For a relatively frail pair of over-ears
The Harman Kardon Soho pack quite a punch with a 16Hz-20kHz frequency response. Mids sounds warm and encompassing
But it’s the bass especially that impresses

Crisp reproduction of the lows (Do be aware though that this makes them much better suited to listening to music - we found that the bass tended to magnify unnecessary noises in online
Wellintegrated and easytouse touch commands
Quality materials and construction
Warm sound
Power and very little distortion

Harman Kardon is known for its design chops
But we’re not convinced about the Soho’s aesthetics
Not by a long shot. The straight lines
Felt and pastel colours all combine to create a 70s vibe - these look like something you’d see on the coffee table of a Danish shipping magnate’s hillside concrete home on stilts
Especially the disgusting muddy brown model (trust us
Go for the black or white)
Comfort really depends on the size of your head
Mids and treble slightly underpowered
Overall sound masked
Calling in a noisy environment isn't easy
It's fairly expensive at $250
It doesn't sound quite as good or fit as comfortably as the Bose SoundLink On-Ear Bluetooth

The Soho Wireless will have trouble finding a place in the premium Bluetooth headphones market: this model lacks comfort and, above all, sound quality. Harman/Kardon should really have concentrated on correcting the faults already present on the wired ver...

Harman Kardon's new Soho Wireless headphones are rich with innovation and style, but it all comes to a halt when you crank up the heavier tunes. There's a solid design here that hints at greatness, but the sound is simply lacking. The bottom line is, we ...

The Harman Kardon Soho headphones certainly have a distinctive look, but unless you’re especially taken with the square shape, they’re not worth the price. They’re not especially functional, and they’re far too fiddly to actually be portable - you’re b...
