Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space taken up by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product fills. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 takes up 5,868.45cm³, it is important to know the space that the speaker takes up just so as to ensure that it will fit with ease into the available space next to your other gadgets. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6's volume is 10,578.43cm³ meaning it
occupies lesser space than the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 by cm³
We take in account a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.
A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6, at 2,940g
weigh more than the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 by g. Commonly a genuine quality system is a little bit heavier than average quality products though If you will need to change the position of the soundbar often, then you should aim to purchase a lighter soundbar.
The height represents the vertical dimension of a device, Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has a height of 230mm. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6, at 284mm
is longer in height than the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 by 54mm
The width represents the horizontal dimension of a device, Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has a width of 135mm. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6, at 291mm
is wider than the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 with a difference 156mm
The thickness (or depth) of Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 is 189mm, to know the thickness of the speaker you divide its volume(space occupied) by the surface area( length by width)
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 has a thickness of 128mm,
meaning that it is less thicker than the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 by -61mm
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 driver unit is 140mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 driver unit is 120mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 by 20mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty reproducing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better sound. A speaker driver is an individual transducer that converts electrical energy to sound waves. Drivers come in different sizes and modes, but generally, you'll find three types: tweeter driver, which handles the high-frequency treble range (above 2,000 Hz), and midrange driver: which handles the midrange frequencies (200 Hz to 2,000 Hz). Woofer driver: handles the low-frequency bass range (below 200 Hz).
Based on the frequencies they handle more drivers may result in better sound quality, Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has 4 only.
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 has 2 only
A passive radiator is a type of driver in speakers that can get extra power and resonance from a speaker system, usually used in smaller speaker systems. This radiator is called passive because it is not powered by electricity but by air pressure found in speaker cones.
The sound vibrations produced by a passive radiator depend on its mass and the size of its enclosure.
It is usually used in combination with a woofer to produce deep, resonant tones that would normally be produced by speakers in large boxes powered by AC. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 and Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 both have a passive radiator
Low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20's lowest frequency is at 37Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6's lowest frequency is at 50Hz, this means that
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 got a juicier bass than the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20
High frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device reproduces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal treble
Your speaker's battery life will reduce over time while in use, the battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20's battery life is 37 hours
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6's battery life is 8 hours. Each time you recharge your device, it gets a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first.
But over a few years, you may find that your speaker, no longer plays for long like it used to. It takes 3 hours to fully charge the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using it for the first time or when they have been unused for extended periods.
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 takes 5 hours to fully charge the battery
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the device has a low battery. The battery indicator lights indicate the charging status of your speaker. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 too has a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you to determine the charging state of your speaker, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
The amount of power a speaker uses depends on the loudness of the audio being played, its sensitivity, and the amplifier's volume. Operating power consumption is how much power the device consumes when it's in use. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20's operating power consumption is 30W
Also known as a device's energy-saving mode, the power consumption in standby mode measures the amount of power the device consumes when shut down but still plugged in.
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has a standby mode power consumption of 0.5W
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 can be used wirelessly, wireless devices allow users more freedom of movement. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 also can be used wirelessly
An auxiliary input allows you to play other audio sources by connecting them through a simple audio connection like a 3.5mm jack
Being an industry-standard audio plug, a standard 3.5mm male connector is suitable for use with all MP3 players and computer sound cards. This means that it is commonly used in stereo headphones to your phone or connecting your phone to an external amplifier, sound bars, your car radio, etc.
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has this connector giving it a wider range of connectivity with most of the sound devices out there. All plugs have at least a tip and sleeve with the number of rings that stand as a differentiating factor. Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has a v4.2
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 has a Bluetooth version of v4.2. Newer versions provide faster data transfers. Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology standard that is used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short distances.
The Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 can connect at a 10meters distance via Bluetooth or infrared to another device. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6 can connect at a 10meters distance via Bluetooth
Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 supports USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power on a single cable. The USB-C plug is now part and parcel of most current laptops, phones, and tablets, it features reversible plug orientation and cable direction.
