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?

maybe the loose cabinet joints that assists in recreating the sound of live musical instrument adds to the 'mystique'

maybe just good marketing

I never heard a pair that I thought were especially good either, nice but a bit ordinary to me
