RCF SUB 8008-AS – Professional dual 18-inch subwoofer

The RCF SUB 8008-AS is a professional active dual 18-inch subwoofer for live sound, DJs, clubs, events, rental companies, and touring. This impressive subwoofer is designed for applications where deep, powerful bass and maximum sound pressure are essential.

The SUB 8008-AS features two 18-inch high-power woofers, each equipped with a powerful 4-inch voice coil. The woofers are developed for high power handling, fast response, and low distortion. The result is a deep and controlled bass reproduction that pairs perfectly with professional RCF top speakers and line-array systems.

The built-in 4,400 Watt Peak Class-D amplifier delivers enormous power reserves and can produce a maximum sound pressure of no less than 137 dB SPL. Thanks to the highly efficient amplifier and convection/forced cooling, the system remains reliable during prolonged professional use.

The frequency range spans from 30 Hz to 120 Hz, ensuring the SUB 8008-AS provides not only a hard punch but also the deep low-end required for modern dance, electronic music, and live productions.

Extensive DSP options are available on the rear panel. The user has access to multiple crossover presets, phase settings, Deep/Punch selection, output delay, and cardioid presets. This allows the subwoofer to be precisely tuned to the top speakers used and the venue’s acoustics.

A key advantage for professional productions is the cardioid functionality. With multiple SUB 8008-AS systems, the amount of low-end radiated towards the stage can be significantly reduced. This is particularly interesting for live bands, festivals, and large events.

The cabinet is fully constructed from plywood and finished with a wear-resistant polyurea coating. The sturdy steel grille protects the woofers during transport and use. Thanks to the two M20 pole mounts, the subwoofer can be used both horizontally and vertically.

With its combination of two 18-inch woofers, 4,400 Watt Peak, 137 dB SPL, and extensive DSP, the SUB 8008-AS is an excellent foundation for a serious professional sound system.

RCF SUB 8008-AS – dual 18-inch, 4,400 Watt Peak, and 137 dB SPL. A true touring powerhouse for deep, tight, and impressive low-end.
