Harbeth Experts


I'm kind of puzzled by the Harbeth speaker line.
They offer 4 speakers that appear to be roughly the same size and price.
How do the Monitor 30, Super HL5, Compact 7ES and LS 3/5A differ?
Which is the "standout" of the line sonically?

I have owned the Monitor 30 and Compact 7es2. As well as the HL-P3es, which I still own. It is the replacement for LS 3/5a. I use these in my very small room, 10' X 12'.
I find them best in there because of sound/size for the room.
I liked the Compact 7 best sonically, but they are not compact by any means. They dominated the room.
The Monitor 30 was somewhere in between, but not my favorite. The Compact and P3es both have a metal tweeter, which gives more detail IMO.
Hope this helps.
