The football season in Germany has now kicked off across all three of the country’s professional leagues. Once again, HK Audio sound systems will be in use by teams playing in every division this season, with clubs across the Bundesliga, 2. Bundesliga and 3. Liga relying on the brand for parts of their stadium sound system.
In the Bundesliga, Germany’s top league, Millerntor Stadion in Hamburg, home of FC St. Pauli, benefits from HK Audio loudspeakers to ensure clear sound and an enhanced matchday experience for the tens of thousands of fans who pack the ground every week.
The 2. Bundesliga, the country’s second division, will see several sides field the superior performance of HK Audio stadium systems. SV Elversberg is one of the modern success stories of German football, rising from the Regionalliga Südwest to the 2. Bundesliga over the last four years, narrowly missing out on promotion to the Bundesliga last season. Their Ursapharm Arena relies on VORTIS 2 and INSTALLATION LINE loudspeakers to cover the 10,000-capacity venue and has been upgraded many times to keep up with the team’s progression on the pitch.
Böllenfalltor Stadion, home of SV Darmstadt 98, relies on an EN 54-24 certified VORTIS 2 system to provide clear announcements as part of the critical voice alarm system as well as VORTIS 2 and SI SERIES. Hertha BSC’s Olympiastadion in Berlin also benefits from HK Audio’s powerful and flexible VORTIS 2 loudspeakers, which provide life-safety announcements across the outdoor areas of this historic venue. In addition, at Vonovia Ruhrstadion, home of VfL Bochum, HK Audio systems support clear announcements and reinforcement across the venue.
