Harman's popular Go + Play portable speaker is currently available for $129.99, marking a significant 71% discount from its usual price. This offer includes free shipping and a one-year manufacturer's warranty on a new, not refurbished, unit. Such substantial price reductions are infrequent, presenting a notable opportunity to acquire one of the best-sounding portable speakers on the market for under $200.
The Go + Play, while an older model, remains Harman's flagship portable offering. It is designed for portability, though its 7.5-pound weight and larger size distinguish it from many other portable speakers, a trade-off Harman made to prioritize sound quality. The internal audio system features a 2-channel stereo setup with two 20mm tweeters and two 90mm woofers, engineered to deliver a balanced soundstage. Connectivity options include Bluetooth for pairing with up to three devices simultaneously, a USB port for charging mobile devices, and dual microphones for conference calls. The speaker provides up to 8 hours of playback on a single charge.
While the Harman Kardon Go + Play is not waterproof or as rugged as some alternatives like the Sonos Roam, it excels in delivering audiophile-quality sound in a portable form factor. At its current sale price, it stands out as a compelling option for those prioritizing audio fidelity in a wireless speaker.
