I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience . Thanks to its 360-degree design, the Harman/Kardon Studio 3 has a wide and natural-sounding soundstage.

It’s an effect that isn’t obnoxious or unsavoury, but complimentary - especially with the evenings drawing in; you can see the dome glow ever so slightly like a timeless valve glass speaker. Distortion and other artifacts can occur both because of sound processing and because of the quality of the speakers.

I’m not gonna say that it’s the quality of a super nice stereo system but it is fantastic for a Bluetooth speaker.

Unfortunately, it lacks sound customization features like a graphic EQ or presets, so you can't tweak its sound to your liking. Around the speaker are touch sensitive buttons: one for Bluetooth control, one for power, separate ones for volume and one we only recently discovered on the front to disable the lighting. I wouldn't recommend using something like this but if you must, use a small mixing console to mix playback and the microphone and feed it into this device. Its brand sibling, the Harman Kardon Citation 200, earned a tie for top score in this genre, with a 147, matched by the Sonos 5. The Bose supports Wi-Fi connectivity and offers incredible voice assistant support with Alexa and Google Assistant built-in, who do an excellent job of hearing you from far away and in noisier settings.

However, the Harman/Kardon is a wired speaker designed for home use that offers a wider and more open-sounding soundstage, thanks to its 360-degree design. The Harman/Kardon can get louder with less compression present at max volume and can produce a slightly more extended low-bass out-of-the-box. With a transparent body and ambient lighting, the Aura Studio 3 will add prestige to any interior home décor.

Its power button is sunken into the rubber strip, while its Bluetooth pairing button is slightly raised.Unfortunately, it struggles to reproduce low-bass, so you can't feel the deep thump and rumble in bass-heavy music. It can also get pretty loud without much compression at max volume, resulting in clean audio during louder listening sessions.

At first I was quite worried but after communicating with the seller, I am being convinced and decided to go ahead with the purchase!
