Beautiful and simple design

Ability to connect up to three Bluetooth devices at a time

The editors didn't like
Almost too large to call portable
But it can be if you need it to be
Expensive
Odd iPod dock design makes screen hard to see
Remote’s complexity-adding iPod menu navigation features are thereby worthless. Despite boombox functionality
System isn’t as ruggedized or iPod-protective as some competing options

Abstract: Harman Kardon designed a great sounding, great-looking portable speaker system with the Go + Play, but unfortunately the form hampers function. For a speaker designed specifically for the iPod (and the video iPod at that) it is a shame that accessing t...
Abstract: The Harman Kardon Go + Play iPod speaker system is, like all of the company’s products, gorgeous. It’s a black and metallic device that looks both futuristic and retro. Like most of HK’s audio products, it also sounds fantastic. In fact...

Whether you’ll think Harman Kardon’s new Go + Play ($350) is an excellent or merely a very good new iPod speaker system will mainly come down to one question: how many alternatives you’ve heard. Having tested virtually all of the m...

Very good sound performance, excellent bass, powerful
Easy to overload auxiliary input
Obviously there are plenty of cheaper Bluetooth speakers around, but if you have a little space and are after premium sound quality, you won't go wrong with the Harman Kardon Go+Play portable Bluetooth speaker.* The specifications do talk about things lik...
Full, deep sound, Eye-catching design, RF remote control, Multitude of useful inputs and outputs
Isnt compatible with the iPhone or many recent models of iPods, Bulky power adapter, Awkward dock, No EQ or radio, The design isnt for everyone
The Harman Kardon Go + Play is one of the best-sounding portable iPod speaker systems you can buy, but its high price and lack of compatibility with recent iPod models make it a limited recommendation. ...
Great bass, detailed mid-range, rich sound, powerful remote, handle makes for great portability
Dock placement is poor, slightly rolled-off low treble notes, no bass or treble controls
Harmon Kardons Go + Play is a brilliant high-end iPod dock. Its audio is well balanced and almost flawless. The design has one niggling issue, but the large, sturdy handle certainly adds to the units portability ...
Love-it-or-hate-it design. Excellent sound detail both top and bottom. Works with D-cell batteries for trendy picnics.
Love-it-or-hate-it design. Controls are ergonomically awkward. Remote feels cheap.
When it comes to pure audio, this is a great unit. Which makes it a shame that it doesnt have a more pure design. Some buyers will love it and it will suit their minimalist loft apartment to a tee. Others will walk into the room and think &quo...

Abstract: For those of us that have strong memories of untangling speaker cables, Bluetooth speakers can seem like witchcraft. Plonk a pill-shaped box on your shelf, or hang it up in the kitchen, then zap your music to it with nothing more than a few swipes. No kno...
