My dealer also said the original is better, and this include the C7ES3 and SHL5+. The XD version is more expensive but has a different sound. Only you can judge whether the sound is better by comparing both in the same room.
Everybody has there opinions..there eill be some who dont like this and that. Its up to the person. Most people, do like the anniv which is now the xd version. The sales have been better with xd version. 
Um, the distrubitor told me the xd is a better selling speaker and what MOST wanted in an upgrade. Have to find another speaker then if you want new, the older version has very few left.

The Harbeth’s development team has, once again, redefined what is possible from this use anywhere loudspeaker. The completed redesign maximizes the performance potential of the Harbeth exclusive RADIAL2TM Cone Technology, the evolved P3ESR XD delivers breathtaking transparency, accurate bass and dynamic integration across the audio spectrum.

 

Arguably one of the most advanced speakers in its class, this mini monitor allows you to discover those transparent moments where you feel like you’re breathing the same air as the musicians on the recording.

 

The completed redesign is one of the most ground-breaking speakers ever released by Harbeth.
