Let's hear how Harman Kardon's latest compact portable speaker sounds compared against the competition.

I made some quick outdoor measurements of all 3 speakers, to give you an idea about the relative sound differences (UE Boom with its indoor mode):

Finally a classic Oluv's speaker review!

Simon Hibbert

Expensive especially as also hearing too mono vibe but otherwise nice tight sound. This site is nicely set up better I see. 👌

Foltea Iustin

Yes. That's exactly how it feels like

Nutzt du den Tribit Home Speaker eigentlich auch für Musik, oder hast du den nur zur Deko bzw. wegen der Uhrzeitanzeige und den LED da stehen? Hab den quasi als Nachttischlampe (einfarbig orange LED) mit Uhrzeit in Gebrauch, höre aber nie Musik damit...

Tom Jansen

That were the good old days. Still happy with my EarFun UBoom L.

Brolle

I agree - best spent money - bought 2 of them. When comparing to JBL etc they sound excellent

I’m desappointed with H/K Luna. Not real deep bass, I Will keep my two beosound A1 2gen. They in stereo are a real small hi-fi system. No resons to upgrade.

What you are expecting? 40-50hz from that small speaker?

The A1 Bass is fake, it swallows attacks and applies lots of processing. The Luna doesn’t play very deep but the bass is always perfectly under control with no hints of distortion. It sounds also way fuller than the A1 at high levels. Of course it would be nice to have that deep bass of the A1 1st gen in a pocket sized speaker, but there are compromises to be made, and the 2nd gen was a step backwards IMO

When Harman Kardon advertises the frequency response, they mean it. when I saw that the H/k Luna reach 60Hz I was excited about it, but that’s not the reality, Denon says 65Hz and it seems to reaches deeper. the mono Luna having so boosted bass will sound more extremely boomy paired in stereo while having a tweeter and being way more expensive than the Ubiom l, still the highs on the Uboom l are better. The A1 2nd gen reaches quite deep being only 60% of the size of H/K Luna.

Miguel Kiesse

yes sir Oluv the A1 first gen are the definition of fake sound. I had 2 for 3 long years because of the wonderful stereo image they created. now I have 2 A1 2nd gen, they are weaker, less soundstage but way more natural sounding. but when connected in sync mode(not in stereo) they sound as powerful as the vifa Helsinki for my surprise(bass and loudness) and still more enjoyable.

I never heard 2 A1 in stereo. I liked the 2nd gen but attacks sounded very strange, kick drums together with bass sounded somehow cut off and it was considerably less powerful than 1st gen but overall more natural sounding. I was impressed by the 2nd gen at rather low levels, although outdoors it sounded a bit underwhelming. Maybe I will get one again once if price should drop.
