
