More music, more flexibility, more fun . With this feature, any app (for example iTunes Radio or Spotify) is part of the Harman Kardon whole home audio experience. Use Bluetooth and the Omni 20 will re-stream your music to other speakers in the house.
Group speakers together for an immersive same room wireless sound experience. A pair of Harman Kardon Omni 20 can be used as part of a stereo or multi-channel speaker system.
Connect your audio device or anything via Bluetooth or a 3.5mm mini-jack to your Omni 20 and the speaker will automatically translate the signal to Wi-Fi and stream its sound all over your house for a truly flexible whole home audio experience.
You can connect an OMNI 10 or Omni 20 to your TV set, and use them listen to the TV sound or movie soundtrack. You should use a wired connection from either a fixed line-level output on the TV, or from the TV’s headphone output.
It is perfectly possible to add a second OMNI speaker for stereo use, through additional wiring, via signal splitters also known as Y-splitters. When re-streaming the TV sound wirelessly from one Omni speaker to other Omni speakers in the house, the audio signal will be slightly delayed compared to the video signal.

No, stereo pairs must be two of the same type of speaker. For example, two Omni 10 or two Omni 10+ speakers will work, but not one Omni 10 and one Omni 10+.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

Streaming via Bluetooth or direct aux in connection are supported without the HK Controller app. For OMNI+ devices that you already have placed in a room, they are capable of using either Spotify Connect or Chromecast built-in without the need of using the HK Controller app. Use only the HK Controller app for setting up any OMNI+ devices you may have.Was this helpful?

Make sure you disable AP/Client isolation on your Access Point / Extender and that Multicast forwarding is not disabled between the W-Fi networks. However, we cannot guarantee than streaming will work flawless as Extender networks are tricky and can cause many issues. Always use a 5GHz Wi-Fi network extender for best results.Was this helpful?

Unfortunately, some Huawei phones are not able to stream music from the HK Controller app to 1st generation Omni speakers. However, the new Omni 10+, 20+, and 50+ have fixed this issue, and you will be able to stream music to them using your Huawei phone.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

To have the best possible performance for OMNI+ system we advise to have a dual-band router with a powerful chipset and ram for best Wi-Fi performance. This will not only help our products to perform better and more stable, but your other devices at home will have more power and fewer interruptions. Please also be sure that your home Wi-Fi router has Multicast enabled, as our Omni+ system requires this feature enabled in order to work (same goes for Chromecast devices). Always connect our Omni+ system to 5 GHz Wi-Fi whenever possible to limit the risk of devices being slow or interrupted on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

Yes, they will work together. You can link rooms containing 1st generation Omni speakers with rooms containing 2nd generation Omni speakers and listen to the same music across all of them. Since the 2nd generation has a more powerful processor, we recommend connecting external sources like AUX or Bluetooth to the 2nd generation speakers rather than the 1st generation.Was this helpful?
