harman/kardon Onyx Studio 7 - Portable Bluetooth Speaker Blue

Product Information

Onyx Studio 6 actually has slightly stronger bass, but this isn’t necessarily a good thing. Some users feel the bass is too “boomy.” But again, this difference is only perceptible if you are testing both speakers alongside one another.

The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 8 is a very beautiful, elegant and original wireless speaker. The weight of 3.5 kg does not make it the most comfortable model to carry, but we can easily carry it around the house. Although you can take it outdoors, where we tested it, you have to be aware that it is not waterproof. Connectivity In general, Harman Kardon onyx studio 7 Bluetooth speaker still has unique and innovative craftsmanship in its shape design, and the minimalist style is just right. In addition, the sound quality also performed well. The speaker only supports SBC encoding meaning it isn’t compatible with higher-fidelity codecs like AAC or AptX which is significant for a speaker at this price. It’s also only compatible with Bluetooth 4.2 which is a bit behind the times with Bluetooth 5.2 releasing in 2020. Battery/FeaturesThe Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 8 is powered by a 3250mAh battery, which according to the company can provide up to eight hours of battery life. According to our tests, the company’s prediction was correct, and we were even able to enjoy more than eight hours of music while using the device without being plugged in. Given that the volume is high, it is most likely that you will not use it more than 40% at home, so the battery life will reach these 8 hours and even a little more.

In this new review, we take a look at the Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 8, the latest generation of the American company’s most popular speakers. This Ony Studio series has evolved in design, and when you see it for the first time, it’s quite striking. In fact, almost nothing has changed since the seventh generation, but it is still quite distinctive with its unique design that features a ring for easy installation. Its sound is defined by a wide audio that fills large rooms and delivers really powerful bass. In fact, it is capable of delivering intense bass at moderate volumes and good clarity in the mids and highs. Clearly, fans of punchy bass will have a lot of fun with this Harman Kardon speaker.

As extras, it has a hands-free function and allows you to pause and play music, as well as advance or delay the song. In addition to the handle differences, Onyx Studio 6 is also lighter than the 7 (by almost a pound). The Onyx Studio 7’s design is its best feature. It looks like a planet with a singular ring around it. It’s classy, unique and has an artistic quality to it. By adding dual tweeters into the latest evolution of Harman Kardon’s renowned line of portable speakers, the Onyx 7 creates the illusion of an immersive, multi-directional soundscape. Crafted from premium materials, this speaker easily blends into your lifestyle and home. The sleek, anodized aluminum handle also doubles as a sturdy base for ease of portability. Sound quality, clarity, and bass are great, and those are ultimately the most important aspects of a speaker.Both devices can pair with another Onyx Studio for wireless sound. But there really aren’t many other features to speak of. These speakers function smoothly and without any interference. But you shouldn’t expect any bells and whistles.

Thanks to the two added high-frequency converters, the Onyx 7 provides an immersive sound experience. Elegant design At normal listening volumes (70-90%), you get about 5 hours of playtime from either speaker. Not terrible, but unspectacular to say the least. Both speakers are built with some plastic construction, aluminum handles, and fabric covering the speaker. They aren’t the most durable bluetooth speakers you can find, but they should hold up well to frequent use.The audio capabilities of the Onyx Studio 7 are very good. The 120mm woofer and the two 25mm tweeters produce a well balanced soundstage in which the highs, mids and lows all sound great. Many people will expect these devices to have a power bank, since it does have a USB-C port. Interestingly enough, this port only serves as a connection for firmware updates, rather than charging other devices. Of course, it comes with Bluetooth for wireless pairing with your phone, TV, or PC. Just tap the Bluetooth button on the top of the unit to activate pairing mode, which is indicated by a blue light. You can pair two different smartphones at the same time and stream audio from different sources. This is especially useful when using the Onyx Studio 8 at parties and family gatherings, as more than one person can play music. Harman Kardon estimates battery life to be roughly eight hours, but your results will vary with your volume levels. Onyx Studio 7 Audio Performance The Onyx Studio 7 is compatible with Bluetooth 4.2, which is a bit out of date, and unfortunately only supports the SBC Bluetooth codec—it won’t play AAC or AptX codecs. There's also no companion app with EQ, so you can't adjust the sound signature. The speaker can wirelessly connect with another Onyx Studio 7 to form a pair, at least.
