Both sound great. The simple difference for everyone to understand is. The Aura is room filling, you can place it at the centre of a room and get awesome sound everywhere. The Onyx is more directional and sharp. Placing it in the corner of a room sounds best. Sound will vary depending on where you stand in the room.
Onyx has a backfiring woofer while the aura has a downfiring woofer. Placing the aura beside the onyx and at ear level cannot justify the bass it emits. One would have to place the aura on the floor and be at a higher position to experience its upward reflecting bass. I own both an aura 3 and an onyx 6. Both sound majestic. Just that the aura sounds overall more powerful, shakes the floor and its mids and vocals are much clearer than the onyx due to its dedicated transducers
Thanks for the review. I just bought an aura 3, it's $130 from HK directly. Not thrilled it is plug-in only, but I have others to compare to and that move around. Plan to use this solely with a vinyl player
Aura seems to have better bass but the lack of portability and the non directive sound is an issue for me, the onyx 8 is easier to lug around but lacks overall volume and as an owner of the onyx 7, my main issue is battery life.
Diste en el clavo. Esa falta de portabilidad inhabilita el que Aura pueda colocarse en una mesa de centro. Porque ni modo que éste colgando el cable de alimentación. Así que la tendré que instalar cerca de una esquina. La tengo pero aún no la estreno. Es mi Aura 4 y espero buen resultado sin decepción..
GREAT VIDEO .👍 THE AURA STUDIO 3 HAS THE BEST BASS SOUND . MY BROTHER & LAW HAS ONE AND IT BE SHAKING THE 2 ND STORY APARTMENT FLOOR . NOW I WONDER HOW THEY BOTH COMPARE TO THE " JBL BOOMBOX 3 " , BOOMBOX 2 , AND CHARGE 5 AND SMALLER . MAY THE BASS BE WITH YOU .🤗🤗
@@deadpool-wp1eqNo, JBL Xtreme 3 for instance won't produce such smooth and deep bass as HK Onyx Studio 7&8 but it somewhat produces more robust, solid and veiled bass than HKs. The overall sound quality on HK speakers is better and smoother while you may notice that the bass on JBLs are somehow boomier, heavier and overall they're louder speakers in comparison.
The encore has higher overall volume but harman kardon speaker have unmatched deep bass, meaning at equal volume you will have better sound quality but for most people in a party, the party box encore would be better with higher volume overall. Translation : harman kardon for home use for quality of sound, party box... For party and dancing.
I prefer the aura studio 3 for its cohesion and more genuine sound quality,I have the studio onyx 7,if u listen to clear mids and forward vocals onyx wins
There's no comparison between the Onyx Studio 8 and Bose Soundlink Flex. The Studio 8 is much more powerful. It produces deeper, Punchy bass which can't be matched by Bose Flex because it's smaller. The bose is no doubt a great speaker but since it's small it can't match the powerful sound of the Onyx Studio 8

Harman kardon aura studio 3 is more deeper 25hertz bass rating . Harman kardon onyx studio 8 bass hertz 35.
Bruu the sound quLity of your sound test is superb👌👌👌 please make more of this kind of videos. I choose the cleaner sound of Onyx studio 8👍
Thank you😇
@@KULASTECHSHOW20 Why did you so show the Watts and all the specific sound quality of the aura but not the onyx. Aura 130 watts. How about Onyx 8?
Although Studio 8 sounds clearer and louder, I like studio 3 more because its sound is more punchy and deep.
100watt it designed for punchier bass i think

со мной уже 3 года kilburn 2, батареи хватает на работе, смотрю варианты от harman

Is jbl as clear as HK?
@@deadpool-wp1eq no, jbl/ harman is upgraded edifier put simply

Great comparo 👍👍👍. Thank you cuz u help me decide 😊
I am listen this with onyx 7
Great video
I prefer the onyx 8 it's not because i own the 7 but listening this with onyx 7 made me choicz the onyx 8
Finally a comparison with good music.
I wonder how these two speakers compare to the Partybox Encore Essential. Especailly against the Aura Studio 3
The encore has higher overall volume but harman kardon speaker have unmatched deep bass, meaning at equal volume you will have better sound quality but for most people in a party, the party box encore would be better with higher volume overall.
Translation : harman kardon for home use for quality of sound, party box... For party and dancing.
How about comparing two Onyx Studios vs one Aura studio as they will be the same price in the US?
my vote goes to onyx studio 8 👍👍👍
Thank you!
I think so too
I prefer the aura studio 3 for its cohesion and more genuine sound quality,I have the studio onyx 7,if u listen to clear mids and forward vocals onyx wins
hk Aura 4 and onyx Studio 8 can be paired?
What is your mic?
Aura is handling bass load easily. What u think guys?
the bass on onyx 8 sounds bigger than aura 3, which do you think is the best onyx 8 or aura 3? 🙏🏻☺️
The Onyx 8 sounds clean overall and well balanced to me👌
Do you really listen to that music?
Title of music?

Hì, does the Onyx 8 sound better than the Bose soundlink flex?
I'll have to make a comparison to know.
There's no comparison between the Onyx Studio 8 and Bose Soundlink Flex.
The Studio 8 is much more powerful. It produces deeper, Punchy bass which can't be matched by Bose Flex because it's smaller.
The bose is no doubt a great speaker but since it's small it can't match the powerful sound of the Onyx Studio 8
The Aura 3 sounds more danceable to me.
I saw you didn’t put in the specs for the onyx..
HK Aura 4 and ONYX Studio 8 can play in pairs
Aura studio crystal clear sound and deeper heavy bass
Aura studio 8 more punchi bass n fast,studio 8 has great vocal n good bass control
Aura studio 3 better bass and sound???
The Aura 3 has some slight edge in bass dept and power. But mid's & high's are cleaner in Onyx 8
😅 that's Auro studio & aura studio 2.
Name song?
Pls check the description box
Like the sound of both, but the design is not for my taste.
Gostaria da qualidade e beleza da Aura com a portabilidade da da Onix.
Mas voltei aqui pra dizer que comprei a Onix e to muito feliz com ela 😍
