If you want a warm sounding bookshelf speaker the Spendor A1 or 4/5 should fit the bill. The Harbeth P3ESR is a tad brighter ( metal tweeter ). I have owned all of them. I like a brighter speaker and the Harbeths are the ones that I prefer. It’s all a matter of your taste! BTW, if you want a real bargain you can get Falcons direct from the manufacturer. I just sold a pair of IMF-100s . They are the true BBC type of speaker. Check out the Q7!
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?
