The Onyx Studio 8 is a large portable Bluetooth speaker that stands out for rich sound, strong bass, and a stylish design, with several comparisons putting it near much pricier speakers. It works well as a TV or apartment speaker, and pairing two units can create a wider stereo setup. The main drawbacks are its size and weight, limited portability, and battery life that can land around 6 hours or less. Pairing two speakers also has quirks, since the stereo link may need to be reactivated after power cycles or Bluetooth reconnects. A solid pick if you want big sound more than grab and go convenience.

Common Questions (5)

  • Battery life is reported around 6 to 8 hours, with about 6 hours at 80% volume and as little as roughly 2 hours when used on battery in some setups. It is often kept plugged in for best results, and the battery can reportedly be replaced by the user.

  • It is portable in the sense that it has a built-in handle, but it is also described as big and heavy. Several comments compare its portability to carrying a large exercise ball, so it is better suited to moving room-to-room than tossing in a bag.

  • Yes. Two Onyx Studio 8 speakers can be wirelessly paired for a wider stereo soundstage, and the pairing is reported to be quick. The setup only supports two same-series speakers at a time, so it is not a multi-speaker mesh system.

  • Yes. It can be used as a main TV speaker over 3.5mm, and one unit has been reported to replace a soundbar while filling a room with deep bass. A 3.5mm splitter can also be used to run left and right channels from a TV for an apartment setup.

  • It is not a waterproof beach speaker, so it is a poor choice for beach use. It is better suited to indoor listening or covered areas where it will not be exposed to sand or water.

I have an Onyx 2 and 4, use them almost every day and they're fantastic especially at this price point. You can also link multiple together throughout your house if you want a budget home theater system.

lol you really believe MSRP? Harman Kardon makes great speakers, but their model is to inflate MSRP so things look like a great deal. I guess it works on suckers like you.You get what you deserve for trying to buy these all up and scalp them :p
Looks like the slickdeals inside joke flew right over your head. 😂
