A Portable All-in-one Live Sound Solution

Seeking a full-featured live sound solution in a compact, easy-to-set-up form factor? RCF’s EVOX J8 is an active portable PA system that delivers stunning sound performance across the entire frequency spectrum courtesy of a single 12-inch woofer in the lower bass reflex enclosure and eight 2-inch ultra-compact, full-range drivers in the upper tower. This impressive setup is ideal for solo performers, small ensembles, DJs, and more to project a beautifully musical and highly accurate reproduction of their sound to the entire audience — with a single piece of gear. Add in the high-level DSP section — including RCF’s cutting-edge FiRPHASE technology — and lightweight, portable composite enclosure, and the EVOX J8 might be the all-in-one solution for your live sound needs!

Cutting-edge FiRPHASE technology

To ensure the highest quality of sound possible, RCF speakers harness the power of FIR (Finite Impulse Response) to allow for 0-degree linear phase playback. It’s a highly advanced system allowing for an exceptionally coherent sound distribution to the entire audience, with minimal phase distortion and minimal latency. Astounding clarity, maximum transparency, and picture-perfect imaging: RCF’s FiRPHASE technology is all but guaranteed to elevate and refine the sound of your system.

Robust 1,400-watt Class D amplifier

The RCF EVOX J8 features a robust 1,400-watt Class D amplifier, fine-tuned to deliver massive sound pressure levels with an exceptional attack, natural transients, and minimal loss of heat. Moreover, this amplifier’s unmatched efficiency allows the EVOX J8 to perform to its fullest without a cooling fan — the amplifier is mounted directly to a solid aluminum heat exchanger to reduce the need for moving parts and increase long-term reliability. Lastly, the input circuit’s low-distortion operation ensures that your signal’s character remains true to the source at all volume levels.

Effortless stage setup

Apart from its world-renowned RCF sound, Sweetwater’s live sound pros find that the EVOX J8’s greatest asset is its sheer ease of use. The 1-2 punch of a 12-inch woofer at the base with the integrated tower containing eight 2-inch ultra-compact full-range drivers cuts down on setup time (and van space!) since the tower mounts directly to the top of the bass reflex enclosure. Simply screw the pole into the top of the sub, plug in your SpeakOn cable, and the EVOX J8 is ready to go! The pole even offers adjustable height to find the perfect sonic position for the 8 x 2-inch driver tower.

RCF EVOX J8 Active Portable PA System Features:

  • All-in-one live sound solution for solo performers, bands, DJs, and any small- to medium-sized venue
  • Combination of 1 x 12-inch bass reflex enclosure and 2 x 8-inch full-range driver tower delivers stunningly clear sounds across the entire frequency spectrum
  • 1,400-watt Class D 2-way amplifier puts out up to 128dB max SPL
  • FiRPHASE technology all but eliminates phase distortion and latency
  • Incredibly easy to set up — screw the tower’s pole into the top of the bass enclosure, set your height, plug in, and play
  • Lightweight and easy-to-transport portable composite enclosure

Rated 5/5

Just buy them

I bought two RCF J8 in 2022 from a different vendor. Glad to see RCF at Sweetwater now!

Absolutely amazing speakers. Would buy them again over the competitor's column speakers. Biggest plus is the pole mounted top gets high enough to get over the crowd, not so with EV Evolves and similar... they're all too short unless your audience is seated.

RCF seems to be a better built speaker, this coming from ac EV and JBL fan... Bonus is the top stores in the base. Much easier to carry than separate bags for the top columns.

I do dances and events, my pair of J8 has no problem at 100-125 people with headroom to spare. if you're looking at Evolves you need to listen to the J8 and JMix8.
Rated 4.5/5

RCF J8

Best array system in my opinion! Easy to haul set up and tear down. Its sound is superior to JBL and EV's array systems in my opinion.
Able to adjust high pack to fit your needs!
I own two of them and use them for everything. Very happy with them! Highly recommend them. You be the judge looking at and hearing all aspects of the equipment experience and you too will come to love the RCF system!
