OT: RCF Powered PA Cabs



I talked to a sales engineer at Sweetwater this morning about purchasing one of the Mackie 10" powered cabs, and he highly recommended that I buy the new RCF Italian made cabinets. Apparently, they did some A/B tests this morning between them and the Mackie's and the RCF's blew them away...and the prices are really good.   Apparently Mackie acquired RCF several years ago because of their high quality transducers, and then Mackie went off to change their specs and design, but RCF continued on with their own line (now separate from Mackie).  I guess Mackie farmed their manufacturing off to China, and RCF remained as they are now in Italy. I don't know the complexities of the split. Here is an interesting discussion on the split on the Mackie forum: http://forums.mackie.com/scripts/forum/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=7;t=002178 (the comments vary, but a few folks talk highly of the RCF line).
 
Check it out. I'm thinking of buying the 10" cab.
 
 
I found a new ART 310 A on the web for $400.
 
Anyone using these cabs?
