Most of the time a genuine quality system is a little bit heavier than average quality products though If you want to change the position of the soundbar after some time, then you should try to purchase a lighter soundbar.
This represents the vertical dimension of a device, DemerBox DB2 has a height of 250mm. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6, at 284mm is longer in height than the DemerBox DB2 by 34mm The width represents the horizontal dimension of a device, DemerBox DB2 has a width of 270mm. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 6, at 291mm is wider than the DemerBox DB2 with a difference 21mm The thickness (or depth) of DemerBox DB2 is 180mm, 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, hence less thicker than the DemerBox DB2 with a difference -52mm DemerBox DB2 has stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
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, DemerBox DB2 has 2 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 DemerBox DB2 both have a passive radiator
The audio output power of a device is based on the number of speakers and their power in watts DemerBox DB2 has 20W, this is the amount of power the speakers can be loaded with "comfortably".
A higher audio output power results in louder, clearer sounds though this is not the sole factor determining the device's loudness. To better understand how loud any speaker can get, there are other features to factor in such as sensitivity, sound pressure, etc. 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.
