About the Harman Kardon Go + Play
Sophisticated styling and superior sound
Sophisticated styling and superior sound
Who says portable Bluetooth speakers have to look like boxes — or deliver boxy sound? Not Harman Kardon. Their Go + Play is for those who expect more. Its fine fabric finishing and the stainless steel handle appeal to the eye. And the speaker's clean, detailed sound definitely appeals to the ear. The Go + Play uses Bluetooth 4.1, so you can enjoy near-CD-quality sound while streaming wirelessly from compatible devices.
Quality sound for music and conversation
The Go + Play features two 3-1/2" woofers for clean midrange and low tones, plus two 7/8" tweeters for accurate, clear high frequencies. You'll enjoy spacious, detailed stereo sound.
You'll experience clear, easy-to-hear conference calls as well. The system has two built-in microphones, so everyone around the table can be heard. Plus, built-in noise cancellation helps keep distracting ambient noise to a minimum, so your callers can hear you clearly.
Power to spare
The built-in rechargeable battery provides up to 8 hours of continuous operation. And there's a USB recharging port to keep your smartphone or tablet playing.

The Harmon Kardon (HD) has amazing sound. Its a perfect way to save $$ if you bought Alexa dot. The speaker is far superior to any speaker that comes with Alexa line and sounds better then my bose. The horns are amazing & 100 watts is over the top outside.
