Harman Kardon Go+Play Mini 2 - Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Black

I ordered my Harman Kardon Go+Play back in February of 2018 and have been using it for almost four years.Quality: The build and overall quality of the speaker is fantastic. It's hefty and sturdy. The look is contemporary, minimal and slick. Portability-wise, it's better suited to being placed in your home and not really an on the go backpack speaker.Sound: The sound is fantastic. The bass is deep and convincing and the overall range from highs to lows is great. I have it under some cabinets in our kitchen and pair it with Spotify on my iPhone. The equalizer in Spotify allows for decent adjustments for the room. Again, the thing sounds really amazing with zero connectivity issues.Longevity: About 8 months ago, I started having problems with recharging/resetting the speaker and the same issues you'll read about here. HOWEVER, all Lithium Ion batteries die eventually. Most last around 400 or so charges. Search "lithium ion battery lifespan". After a couple years the battery was dying. So, I reached out to Harman Kardon and requested that they repair the unit for a fee. Unfortunately, customer service said that they could only give a discount of 30 or 40% on a future purchase. :( So instead...Replace the Battery: I'm not a handy guy but this was pretty straight forward. You'll need a thin phillips head screwdriver, a battery, an instructional online video and about an hour. Search "eyeglass mini screwdriver set" and "Harman Kardon Go Play battery". My total was around 30 bucks. After I changed the battery the thing didn't work until I checked the HK website and searched until I found the bit about pressing all five buttons. Boom!Overall: The Go Play is so great. I paid under $200 for it back in 2018. There is a lot of junk out there, so I like having stuff in my life that can be fixed and used for years to come. Highly, highly recommend!

This is the husband and this is a great product and sounds amazing for $200. Way better than any Bose or other typical bluetooth speaker in this price range. It has two real silk dome tweeters, two 3.5 inch mid bass drivers with huge magnets, and two passive radiators to increase lower bass. They spent a few bucks on quality parts. Clean, clear, and good balanced sound that you would expect from a real stereo set up.The bass is a little prominent but hits with a good slam that you don't get with other boomy products. If it is too much, then just move it away from the wall to reduce that if it suits your taste. Hey its basically a boom box, so I like it like it just the way it is.Some complain about the battery life, but it takes juice to put out this kind of quality sound. If you want battery life, get a UE Megaboom. They last forever (20 hrs), sound great in their own rite, but are in a different league sound wise. Have and enjoy both. The UE is great to travel with and obviously much more portable. Drops in your suite case or backpack without any hassle.Finally, any of the lower star reviewers who say that it doesn't sound that good, just don't know what they are talking about. Been around the audio business for decades, and this is a little gem. For $400 there are a lot of choices out there, but at half price and $200, it is probably the best value for quality sound right now until they are all gone.

Hands down the best bang for your buck. You really get what you pay for when it comes to speakers ALWAYS. This speaker compares to Bose, Klipch etc. It took a little bit getting used to the style but that sound is so delicious! The overall quality is not just in the sound but the speaker build is solid. That stainless steel handle is very nice! Zero rattle and zero distortion even at high volume. HK has a real winner here! I paid only $179 on sale and I will never look back. The bass was not powerful at first but it must have been the song I was playing because this speaker still surprises me with how deep and punchy it is!

This thing sounds crystal clear and is loud as hell! I’ve had several other blue tooth speakers like the W King 100 and JBL flip 5 and this easily beats them in sound quality and bass clarity. It’s not gonna thump you around like the bigger party bass boxes out there but for it’s sz there’s nothing comparable on the portable blue tooth speaker market that can beat this. I’ve had the HK Onyx and was impressed w the sound quality on that but the go play is like having 2 of those going at once. Great speaker. Definitely worth the money and I will definitely recommend this to friends and family. I mainly use it in myGarage for working out and when I tell you it’s set at half sound and it sounds loud I’m not lying to you.

i am truly surprised with the quality of sound, high fidelity, loud bass, clear vocalization, high brightness of this Bluetooth music player, its 100 Watts RMS is enough to fill any room, large or medium, no matter if it is at maximum volume, the sound will be clear and HiFi. I do not know if this player has a program that automatically equalizes the music, but there is no song that is heard badly. I believe, and if this model is on sale in a year for the Christmas holidays, I will buy another device to make dual sound, and it will be 200 Watts of pure fidelity. I'm sorry for Bose lovers, this is the best wireless player I've found, at only $ 179.95, it should be more than $ 500 !!!! It is a bid. Thank you Harman / Kardon for the technology used to manufacture this model!
