I really love the aesthetics of this speaker and this the first standard Bluetooth speaker that I’ve seen with a down firing woofer that isn’t like the surround sound speakers(ex Sony SRS-RA3000)
How about a test with an EQ app that boosts 5KHz about 3-6dB? There seems to be a dip in the frequency response curves I've seen published. The Go Plus Play 2 sounds better in the midrange/voice to me compared to the Go Plus Play 3. Comparing Go Plus Play 2 and 3, the Go Plus Play 3 sounds like you are at the door of room with music playing inside and the Go Plus Play 2 sounds like you are in the room with the music.
I'll definitely try and test it out with some eq apps, I know the other youtubers that did harmon kardon go plus play 3 vs other speaker did it with stock eq, we just all figured out about the treble and bass equalizers so I'm curious to see if the treble eq 3 would help fill in the mids and make it sound better or how it now compares
@@JagistreviewsGotchu, well that's odd because now I have to adjust the eq to my liking everytime I use the speaker. They should've just let you keep the eq from the previous adjustment.

Harman Kardon Go play 3 is JBL boombox killer! 👑🤘
In certain areas I would agree

I agree 100 percent I'm loving the authentic of the go plus play a ton

Congratulations.Don't forget the same process, 3 kinds of bass mode from the left side in the same way, my friend.👍🏻
@onurrrgultekin yup I figured that out and made another video on it, I'm glad they made eq for it for treble and bass
i feel like it should have a bass boost eq but the bass is really good. eq 3 sounds the best to me
Agreed they should for sure have an bass boost button on it, every other speaker does, but ya I agree eq 3 sounds best to me to
@@Jagistreviewsit exists
@@TheAscendedTechNinja nice I had no idea, that's awesome!!!
Just one more mystery to explore... Now there is talk of the bluetooth and volume down button do the same thing, but on the bass side...
I'm going to test that out today a little and see what it does and I'll try and make a video on it asap
Bluetooth pairing and volume down to control bass eq
Oh dang I didn't realize you could control the bass, what setting do you keep yours at?
@@Jagistreviews default since I didn't know it was custom eq I was doing 😅
@@TheAscendedTechNinja fair enough ha ha I'm going to mess with mine a little
😂😂😂😂 I’m 3 months thinking why HK company make this speaker at $350 and didn’t put equalizer 😂😂 now I know about treeble and bass eq
@kewincolon6290 yup I'm glad they did put bass and treble equalizer modes for it, it's a dang good speaker
When you turn off the speaker, do the equalizer settings reset to default?
I don't think they do on mine, let me do some test real quick
Does it for you? I trying to figure this out as well on mine.
@@wesleytseng5131 I think mine does actually

Great review, what's the name of the song?
Mama zula- better get it right
What about Bass Boost Equalizer?
You press Minus and Bluetooth.
It makes the bass stronger.
@bass_freak it works good, I always keep mine on the bass boost, it's got insane bass
@@Jagistreviewsdo you have to activate it every time you turn it back on?
@chrisdwyer1477 nope it remembers, at least mine does
Yeah.
Harman Kardon it stays on it.
It is Good.
🙂

You push the bluetooth and what button?
@@Jagistreviews he write - on subwoofer
@@14boya thank you 😊
I had two JBL Boom Box 2's. This sounds a shit load better Quality... A much more satisfying Listen. I prefer setting 1 its so Balanced
Agreed honestly the harmon kardon go plus play 3 is probably the best sounding speaker I own

Reduced seems to be the only tolerable one. Highs murder my soul lol
For the bass?
@@Jagistreviews I'm saying eq 1 with the reduced highs is my favorite. I think yours is the opposite lol.
@franciscoantonio5306 ya ha ha I like bass all the way up and treble at least at 2
Can you do an excursion test please with the sub
Yes I sure can, I'll post it tomorrow
Music adress please
You can use the Bluetooth button with another one I don't remember which one to change the bass up to three modes also
I figured that out as well, and it sounds so good with bass up on it
