he ultimate live performance system

When it comes to delivering truly powerful performances, the LINEAR 5 series components prove to be absolute powerhouses. Designed to handle daily use masterfully, they are the most powerful speaker series in their class, both in the passive and active versions. The robust LINEAR 5 system family, designed in traditional wooden construction, guarantees long-lasting use, making it the tour companion of choice for professional bands, DJs and rental services. It frees up space in the truck and, even more importantly, in the budget. The LINEAR 5’s perfectly matched mid-range driver/tweeter and three fundamentally different subwoofers make it the perfect bespoke solution for events with up to 3,000 people and more.

Excellent long and short throw performance

Whether for powerful, high-volume music transmission, high-fidelity speech reproduction or background sound – the finely tuned LINEAR 5 set configurations live up to the high demands that a durable, high-quality PA system has to meet. HK Audio’s specially developed Multicell Transformer (MCT) technology in the long-throw version manages to achieve what is normally only possible with larger horns or line arrays: distortion-free transmission at a high effective level. A real all-rounder, LINEAR 5 also boasts simple and intuitive handling.

The LINEAR 5 112 XA is an active multifunctional speaker optimized for voice reproduction in the frequency range from 100 Hz upwards and therefore ideal for use as an active mid/high unit for high ranges.

Since these applications do not require a high level of deep bass, HK Audio has cut down on cabinet volume in the design and developed a clever, compact multifunctional cabinet: Thanks to the slanted cabinet shape and the 60° x 40° CD horn for optimized, directional dispersion, the speaker also acts as an amazingly powerful stage monitor with low feedback.

The professional standards are rounded off by the wooden cabinet, high-quality components and innovative technologies that make the LINEAR 5 from HK Audio the loudest speaker family in its class. The LINEAR 5 112 XA also proudly bears the label “Made in Germany”.
