Harbeth M40.1 vs. M40.2 vs. M40.2 Anniversary Edition vs. M40.3XD


Anyone have experience with the multiple iterations of big Harbeths? I'm thinking about replacing my Wilson Sasha W/P with something leaner on the top end and overall more pleasant. I like to listen at 90dB+ occasionally and want impact without fatigue. From what I've gathered, some people have found the Anniversary and XD versions a bit too analytical, less of that relaxed Harbeth sound.

Amps are ARC Ref 160M's, PrimaLuna EVO 400 preamp, Holo May KTE DAC

For context, I've lived with and LOVED Harbeth P3ESR's in another system for years. Love the midrange beauty, they've always just sounded right to me.

.......excellent suggestion noromeance as the Spendor 200's would be an excellent choice. I also think Spendor has made some recent changes to the original version of the Spendor 200.
