Good, thank you very much for uploading the video, a question, which cable should be used to connect to an iphone directly
I pray, please take care of me
Sorry for my english, it's from google
greetings from Spain

[@djdeepkanga1245]

Its Balanced XLR in/out puts.. ur not suppose to Connect an Iphone directly to this speaker, U should run ur phone through a dedicated mixer that has XLR outputs..

Buenas, muchas gracias por responder y aclarar compañero

@@ildefondo1 Ur welcome.. U can buy a cheap 2 or 3 channel mixer that has the phono inputs (red and white cable) for youre iPhone, and has XLR outputs. Were talking 30-50 bucks/euros ;-)

[@djdeepkanga1245]

Looking to buy a pair of these to og With my EV ETX18sp.. Looking for a pair of PA speakers that has big sound stage, With both clearity and punch. my current tops sounds too much like a Budget mobile DJ PA system. What you didnt mention is that RDnet allows you to make youre own presets on the computer that you can save into the speaker. Thats IMO a keye feature. The speaker basicly has a 8(?) band built in EQ ;-)

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Ahh thanks for that info about RDnet! Left that out for sure. These are killer.

[@mikelo303]

Is RDnet free or paid? Can you run calibration test with microphone using RDet to calibrate those speakers to a room you are in?

Hello Ras,

Thx

[@hibbasc1]

Will there be a 12” version coming - ie HDM 32a?

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Not that we're aware at the moment, but never say never!

[@mikelo303]

Any plans for 12 inch version?

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Haven't heard anything yet but we'll be sure to announce if so!

[@dantonliam]

2200 Watts???? For fills???

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Surely! Sometimes larger halls, or venues that have odd acoustics may need a bit more muscle.

[@idjnow-gear-up]

When they say PRO applications, they're talking about events at the Central Park Lawn in NYC - Thousands and thousands of people...Not just private events 200-300 people. Make sense?

[@petarcholakov9352]

Is this the loudest speaker at this price point. And how does this compare to the jbl srx815p

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Thanks for your comment Petar. From what i can tell you both are very good choices. However for a smaller box this HD-45A by RCF is a good buy as well as the SRX815P. the differences are between the both is the RCF has a 4 inch voice coil for the HF (High frequency drive) so you'll get more output from the highs and a bit more distance. The Jbl has a warm sound, great for live sound as well as the RCF. JBL is a wooden cabinet and the RCF is a plastic mold. either way you cant go wrong. Reach out to us at anytime or just visit at www.idjnow.com/

@@idjnow-gear-up which speaker has better bass because I owned the yamaha dxr15 mk2 and the highs were ear piercing loud but the bass just wasn't enough for me. I'm looking for a speaker that can produce some very loud highs and a strong bass output. I've heard good things about the srx815p, etx15p and rcf

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Thank you for your response Petar. usually 2-way speakers don't give out bass unfortunatly separate subs would, but i get you question. Its which one has a stronger Mid-range output if you were using these speaker alone without a subwoofer. one thing i can say is that the RCF is a very clean and large HF (high frequency output) on the HD45A but if the highs are too much RCF also offers the HD 35A a bit smaller on the high output as well. if your in the NY area or NYC area i'd rather you come in for a sound demo if that can help address your concerns. you can go to IDJNOW.COM and click store locations.

[@petarcholakov9352]

@@idjnow-gear-up I would love to demo these speakers but I live in London. I just would love to have strong hitting bass. I've heard the srx815p has good bass response but im still not sure.

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Thanks for your response. Yes i get it. I'd probably would try and see who may have those in your country and maybe get a demo, however you can reach out to RCF directly and they can point you out to someone or company that maybe near your area that can assist in demoing.
