Go + Play 3 - Portable Bluetooth speaker with superior sound and 8 hours playtime, USB Charging, Auto self tuning, Dual far-field microphones, Made in part with recycled materials(Black)

I bought this Harman Kardon bluetooth portable speaker to use as sound for an outdoor seated dinner party for 50 people under a large party tent with one back wall. My decision was based on reviews and HK's outstanding reputation. The HK speaker's sound was amazing. Such deep bass and rich tones! We played mostly rock and blues music for dancing at the event. Since then, inside the house, I've also played classical and jazz music and have found the speaker equally satisfying. It is beautifully designed -- I love the large carry-handle that arches gracefully over the top, low enough so that the speaker can rest comfortably on largish bookshelves if need be. The controls on the glass panel are simple and easy to use (I'm not a techie). I really like the fact that it can be plugged into an A/C outlet -- no worries about charging it up adequately before a party or event (though it does provide a USB port option). My one question is whether it needs a remote control. But since it pairs nicely with my cell phone, which has its own controls and ease of portability, the remote is probably not necessary.

Very happy with the HK Go + Play 3. Sound has great clarity, deep accurate bass and a relatively wide sound stage for an all in one portable speaker. Also has hidden eq modes for treble and bass (not mentioned in quick start guide). Short press volume + and phone icon buttons simultaneously to change treble eq. One yellow flash of the LED light is treble reduction. Two yellow flashes is default or normal. Three yellow flashes is treble boost. For bass eq short press Volume - and Bluetooth icon simultaneously. Again, one yellow flash for bass reduction, two flashes for default/normal and three for bass boost. Update: I continue to be more and more impressed by this speaker. It responds very well to the Spotify equalizer. Just a slight bump in the lower and mid frequencies and the already great sounding speaker becomes even more alive and absolutely fills the room with clear, rich, realistic sound. The bass is tight, deep and visceral. The vocals are crystal clear, rich and full. As others have noted, the build quality is very solid. It’s a bit on the heavier side but the weight exudes quality. Update 6-26-24: I liked this speaker so much that I bought a second one to pair it with. Pairing them in TWS is quick and simple. The sound quality which was already amazing is on another level now. Using bass eq mode 3 creates bass that is so deep, accurate and distortion free. Enough to vibrate your guts on bass heavy songs. I used a third party equalizer to give it a very slight bump at 400Hz. This added depth to the vocals. The overall sound is rich, clear and full bodied. BT range is excellent. No issues with dropping out or any type of glitches. One minor gripe. I wish the controls were backlit. Without lighting or any type of tactile indication of a button the controls can be hard to locate in dim lighting Also, this is not a great speaker for outdoor use. It’s best to place it in a corner or close to a wall to optimize the bass from the downward firing subwoofer Update 2-23-25: Bought a third one for my girlfriend a few months ago. Can confidently say that as good as the Go+Play 3 sounds out of the box, it will sound even better after a break in period. Never use to believe that speaker “run/burn in” was a real thing until now

This is Great , , it’s sounds amazing I love this system , it came right on time , I will recommend this to all my family and friends ❤️

Superb sound quality amazing Nice look

If you like bass, this the speaker for you. It was s on the bulkier side. Meant for set it down once find a good spot for it. Nice curvy aluminum handle. Wish the AC cord to be USB-C instead. Other than that no complaints.

Great sound quality and amazing bass for the size. Battery lasts around the 8 hours they say, but in my experience I’ve gotten a little longer. No real EQ or app support, however you can apple some preset EQ modes that change the amount of bass and treble. All around a great product and highly recommended.

This seller has a 67% rating according to Amazon and the shock in the support members voice made me worry that this price was too good to be true. Based off the reaction the support member had when he slowly said “67% wow that’s not good!”, needless to say, that had me worried that this was going to be a scam. Fortunately for me, it was not. The reason I questioned it in the first place is because the seller tracking info on Amazon showed the package was picked up by the shipping company, but when I searched the tracking information on the shippers website it showed that the package was never received. 5 days later, and after the support team reached out to the seller, my package was sent and I received it today. I am extremely happy with the sound quality! It had an elegant design with room filling sound. Thank you for not being a scam!

I have the Go+Play 3 and the version before this one. Both are excellent and very enjoyable. The things I like about the current version are the deep low bass thanks to the down firing sub. Good midrange and smooth highs. The sound is excellent for most music but the bass can get too heavy for me on some heavy bass tracks. That's where being able to adjust the highs and lows with the built in EQ is really nice. The Go+Play 2 is also an excellent speaker with not as much deep bass but a more sparkling high end. Nice wide soundstage and very sweet sounding. On some tracks it can get a bit shrill but overall just a great sound. It's lighter and a bit smaller too. Both are excellent and I'm glad I have them both.

Absolutely awesome speaker.

Suena excelente la recomiendo ampliamente

Som de altíssima qualidade. O greves e agudos são maravilhosos.

Amei o som

I have many sound products including Bose. I saw this one and I decided to purchase it and add it to my collection because I have huge expectation for this brand and I was not disappointed. The sound is great and clear as if the singer is singing right beside you. To be honest the price must be higher than the current price. The sound is not explosive but it’s amazing. You need to get one too.
