Price

£535.00

The HK Audio POLAR 8 MK2 Column PA System is a compact, all-in-one PA solution for DJs, public speakers, and smaller performances, delivering professional-quality sound without the bulk of a traditional PA system.

 

Built around a powered subwoofer and slim column speaker, the POLAR 8 MK2 delivers high-quality, detailed audio without losing important low frequencies, while remaining easy to transport and set up.

 

Its built-in three-channel mixer provides connections for microphones, line-level sources, and Bluetooth devices, giving you plenty of flexibility on the road or on stage without needing a separate mixing desk.

 

Enjoy wireless playback with the POLAR 8 MK2's Bluetooth audio connectivity, and link two POLAR 8 MK2 systems with True Wireless Stereo for a wider stereo setup and fuller sound. Three Contour sound settings make it easy to optimise the system for different setups, including music, DJ performances, or the spoken word.

 

The Mix Out connection also makes it easy to integrate additional PA equipment, including active speakers, monitors, and subwoofers, so that you can build out your system from just one Polar 8 MK2. It includes transport bags to protect the system when travelling between locations.

 

Fast and Convenient System Setup

 

Designed with portability in mind, the HK Audio POLAR 8 MK2 assembles quickly with minimal cabling. The column elements attach directly to the subwoofer, eliminating the need for separate speaker cables and keeping the setup neat. This is especially important in smaller, more compact stages and spaces.

 

The system can also be configured without the spacer when used on a stage or other raised platform. Protective covers for both the subwoofer and column components are included, making it easier to pack away and transport the system while protecting it from everyday knocks and scratches.

 

Three-Channel Mixer for Microphones, Instruments and Audio Sources

 

The integrated three-channel mixer gives the POLAR 8 MK2 the flexibility to accommodate a variety of audio equipment. You can use two combination XLR/jack inputs for microphones or line-level sources, while the third channel accepts stereo RCA connections and Bluetooth audio.

 

Individual channel controls let you adjust each source independently, making it easier to balance vocals, music, and other connected equipment. The balanced Mix Out provides an additional output for connecting the POLAR 8 MK2 to another PA system, stage monitor, active subwoofer, or front-of-house mixing desk.

 

Contour Sound Control for Music and Speech

 

The POLAR 8 MK2 features an adjustable Contour control that lets you shape the system's overall sound to suit different applications. This gives you a straightforward way to optimise the PA for different event types without navigating complex processing options.

 

For DJ sets, you can emphasise a fuller and more energetic sound, while music playback can benefit from a more balanced response. For speeches, presentations, and other vocal applications, you can adjust the system to prioritise vocal definition and intelligibility. A separate subwoofer level control also lets you adjust bass based on the venue, audience size, and system placement.

 

Bluetooth 5 Streaming and True Wireless Stereo

 

With Bluetooth 5 connectivity, the POLAR 8 MK2 allows compatible smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices to stream audio directly to the PA system. This is particularly useful for background music, playlists, breaks between performances, and other applications where a physical audio connection isn't required.

 

For wider coverage and true stereo playback, you can connect two POLAR 8 MK2 systems using True Wireless Stereo. This creates separate left and right channels while reducing the amount of cabling required between the speakers. It's a practical option for DJs, performers, and event organisers looking for a tidy, flexible PA system.
