HK Audio Sonar 115 Sub D is an active subwoofer with 15” drivers with DSP and integrated mixer. It includes a volume control and 3-band equalization for each channel that can be adjusted intuitively using the knob and color display. Thanks to the free SONAR REMOTE app (for iOS and Android), all functions can also be controlled remotely for greater convenience

Revolutionary technology, cutting-edge development tools, and advanced production methods: combine all of these factors with decades of audio experience, and very special things can happen. This is exactly what happened with the new SONAR speaker family: it is the first of its kind to offer high-quality sound at an affordable price

The Sonar Remote

app The SONAR REMOTE app for iOS and Android tablets and smartphones is more than just a quick and easy way to control the built-in digital mixer. It allows you to control all the settings and functions of the SONAR Sub D models, including the parameters of the 3-band equalizer. You can also save scenes and presets to make them available on demand by controlling parameters such as frequently used microphone adjustments, modified SONAR Sub D settings, or basic configurations for different positions

All settings changed in the app are displayed simultaneously on the SONAR Sub D speaker display and vice versa! Both displays synchronize in real time

Cardioid emission from the HK Audio Sonar 115 Sub D subwoofer

The cardioid principle consists of canceling the frequencies radiated in the back. While medium and high frequencies can be radiated in directional patterns, low frequencies are spherical. This often leads to an unpleasant excess of bass on and behind the stage. SONAR 115 SUB D meets all the requirements, both mechanical and acoustic, to implement effective cardioid configurations quickly and easily, reducing the bass radiated in the rear by up to 30 dB! Not only does this make stage performances much more relaxed, but it also results in a better sound, as the microphones no longer pick up unwanted low frequencies. A second SONAR 115 Sub D can be used to increase the sound pressure level in the bass range. The classic full-stack configuration with two forward-facing subwoofers increases sound pressure by 3 dB in all directions. But what makes the SONAR 115 Sub D so special are its cardioid capabilities. It has two special presets that allow you to configure a cardioid configuration, in which the lower subwoofer projects backwards, without the need for complex calculations or time

To do this, simply direct the lower SONAR sub to the rear and select the Cardioid Rear preset, then direct the upper sub to the front, selecting the Cardioid Front preset. Now both subwoofers can sound perfectly together without having to make additional adjustments.
