I initially subscribed to Stereophile in 1971 and recall that J Gordon listed some model Hartley speakers in his recommendation list during the '70s. I also remember reading about the HQD system but never got to hear it. The Decca tweeter was a ribbon designed by Stanley Kelly. A friend of mine at the time who emigrated to the US had been friends with Kelly.
Within the past 10 years or so I saw a reference that Hartley was again in business but I never heard any more about that. I do remember that more than one customer mounted the Hartley woofers in the floor rather than build appropriate sized cabinets. ;^)
