SoundSticks II encourages consumers to step out of the ordinary speaker world and offers sound in an original and unique package. The system, described as curvy, sleek and sexy, provides consumers with sound that is loud and clear.
SoundSticks II employs a new computer-optimized multi-band parametric equalization and Harman's unique "capacitance touch" control buttons on the right satellite allow for direct access to volume control.
The quality of Harman Kardon's SoundSticks II three-piece
speaker system comes through loud and clear. It can provide high-quality stereo
sound for music, MP3’s, movies and video games – bringing new dimension to your
home entertainment and making the release they provide in your hectic life that
much more fulfilling.
The great thing about this product is simplicity. Its
compatibility provides convenience plus. The mini stereo jack connection allows
you to enjoy high-quality audio from a variety of devices such as digital music
players, computers (all platforms), stereos and portable listening devices. With
your sound deriving from the one VERY compact place, you can clear your
lounge/bedroom of clutter leaving you free for some major head-banging without
the risk of banging your head.

Meanwhile, the touch-control allows the easy increase or
decrease of volume and the SoundSticks II also remembers your last volume
setting.
SoundSticks II employs a new computer-optimized multi-band
parametric equalization to deliver fuller, more accurate sound. Meanwhile, the
powerful subwoofer provides clean low bass to kick start your heart. The treble
and subwoofer level controls are located on the back of the
subwoofer.

Pros: Aesthetically appealing; Good finish
Cons: Sound is ordinary; Too many wires

Are those Harman/Kardon Soundsticks II in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? Ok, maybe that is the wrong analogy as these speakers will not actually fit into a pocket - not even a really big one.
In fact, if we want to play with analogies, think primitive creatures of the ocean as these speakers look more like a prehistoric jellyfish with the subwoofer unit and the little tentacles in the form of wires and satellite speakers. And the blue light makes these speakers also look like a bluebottle, but I am unsure whether the designers had that maritime intention in mind.
But acoustically, well, they are a touch ordinary. Although the HK speakers serve up very clear treble, strong bass, and overall crisp and clean sound and can be pumped up to be extremely loud - whether playing Net radio, CDs or PC music, the sound is quite good but at the same time is not something to write home about either.
In terms of specs that are available, the frequency range is 44Hz – 20 kHz; amplifier output power is 20 Wrms for the subwoofer and 10 Wrms per channel for the satellite speakers and the entire connected unit weighs just under 4 kgs.
And yes, they have very discreet touch-sensitive volume buttons which work very well and I admit, they do look out of this world, but at $330 a pop, if aesthetics is not your gig but are more obsessed with complete and utter perfection in sound, I would certainly not consider them.
However, if you like your speakers to come from the set of Star Trek Generations, and if you are not a total sound perfection Nazi, then they should be well worth considering. In fact, for the vast majority of PC, gaming and small to medium TV users, they would be more or less perfect. Oh, and did I mention how great they look? |

Pros: Small size and space age shape
Cons: really designed for single computer user - not living room
This is almost the idea solution to the audio part of a home entertainment system. While I don't appreciate listening to TV through a sound system, it is a requirement of DVDs. The small foot print of this system, plus the mysterious blue light in the dome, adds a future aesthetic that might not suit every living room but it certainly does mine. While the system was designed for single person use as part of a computer desk/system, it fills up an enitre room with sound quite well. The only downside to this kind of use is the lack of remote control volume. |

Pros: Perfect size, with the best sound!!
Cons: No on/off switch.
I was surprised it was plastic but its great, it looks like my fishtanks! By day it blends in to the loungeroom [which i wish my current surround sound would] but at night stands out with the blue light inside! Perfect size and really light. Best sound system for a unit/apartment!! The only downside is it doesnt have an on/off switch so you have to turn it off at the powerpoint but the blue light reminds you its on. |

The Harmon Kardon SoundSticks II are the best quality mini speakers available on the market - hands down. The sound quality is simply phenomenal, the treble is sweet and the subwoofer produces a rich, deep bass.
The supplied power pack accepts 100-240 V AC - 50-60Hz, so it is useable anywhere.
The pictures shown on the website are slightly deceiving - the speakers are bigger than you would expect, the build quality is excellent. The components feel "weighty", not light and cheap feeling. The transparent plastic is a high quality polycarbonate - they look great and function beautifully.
PROs: Easy to install (plug and go!), great looks, absolutely amazing sound.
CONs: No power switch (always on), no visual indication of volume level.
Digital Home has the best price I've seen for these speakers. Spend the few extra bucks, get ten-fold the quality of sound. |
