I have stayed away from rear ported speakers in the past only because adequate space was a concern. Given unlimited space to play with they often sound superior (to me) unless were talking certain TL's or acoustic suspension. I am a fanboy of both manufacturers. I have listened to Harbeth partnered with high quality Luxman and it was among the best I've ever heard. Detail and naturalism are two words I would use to best describe there partnership.
need your advice on speakers and CD players
Hi audiopeople! I'm almost ready to buy a system and would need your advice. I have a room that is 12 x 20 feet with an 8 1/2 foot ceiling. I listen to acoustic jazz, vocals, Brazilian, African, R&B, and classic rock. I will be sitting about 9 feet from the speakers, which will be about 2 feet from the rear wall.
I love the Harbeth M 30.1. I also really like the Dynaudio Confidence C1, but I'm concerned about the rear porting, and think the Harbeths sound more natural -- any thoughts?
I'm going to get the Luxman 507 ux integrated, and either the Luxman CD-05 or CD-06 CD player. Has anybody out there listened to both? Is the CD-06 worth 4K more?
I'm planning on using Audience 24SE cables. Your thoughts are most appreciated.
