The onyx studio 7 has alot of bass and rumble even with low volumes great for apartments (2 tweeters) but lacks features(only aux port) and is the size of a water gallon at least it has a handle

Knowing both well, and considering that in Chile you find onix for about 120 dollars and luna for 80, on sale, I lean towards luna. I sold onyx to have 2 lunas and it is more detailed, less bass but sufficient. Onyx sounds good only at +60 volume Onyx more power and bass, moon more clarity in sound... If you listen to Onyx loudly, but 2 Luna surpasses it, if you listen to 40 or 50% Luna more detail...

I got deals for the Go + Play 3 on Black Friday 2024 ($130.00 after tax and shipping) and another deal around late October 2025 ($170.00 after tax and shipping) both were from HK store. Also snagged an Onyx Studio 7 ($70.00 after tax and shipping) around November 11 2024. Both great speakers but the Onyx 7 is considered one of the weaker of that line. The Go+ Play is probably the best BT I've ever owned.

or waterproof. I love my Go+Play 3, and my Onyx Studio 7 & 8, but same thing: 8hr battery, heavy, and not waterproof
