Are Harbeth the only warm and euphonic speakers in town ?

I've looked far and wide especially for bookshelf speakers with prominent full mids and a lush sound. So far the only name that comes up is harbeth. Maybe Sonus faber but are there other speakers that have similar tone but are made by a different company?

I strongly rec Elac or Epos bookshelf speakers but the need power esp

Elac

bottom line- a good recording makes the gear sing

Ok guys grab this one!

I’ve been down the expensive speakers road many many times and don’t regret it at all- when I relocated to the tropics I never thought I would have to give up

tube equipment but I did! Also I gave up the large speakers bec my 12’x14’ cave

was what I wound up with-I should have thought this one out but I did not. 
 

in Sum I purchased a pair of Andrew Jones Elac 2.0/b 6.2 and a SS integrated amp

And I lucked out big time! The resonance of the room and the speaker output is a great marriage . Also got a pair of EPOS Epic 2- unreal!

And all at the a fraction of the expense of past gear!

The integrated amp is Rotel A-14- best kept secret - versatile great sound stage programmable auto shut off  and it works!

this is a long way financially from my Boulder equipment to mentions few !
