Polar 12 : Poles Apart!!

3 years ago

I thought i would put an unbiased view of this speaker system. I purchased a pair of HK Audio Polar 12's in March 2021. After lockdown i started gigging about the middle of August and up and till now "June 2022" i have been using these every week.

I know a lot of reviews on hear are all varied, but i have been using these every single week without any problems. The only thing that i would say is, when you are setting up with a mixer, you have to drive the master output to get the full potentional of volume needed in certain venues. If you use the factory settings, it would trigger the limiter quicker and therefore be quieter in output volume.

Personally, i've found a happy medium when setting the master level, i set it at either 5 or 6 on both speakers.

I highly recomend these speakers, just make sure you set the gain staging between speakers and external mixer.

5***** from me.
