Spendor D9.2 vs. Harbeth super hl5 plus xd + REL Stentor III vs. Spendor Classic 100?


I am thinking of purchasing one of the following:

1). Harbeth SHL5 plus XD + REL Stentor III Reference Subwoofer due to lack of bass and low octave in bass.

2). Spendor Classic 100 - The bass is a bit noticeable and aggressive. 

3). Spendor D9.2.

My living room where the system will stand is: 5.5 meters x 8 meters, a standard ceiling of 2.7 meters and the entire construction is a 20 cm block. From the living room comes a 25 meters kitchen. The speakers I choose can stand up to about 1 meter from the front wall.

Anyone who has heard of at least 2 of them or a previous generation and can have an opinion on a comparison between them?

Thank you very much for your help.

@alexberger It was discovered that the bright sounds for Spendor comes at the hands of their previous incompetent distributor who would take brand new speakers to shows without breaking in. I speak from experience that the Spendor D series is neither scratchy or bright. They are fast and transparent though, so if there is a single cable that is subpar in your system, it will tell you.
Helio everyone,

Thanks to everyone who answered I really appreciate it.

I would love to hear the opinions of those who have heard or those who have purchased the Spendor Classic 100?

Same as Piega COAX 711?
I have seen so many comments from owners of the spendor D series that the treble is not up to the task.
Ive heard the spendor D7 and I did find them too bright for me.

id go for harbeth 40.2 but do try to demo against spendor sp100 and report back
