I owned the 5's and it always was enjoyable. It drew you into the music. Someday I will own a Harbeth again.
Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following
Let me start by saying I'm not here to bash Harbeth speakers.I have actually listened to 3 different pairs before I bought my current speakers.I thought they sounded good but I don't understand all the hype around them.They seem to have a cult following like Linn and Naim. What is creating the cult following among Harbeth speakers?
