I have only heard the quatros and 30.1 at RMAF. Given the obvious bandwidth difference and lack of time listening not a great comparison, but I'll throw it out there. In that demo the quatros were great except for a lower midrange suckout that made them sound dry. My take is that they were otherwise neutral sounding. I agree not spectacular, but "spectacular" at that price point is probably not going to end well.
Super pleasant, Harbeth is warmer, and I want to remember more rolled off. It is more casual in sound and setup than Vandersteen. Given the upcharge to purchase in the States (there was a thread on this) as much as I do like Harbeth, its not a very good value and I personally would not consider it to carry my main system.
