Renkus-Heinz CA121M‐RN Self‐Powered with RHAON, SA625‐RN Amp Module

Product Overview

The Renkus-Heinz CA121M-RN is a self-powered 12-inch coaxial loudspeaker built for networked installations that need accurate pattern control with remote DSP. It pairs a coaxial point-source transducer with the onboard SA625-RN amplifier module, providing balanced analog and AES/EBU inputs with RHAON II Ethernet control and monitoring. As a powered coaxial stage monitor and point-source loudspeaker, it fits auditoriums, houses of worship, and commercial meeting spaces where a network-controlled self-powered coaxial loudspeaker is specified.

Product Description

The CA121M-RN belongs to the Renkus-Heinz C Series, a range of premium installation loudspeakers built around Complex Conic waveguide technology for coherent point-source performance. The coaxial driver mounts a 12-inch woofer and a 1.75-inch voice-coil compression driver (SSC12-1) on a common axis, producing 80 degrees by 80 degrees constant-directivity coverage with a 33-degree monitor angle for floor-wedge or fixed-install use. The integrated SA625-RN amplifier module supplies 500 watts to the low-frequency section and 125 watts to the high-frequency section at 8 ohms, with multi-band peak and thermal limiting protecting the drivers. Connectivity covers balanced analog and AES/EBU on looping XLR-3 connectors, while dual RJ45 ports provide looping Ethernet for RHAON II control and monitoring. RHAON II software offers eight fully parametric filters, high and low shelving and pass filters, and delay to 340 ms, all supervised across the network. The amplifier is built in the USA and runs on 100-240 V auto-switching mains through a Neutrik powerCON TRUE-1 connector. Because all Renkus-Heinz SA-powered models share the same control platform, the CA121M-RN can be combined with other self-powered Renkus-Heinz loudspeakers, including the company's steerable columns. The CA121M-RN can later be upgraded to redundant Dante by moving to the SA625-RD module used in the CA121M-RD.

Key Features

• Coaxial Point-Source Transducer — A 12-inch woofer and 1.75-inch compression driver share a single axis for coherent, time-aligned coverage from one compact enclosure.
• SA625-RN Amplifier Module — The onboard Class-D amplifier provides 500 watts LF and 125 watts HF at 8 ohms with native multi-channel DSP and multi-band driver protection.
• RHAON II Network Control — Dual RJ45 ports deliver looping Ethernet for remote configuration and monitoring of every loudspeaker on the system.
• Analog and AES/EBU Inputs — Looping XLR-3 connectors accept balanced analog and AES/EBU digital sources.
• Comprehensive DSP — Eight parametric filters, shelving and pass filters, and delay to 340 ms are set and supervised over the network.
• Constant-Directivity Coverage — An 80 by 80 degree pattern with a 33-degree monitor angle holds consistent tonal balance across the audience.
• Selectable Mounting — Two M10 attachment points accept the optional UBRKT/CT121M yoke for wall or structural mounting.
• US-Built Reliability — The SA Series amplifier is designed and manufactured in the USA and runs on 100-240 V auto-switching mains.

Typical Applications

• Auditorium — Provides controlled, intelligible coverage for spoken word and music in fixed performance spaces.
• House of Worship — Delivers natural music and clear speech with networked control for distributed sanctuary systems.
• Conference Room — Supports high-quality reinforcement with AES/EBU and RHAON II network management.
• Commercial Meeting Space — Integrates into managed networks where remote DSP and monitoring are required.
• Multi-Purpose Room — Combines floor-monitor geometry and install mounting for flexible room configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the CA121M-RN and CA121M-RD? The RN provides analog and AES/EBU inputs with RHAON II network control; the RD adds redundant primary and secondary Dante networking.

Does the CA121M-RN support Dante? The RN model uses RHAON II Ethernet control with analog and AES/EBU audio. For onboard redundant Dante, choose the CA121M-RD.

Can it be combined with other Renkus-Heinz loudspeakers? Yes. All SA-powered Renkus-Heinz models share the RHAON II platform and can be combined on a single system, including the steerable columns.

What mounting hardware is available? The cabinet has two M10 attachment points and accepts the optional UBRKT/CT121M yoke.

Is technical support and warranty assistance available? Yes. Contact Creation Networks for current warranty terms, system design guidance, and integration support.
