The Avantree Harmony 2 is a wireless stereo home speaker system that comes in the form of three speakers, a transmitter, optical and AUX 3.5mm audio cables, power cable for transmitter and 3 charging cables.
The speakers aren’t super unique looking, but that not necessarily a bad thing, not everyone wants to show off their speakers, they are compact enough to fit on a desk, shelf, or bedside table.
The Harmony 2 packs dual 10W drivers and dual bass radiators, which delivers crisp highs, clear mids, and decent amount of bass without distortion, even at higher volumes. While it won’t shake the walls like a full-blown subwoofer, it still delivers a warm, immersive sound that works well for everything from podcasts to action-packed movies. The volumes can be individually adjusted directly on the speakers, there’s a handy hook on the back which allows the speakers to be hung up. The built in battery means you can easily take these outside and handy them off some trees for and outdoors party.
When it comes to connectivity there are a range of options, it supports, Bluetooth 5.0 for stable wireless streaming with minimal lag, AUX input for wired connections, USB port for a flash drive and play music directly and even a MicroSD card slot for those who still love memory cards. When connected to the transmitter to an something like your phone, laptop, or TV via Bluetooth, optical, or AUX, and output audio through all three speakers simultaneously. The range between the speakers and the transmitter is 65 ft (20 m), and the range between the transmitter and the Bluetooth audio source is 15 ft (5 m).
The controls are intuitive, with easy-to-access buttons for volume, playback, and mode selection. There is potential to scale up by connecting up to 100 Harmony 2 add-on speakers to the transmitter while maintaining low latency. Please note that ONLY Harmony 2 add-on speakers are compatible due to private protocol connections. You just need to turn the transmitter and speakers on and they’ll automatically connect, no app or pairing required.
The Avantree Harmony 2 is a low cost, speaker system that delivers clear, immersive sound with multiple connectivity options. Its probably not one for the audiophiles due to the lack of a sub but if you want a portable stereo set up with zero latency then the Avantree Harmony 2 might be worth checking out. RRP £229.99
