Review on Smart speaker Harman/Kardon Citation 500, gray by Micha Niemczyk ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The right product for me, the price suited me.

A good column, and once you factor in the discounts, you can have it for about 21 thousand dollars right now. However, with an initial investment of approximately 40,000 dollars, this is not a good choice. Making preparations to purchase a second one.

Pros
  • 1. The sound is not terrible; nevertheless, it is only enjoyable up to a volume level of 70%; after that, only the high frequencies grow, and a cacophony of high frequencies is produced. 2. Stylish things are attractive. 3. With a power output of 200W, this speaker has one of the greatest rates of performance among wireless speakers. It is true that these are not authentic Soviet 200W, but they are powerful enough to illuminate a small room. I listen in a room with 20kV, and although the sound is adequate, I already have the desire to add one more of the same speaker to the stereo pair in order to boost the output power. 4. The sound quality of Airplay is significantly higher than that of Bluetooth alone. Noticably straight and strong, and before that I had always believed that newer Bluetooth codecs had attained high quality; however, it turned out that this was not the case.
Cons
  • 1. There is no language with the year 2022 in it, and there probably never will be. 2. Harman does not provide any kind of technical help. 3. Airplay is not functioning properly across all services with the exception of Apple Music. (I can't explain why this is the case, but it simply is.) If I move from one room to another, it is disrupted, or there may simply be a twitching of the sound, particularly in Music. In the meantime, there have been no reported issues with Apple Music. The sound quality of the speaker was evaluated using a variety of services, including Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and Deezer. Plays wonderfully across the board, with the exception of Music. As a direct consequence of my intense desire to work in the music industry (due to the environment), a significant number of the tracks have extremely high frequency ranges. Because of this, I had no choice but to continue listening to Apple Music.
