NSD: RCF ART 708A Mk5

[meb]

I was looking for a lighter weight speaker than my QSC K8.2 that would
compete soundwise. I tried the CP8 but just did not bond with it.

The RCF ART 708A Mk5 is an 8" frfr PA speaker weighing 22.9 lbs with lots
of power.

I received the 708A yesterday, and it sounds marvelous. It doesn't have
as many knobs, dials and switches on the backside as the K8.2 but sounds
similar at $500 vs $800.
All those knobs, apps, switches, etc just confuse me anyway. :-)

It is much more resolving and natural than a CP8 at the same price.
It is 4 lbs lighter than the K8.2 which makes a difference to me.

I will have more time this weekend to do further evaluation, but I am off to a
good start.
