De harman kardon go + play 3 ziet er niet alleen fantastisch uit met een verfijnd uiterlijk, hij klinkt hij ook nog eens geweldig door zijn grote vermogen en het heldere drieweg stereogeluid. 🎵🎶 Bov
The €245 asking price for this used Harman Kardon Go Play is ambitious, sitting well above the median of €96 and the 75th percentile of €157 from your database’s 12 recent EUR listings. At €245, it exceeds the 75th percentile by €88, making it a clear overprice compared to typical used market values for this model in EUR. While external data shows used prices around €135–€140, your ground truth numbers must anchor the verdict: this is not a bargain, but a premium listing that demands strong justification.
That said, the Go Play remains a well-regarded portable Bluetooth speaker known for its distinctive Harman Kardon sound, iconic design, and 8-hour battery life with USB charging for phones. If this unit is original-owner condition, includes all accessories, and is in pristine shape, it could offer meaningful upside in timing or rarity. However, given the price is above median and condition is unspecified, buyers should verify battery health, speaker integrity, and included accessories before committing—this is a cautious opportunity, not a guaranteed win.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Harman Kardon traces its origins to 1953, when Dr. Sidney Harman and Bernard Kardon, both engineers frustrated with conservative audio manufacturing at the David Bogen Company, invested $5,000 each to launch their venture in Westbury, New York. Their debut product, the Festival D1000, became the world's first compact AM/FM hi-fi receiver, blending breakthrough technology with sleek design to make high-fidelity sound accessible beyond technical enthusiasts. Pioneering innovations like the 1958 Festival TA230 stereo receiver, the 1959 Citation II ultra-wide bandwidth tube amplifier, and the 1970 CAD5 hi-fi cassette recorder with Dolby noise reduction cemented their legacy in simplifying premium audio for the home.
The brand focuses on integrated receivers, amplifiers, tuners, and speakers that emphasize performance, reliability, and elegant industrial design. Over decades, it expanded into home theater systems and automotive audio, powering systems in vehicles from Land Rover and BMW to Volvo and Polestar. While not delving into turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, Harman Kardon prioritizes cohesive hi-fi components that deliver warm, detailed sound without unnecessary complexity.
Harman Kardon holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, renowned among knowledgeable buyers for its enduring quality and value rather than ultra-high-end exotica or vintage collector status. Now part of Harman International, it appeals to discerning listeners seeking dependable, stylish gear that echoes its innovative heritage without commanding boutique premiums.
