Recently, the Roar 2 was having problems keeping the Bluetooth connection stable and with its inbuilt battery (something I didn’t care much as I had it connected to power almost always), so I decided to buy a new speaker – I wanted to have one less cable so it had to be Bluetooth, I cared little about the portability as I was not planning to carry it anywhere.Īfter much searching, getting social media suggestions from friends, and listening to various speakers in shops I selected Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 4 – The Croma store where I tried the speaker and had a super helpful salesman, unfortunately, didn’t have the colour (White) I wanted in stock, so I decided to buy it online at Amazon India for Rs.13,000 (USD 180). Over the years, the speakers I have used with my PC or listened to music at work has been Creative Desktop Speakers (1990s), Bose Wave Player (2005), Altec Lansing for Zune (2007), Altec Lansing’s BXR1221 Desktop Speakers (2010) – this was an awesome sounding system, I loved it, JBL Flip 2 (2014), and lastly settling with Creative Sound Blaster Roar 2 (2015) – for it’s compact size, the speaker produced good and satisfying sound. Hence, I feel it is important to connect desktop speakers to the laptop before I do anything else with the machine. I dislike the tiny built-in speakers present in almost all laptops including the Mac.
