Harbeth 30.1 or legacy calibre

If you want to keep the clarity and musicality but also want more volume and punch, why not add two (or even four) subwoofers? Alternatively, get the Super HL5+, or look into your amplifier: is it powerful enough? Alan Shaw himself believes in big and powerful solid state amplifiers.

Legacy is not imported here, so I cannot comment on their products. However, I htink two things need to be added about Harbeth speakers. They have a very flat frequency response and are not just midrange speakers, even if their midrange is to die for. Second, that midrange quality originates in their own advanced Radial cone technology, with their proprietary cone material that was developed in a UK government funded scientific research project.
I have Harbeth P3ESRs in my desktop system, and all I can say is that they are the only speakers that I have heard that come close to the clarity of my Quad electrostats, and are similarly free from that feeling that you are just listening to sound from wooden boxes.
