Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space taken up by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies. Harman Kardon 6 takes up 10,578.43cm³, it is important to know the space that the speaker occupies just so as to ensure that it will fit with ease into the available space next to your other gadgets. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4's volume is 11,528.66cm³ meaning it
requires more space than the Harman Kardon 6 by cm³
We consider a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to move with.
A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4, at 2,060g
is lighter than the Harman Kardon 6 with a difference g. 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 often, then you should try to purchase a lighter soundbar.
The height represents the vertical dimension of a device, Harman Kardon 6 has a height of 284mm. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4, at 260mm
is shorter than the Harman Kardon 6 by -24mm
This represents the horizontal dimension of a device, Harman Kardon 6 has a width of 291mm. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4, at 278mm
is smaller in width than the Harman Kardon 6 by -13mm
The thickness (or depth) of Harman Kardon 6 is 128mm, to know the thickness of the speaker you divide its volume(space occupied) by the surface area( length by width)
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 has a thickness of 159.5mm,
meaning that it is thicker than the Harman Kardon 6 with a difference 31.5mm
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone.
Harman Kardon 6 driver unit is 120mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 driver unit is 20mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Harman Kardon 6 by 100mm
, 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 it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they produce 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, Harman Kardon 6 has 2 only. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 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 4 and Harman Kardon 6 both have a passive radiator
The signal-to-noise ratio is a measure that compares the meaningful sound a speaker produces to the level of noise produced by internal components of that speaker, the higher the number the less perceived noise. Harman Kardon 6 has an audio signal level of 80 dB higher than the level of noise. The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4, at 80dB
has the same audio signal as the Harman Kardon 6.
Low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on the way through. Harman Kardon 6's lowest frequency is at 50Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4's lowest frequency is at 50Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal bass
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.
Harman Kardon 6's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4'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. Harman Kardon 6's battery life is 8 hours
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4'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 5 hours to fully charge the Harman Kardon 6'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 4 takes 5 hours to fully charge the battery
Harman Kardon 6 has a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the device has a low battery.
The battery indicator lights show the charging status of your speaker. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 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. Harman Kardon 6 can be used wirelessly, wireless devices allow users more freedom of movement.
An auxiliary input allows you to play other audio sources by connecting them through a simple audio connection like a 3.5mm jack
Bluetooth is a wireless technology that allows you to easily transfer data between different devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and computers. Both the Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 and the Harman Kardon 6 have Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Harman Kardon 6 has a v4.2
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 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 Harman Kardon 6 can connect at a 10meters distance via Bluetooth or infrared to another device.
The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 can connect at a 10meters distance via Bluetooth
You can use your smartphone as a remote control for the device through a dedicated app. Through this, you can alter settings, unlock features, and get real-time updates so you can always listen to your music the best way you see fit. You can use your voice to control key functions of the Harman Kardon 6 and you can easily access it without pushing any button but just giving it voice commands.
The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 supports this feature, it has voice commands. A built-in FM radio tuner allows you to listen to most of the live-broadcasted FM radio stations without using the internet. There is a control panel on the Harman Kardon 6 body, so you can easily access the volume control or remote without having to interact with a cable or another device it's connected to.
The Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 too have a control panel on them.
