Harman Kardon’s Omni wireless speakers make multi-room audio simple

IFA 2025
This story is part of our coverage of IFA Berlin 2025

We visited Harman Kardon’s exhibit at IFA 2014 to get our eyes and ears on the Omni wireless speakers the company announced at the show earlier this week. Given how much we enjoyed H/K’s Onyx Studio wireless speaker, we expected great things. We’re glad to report that we were not disappointed.

 

Aside from sounding very good, the Omni multi-room system’s app offers the sort of drag-and-drop simplicity we’ve come to expect. After all, if you’re going to try to beat Sonos at its own game, you best put some effort into making your system as easy to use as possible.
