HK Audio Sonar 112 Xi — Professional 12-inch Active Speaker with 1200 W Power

The HK Audio Sonar 112 Xi is an advanced active loudspeaker designed for the most demanding professional applications. Whether you need a full-range speaker, a stage monitor, or a component of a sound system paired with a subwoofer — this model meets every challenge. The combination of powerful components and HK Audio's precise acoustic engineering guarantees impressive sound experiences with clear, powerful bass, distinguishing this speaker from the competition.

Powerful Sound and Advanced Acoustic Engineering

The heart of the HK Audio Sonar 112 Xi is a 12-inch cone driver working in conjunction with a 1-inch compression driver housed in a constant directivity horn. This configuration, combined with an AB + D class amplifier delivering a peak power of 1200 W, ensures exceptional sound detail — from deep low frequencies reaching 54 Hz to crystal-clear high tones. A maximum sound pressure level of 127 dB SPL (peak 130 dB) allows for the reinforcement of medium-sized spaces without compromising sound quality. The 90° × 60° directivity pattern ensures even sound coverage, eliminating dead spots in the listening area.

Three Input Channels and Built-in Mixer

The Sonar 112 Xi offers three independent input channels, allowing simultaneous connection of various signal sources. Two channels support balanced XLR/jack combo inputs designed for both microphone and line-level signals — an ideal solution for vocalists, instrumentalists, and presenters. The third AUX channel features a 3.5 mm mini-jack input and a Bluetooth 5.0 module, enabling wireless music playback from smartphones or tablets. An additional Mix Out XLR output allows the mixed signal to be sent to subsequent devices in the audio chain.

Advanced DSP Processor and Built-in Equalizer

The built-in DSP processor offers a full set of sound-shaping functions, accessible via the 1.83-inch color display with an intuitive control knob or through a dedicated app. The three-band parametric equalizer (EQ) allows precise adjustment of the frequency response to suit room acoustics and listening preferences. Three factory presets — Live, DJ, and Monitor — ensure quick setup for typical scenarios, while the Low-Cut Filter effectively eliminates unwanted low frequencies. Speaker safety is ensured by Thermo-Protection, Overload-Protection, a subsonic filter, and Peak and RMS limiters, which protect the drivers from damage even at extreme volume levels. The Delay function allows for precise time alignment of signals in multi-channel installations.

Bluetooth TWS and Wireless Music Streaming

Thanks to the Bluetooth 5.0 module with TWS (True Wireless Stereo) technology, you can wirelessly stream stereo-quality music to two HK Audio Sonar 112 Xi speakers simultaneously. Automatic Bluetooth pairing makes setting up a stereo configuration a matter of moments — an ideal solution for parties, DJ shows, and temporary installations where cabling would be cumbersome. The AUX channel additionally accepts analog signals from any source equipped with a headphone output.

Convenient Control via SONAR REMOTE App

The dedicated HK Audio SONAR REMOTE app, available for iOS and Android platforms, provides full control over all speaker parameters from anywhere in the room. Using a smartphone or tablet, you can adjust the volume of each channel, change three-band EQ settings, select DSP presets, configure the low-cut filter, and adjust the Delay function — all in real-time, without needing to approach the speaker. The app significantly streamlines work on stage, during rehearsals, and while performing, eliminating the need for manual device configuration.

Durable Enclosure and Versatile Mounting Options

The HK Audio Sonar 112 Xi enclosure, made from high-quality plastic, combines lightweight construction with the robustness required for professional touring applications. The steel front grill with an anti-corrosion coating and acoustic foam effectively protects the drivers from mechanical damage and weather conditions. The speaker is equipped with a 35 mm pole mount socket with tilt adjustment ranging from 0° to -7.5°, three M10 mounting points for harness suspension, and a 35° monitor angle for comfortable use as a stage monitor. Two ergonomic SingleGrip handles facilitate transport and positioning. The jet black (RAL 9005) color provides a professional, discreet look suitable for any stage setup.
