Because the engineers have given a lot of effort to get the maximum out of here. I admit that he is a little bassy, but with the help of the tone controller on cell phone or other devices because you can correct something. The sound is generally yes subjective. I've tested quite a few BT Speaker u. I finally decided on the Go + Play (and Creative Zii D5).
In the test were represented Grundig GSB 500, Panasonic SC-NA30EG, Creative Zii D5, Bose SoundLink, Sony BTX 500, Samsung As F60, Beats XXL Pill.
Although many small portable BT speakers can to be quite rugged, but a super sound can conjure up not so, for example, would be here Bose SoundLink Mini, UE Boombox, JBL Flip etc. to mention. On the go but they are perfectly OK, just a bit too expensive for my taste (100-200 EUR). Then rather just buy a full-fledged speaker. If I absolutely need on the go something small, then meet here also max. 30 EUR.
The Go + Play is the only speaker who convinces fully. The thing is though, with its 3.5 KG already one hell u. Go maybe not as convenient to stow it, but what u here momentum. Spatial stereo imaging is performed is beyond reproach. However very spartan equipped with an audio in via 3.5mm jack, USB for charging other devices u. A battery compartment for receiving 8 thicknesses MONO D. The Speaker therefore is therefore also intended for mobile use, though not always exactly comfortable. The Harman is a real eye-catcher with a very stylish design. On the front of the main speakers with separate high u. Woofer, they are surrounded by a metal ring. Is at the back was a little cheated because also two openings are present that should suggest that you are dealing here with two speakers, but in fact a dummy u. The second opening for the subwoofer / bass reflex thought. When carrying handle is a steel structure that virtually extends in a semicircle on the entire unit.
Again the sound:
It was inspired by some already criticized that Harman has slept through it to install a APT-X codec, but what's the point when most speakers despite APT-X will not be able to be reproduced a knotless sound, especially since in most no powerful amplifiers are installed. Harman has here very strong amplifiers on board u. The onsite process uses True Stream. The bass is very powerful u. Be felt everywhere in the room, the crystal clear treble u. Not covered. The sound of the bass is very convincing and even at low volume. Very present. One can thus also provide sound loose larger rooms. Friends u. Acquaintances were very surprised u. Absolutely delighted with this gem. When operating the speaker with 8 Mono D cells, you realize of course that the full power drops, but still better than other devices in this price range.
For me, the operation was meant to be used throughout the living area as well as possible in the garden, so that bothers me the relatively high weight also not particularly.
From me there so here is a strong buy recommendation!
