Q: 8. Hi, How does the system remain cool when used for extended periods? Does it have a fan or vents? Best, Michael

A: The HK AUDIO POLAR 10 Powered Column Array System uses Class D circuitry which has an efficient design with heat sinks built into the circuit to help prevent over heating. This type of amp typically does not run as hot as Class A or Class AB amplifiers.

Q: 9. Two questions: does this unit have a volume control and can one use a headset mic, if so which one would be recommended?

A: This unit does have a volume control. The mic that comes with it is handheld and it looks like it has a standard-looking jack, so I don't see why you couldn't swap out the mic they provided with one of your own.

Q: 10. can I plug my Mackie mixer into it for more inputs?

A: Yes, you can connect into the 1/4-inch line inputs from a mixer for additional channels.

[250 W (Max)] Wet pleased with my item that I purchased. Got it very fast and fit perfectly 5

[902 to 928 MHz] I have been very impressed with my new Bose PA system that I use with my Yamaha YX-73 Stage Piano and Mainstage. The bluetooth connectivity is superb and opens up many possibilities for both practice, rehearsing and public performance. Only three channels, but it's so much easier to manage than having mixing board, amps, speakers, wires...etc. 5

[+12 V] Perfect for small and medium venues. Plenty of power great base for a full sound. I would recommend adding the tone match for added inputs and ease of adjustment. 5

[7 Ah] I have been using the L1s for well over a decade, around the building in spaces large and small, and outside for gatherings of all sizes. The brilliance of this speaker in delivering consistent sound to people anywhere in the room is hard to capture in words, other than 'magic'! This new version manages to pack the same robust sound into just 8 speakers, seriously reducing the footprint of the previous model, as well as solving some of my issues with blocking the bottom set of speakers with a chair on the previous model. The wireless capabilities are taking the old remote control onto a new level, and I am very excited about bluetooth addition. 5

David	16/08/2024
[902 to 928 MHz] I love this kit! The footprint is only as big as the bass unit, so no cumbersome stand-mounted speakers to fiddle with. I like that there are three inputs built in, so you can do more with this version than you could with the previous version without also buying an external mixer. I use this for acoustic guitar and vocals, both of which are first run through a TC Helicon. I know it sounds great that way, but have not yet tested it without the Helicon. With my current kit, I definitely sound better than I really do. For now, this is set up in my dining room, and I'm playing for an imaginary audience. But as soon as I'm up for it, I no longer have the excuse that I don't have the gear to do a proper gig. I have other excuses, but am working on those, too. Down side? The box was mangled pretty badly by the time FedEx made the delivery three days late, but nothing inside was damaged. For $1,800, it would have been nice for Bose to include a cover for the bass unit along with the very nice carrying case that was included for the stick speaker units. Also, I love the bluetooth remote controls that mimic the controls on the back of the bass unit, but it would be nice if there was a master volume control included. As it is, you have to adjust each input separately. 5

[902 to 928 MHz] I’m completely satisfied and impressed with this product. I’ve always trusted Bose so my expectations were very high and this sound system has blown mind mind. This is exactly what I was looking for for my living room to be used on my karaoke parties! So I’m not a audio engineer or something like music technician. I’m a piano and guitar player, and amateur singer (take that in mind). I’ve only used it in my living room so far, but I’m very confident that whenever I need to use it in my backyard won’t be disappointed. The quality of the rever effect on microphones is like no other for a compact system like this. I’ve tested an electro-acoustic guitar and sounds great ! 5

[+12 V] Perfect sound and fast delivery 5

[7 Ah] This speaker is banging, it no joke great fits for quick and easy setup for small bands and portable DJ. With no feedback . Worth the $$$$ 5

Orlando	07/07/2024
[1.9 GHz] I recommend it, excellent sound system, 5 stars. 5

TedG	24/06/2024
[1.9 GHz] I do a one-man-dog with WAV file backing tracks. Mostly smooth jazz, production pop rock, nylon guitar classical tidbits. All through a Pod Go wireless into the RCF J8. This thing is clear and light to move. No, it does not have the incredible mid-range of the bigger arrays with 20x3 speakers, but boy does this thing belt out some air! Really good for tiny restaurants and patio gigs. 5
