We are expanding our popular and powerful POLAR column system series with the addition of POLAR 8, a compact system that is extremely easy to transport and delivers optimal sound results even in confined spaces.  Convincing 1,200 watts (peak power) and the same impressive sound aesthetics as its big brothers POLAR 10 and POLAR 12, POLAR 8 is the ideal choice anywhere where flexibility and perfect sound are required, making it the perfect companion for musicians, entertainers and DJs on small stages, in rehearsal rooms, seminar rooms and at garden parties. Equipped with a three-channel mixer and Bluetooth TWS (True Wireless Stereo), POLAR 8 truly shines with its power and expression.

Six powerful 2.5″ neodymium speakers with 1″ voice coils work in a curved column arrangement in the POLAR 8 mid/high unit. With dispersion angles of 120° x 45°, they provide clean and uniform sound, even in difficult or low rooms. The 8″ high-performance bass speaker is housed in a metal-reinforced plastic/ABS subwoofer enclosure for dry and accurate bass response. A powerful, 1,200-watt (peak power) Class-D power amplifier provides superior power reserves and offers stable, consistent sound at any volume.

Unlike systems with continuous speaker configuration, POLAR can be used without a spacer on stages, as a monitor system and with a seated audience. The plug system specially developed for POLAR makes set-up quick and easy and means the column elements can be connected to the subwoofer wirelessly and without wobbling.

POLAR 8 offers a three-channel mixer including Master volume control and modern Bluetooth 5 audio streaming. Two channels are provided as XLR/jack combo sockets for microphones and line signals, e.g. for mixers or keyboards, and an AUX channel with cinch sockets for DJ equipment or MP3 players, which simultaneously controls Bluetooth audio. Bluetooth 5 allows up to four times the range of older Bluetooth versions with a Bluetooth 5-capable device. Two POLAR 8s can be simply and wirelessly connected to a Bluetooth device via Bluetooth TWS to form a true stereo system. The Sub Level and Treble controls allow the overall sound to be adjusted to local conditions or personal taste in next to no time.

A padded bag for the mid/high unit and spacer, as well as a padded transport bag for the subwoofer, are included. POLAR 8 is now available in stores for €649.00 (RRP).
