JA Pulsars vs Harbeth 30.2

Well still investigating different speakers. In the used world these speakers are similarly priced and both have great reviews.  Does anybody in the Audubon family have familiarity with these two speakers. Which one would you recommend and why.  I have a dedicated room approx 20x 15 with no special acoustic treatments. Wall to wall carpet. I mostly stream with bluesound node 2. I have a Hegel 390 Integrated amp and project turntable and Yamaha CD player both around $300 - $400.  Mostly listen to blues, folk and rock. Some classical too.

look forward to hearing from you

I am going to pass on the bee farm. Way to much buzzing noise in the background.

You should get some floorstanding speakers if MORE bass is one of the goals. 2 subwoofers with the speakers you own might also solve what you think you are missing.

I finally bought the C7 Harbeth and really enjoy the sound and dimensionality with the Naim Supernait 3. I got burned out with chasing presence and hearing brightness, etc. The Harbeth is somehow very present without brightness. These are keepers. For a while anyway.

@bjesien  you've had a lot of good speakers.  Are the Harbeth's now your primary speakers?   What version C7 did you buy?
