Harbeth 40 speakers


R. Green of TAS is forever raving about these speakers.If the are as good as he claims why are there so few dealers,and when they come up for sale on Audiogon they really don't sell that fast. Has anyone heard them and I would like your opinion.

They are great, indeed. the 40s are fairly big, personally I like the 30s and Super HL5 better (space-wise.). Harbeth recently changed US distributors, so availability was spotty until now. They made their re-entrance at this most recent CES, I was helping them out and have to say the sound was better than I would have thought possible in a hotel room. Fidelis in NH is the new distributor, I think they have maybe a dozen dealers or so? Check with Walter Swanbon if you want a pair: info@fidelisav.com or 603-894-1306.

They sound way better than they look like they have a right to.... what with big boxes, not slim baffles, pro-style construction, etc. They are worth a listen, for sure.
