I've been searching for a suitable portable iPod sound system. The Harman Kardon system I found it. The design has initially held back some of the purchase decision, as there are of JBL and Co visually appealing systems. But what mainly matters is now time the sound and processing. They are just phenomenal in this system. The sound is saturated. Crystal-clear highs and voluminous depths. Both lovers of classical music as well as friends of bass oriented music come here on their enjoyment. It tops even my compact system that was 200 euros more expensive. I have compared systems in consumer electronics store from 70 Euro to 700 Euro. Even the much more expensive Bose system has clearly lost here. The system is unlike its counterpoint hands processed very solid. Nothing rattles or has game. Through the stainless steel carrying handle it's wonderful to be transported. One can either AC power (adapter for US port lies) or 8 mono batteries operate (battery operation about 15 hours). So Ideal for the lake or camping trip. Thanks to the included small Fernbediensung, all necessary functions (on, off, volume, stop, play / pause and standby mode) can be conveniently controlled by distances greater than 6 meters. The remote control can be stored in a small storage compartment at the rear of the system. Thanks to a small audio input (cable is included here), any external audio source can be used here.
Conclusion: Despite my initial skepticism small, I'd buy me any time. The sound is bombastic. It beats the competition by JBL, Bose and Co by far. Use it only and compact system dust in the corner.
