  • PositiveGoogle Home and Assistant integrated
  • PositiveChromecast and AirPlay
  • PositiveColour display and presets
  • NegativeMissing interfaces (LAN, Cinch, ...)

With a rich bass and a balanced sound, the Harman Kardon Citation MultiBeam 700 currently offers the best sound in its price class in the test. It achieves this even without a separate subwoofer or surround system. We also like the textile look and the extensive Wi-Fi functions such as Google Assistant, Google Home, AirPlay or Chromecast...

  • NegativeNo DTS decoder
  • NegativeLowly pronounced surround backdrop

In the price range up to 500 euros, Harman Kardon's "Multibeam 700" is one of the top representatives of its guild. In addition to high-quality workmanship, many streaming options and convenient operation, the sound is also convincing, even if you have to do without real surround sound.
