I would definitely recommend listening to the Monitor 30's before you buy them. I am a great fan of Harbeth but have heard the M30 on many occasions and it is by far, my least favorite Harbeth speaker. I would suggest a good listening session before you buy. IMHO the Compact 7 and the Super HL5 are much more musical than the M30's. I own the M40's and have owned the SHL5's before. Have you already heard the M30's and liked them?
On the electronics front the LFD Mistral and the Primare i30 are great integrated amps that mate well with the Harbeth's.
Good Luck on your search. Also, you should check out the Harbeth User Forum for more information.
