Remote useless as you can’t see what’s on the iPod
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...
The best-sounding transportable iPod speaker system yet released, with impressive detail across the entire sound spectrum, particularly in the bass department, and capable of doing pretty well at high volumes. Includes a good RF remote control, simple ...
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, and its...
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...

At just a few rupees short of Rs 30,000, the Harman Kardon Go + Play Mini had it tough from the word Go (pun intended). It's not easy to justify this kind of price for a speaker system, and indeed we do feel that the Go + Play Mini is a bit overpriced. Ho...
Abstract: The jury might still be out on the smartwatch but the Bluetooth speaker has gone from ‘good to have' to being a bare necessity over the past couple of years. We pick ten Bluetooth speakers across price bands from the scores of speakers on offer. So whethe...
The Harman Kardon Go+Play is a real powerful portable and wireless speaker. It has a well-built design that can easily fit on any space. In terms of portability, this audio device is suitable enough to carry around the house or when you have a dance rehea...
