| Anyone Using Harbeths with Grilles off? Grilles off for me. Besides the asthetics and badass Anniversary logo, it gives the 40.2a 0.5db boost from the tweeter which I need. Zero impact on bass driver. | |
| JBL 43xx va Harbeth 40.x The JBL is like a Rollercoaster. In your face exhilarating, fun, but rocks your brains and you feel fatigued after riding them for awhile. So depends what you want. If you want serious engaging vocal and musical reproduction that you can listen to... | |
| Seeking advice on Speakers that create an intimate 2 channel listening experience Project complete. (room treatments next) Thanks everyone! Hope the pics come through..https://photos.app.goo.gl/BFAQLGEo4UmknMZm6 | |
| Does the first reflection point actually matter?? Another confusing controversial thread. Seems like the only alternative to avoid all this is to buy acoustic measurement software like from Dayton audio and figure out your room. Then treat it accordingly. | |
| What tube amp for Harbeth 40.1 @dodgealum Thx! 2 channel analog system complete. Now its time for room treatments and tweaks! | |
| What amp to match with Spatial Audio M3 Sapphire open back speakers I understand they pair particularly well with Linear Tube Audio. That's the speaker LTA uses in their shop. | |
| What tube amp for Harbeth 40.1 So I doubled down and traded in my LTA z40 integrated for LTA separates - Microzotl preamp and a pair of ZOTL40 Reference run monoblocks. Getting close to 100 wpc at the 40.2 Annie 6ohm impedance and results are quite apparent, quite spectacular..... | |
| Does the first reflection point actually matter?? I gave GIK and Acoustical Surfaces a dozen pics of my room for recommendations and they each came up with completely contradictory suggestions. GiK was all about absorbers covering as much of the surface area of the walls and ceilings as possible ... | |
| Offer / counter-offer? Audiogon rules Legally, at least in the US, the answer is no. Once you counter, that is an implied rejection of the original offer. Full stop. I can find the UCC cite. | |
| Options for ridding records of static electricity Same massive and annoying static issues with my Rega P10 using their felt mat. I called them about other options and their technician advised me strongly to avoid using after market brands. He said the mat was specifically constructed for that TT ... | |
| What tube amp for Harbeth 40.1 @gte357s Ok all tubes i see. My point was that if you start mixing brands of tubes and SS gear, you have to be extra careful with proper impedance matching. Expensive mistakes happen. | |
| What tube amp for Harbeth 40.1 @gkr7007 Agreed. Mark’s engineering/architecture of Berning’s technology is a sonic marvel amd masterpiece, so much so that I’m going to be running the zotl ref40 as monoblocks controlling my 40.2 A's through the microzotl. @gte357s Why not find a... | |
| What tube amp for Harbeth 40.1 @bassdude Wait you haven't heard the speakers yourself with diff amps? | |
| What tube amp for Harbeth 40.1 @pdhererExactly listen to the OP! And I hated ATC as well. Grating and didn't think I could listen for hours. Magico is the same ol’ tower speaker I spent the last two months demo'img but overpriced nothing special IMO. | |
| What tube amp for Harbeth 40.1 @bassdude Makes perfect sense they would show their speakers with the mega watt amps in a public forum, BUT in a real world situation like your home where one MAY want something smooth, musical and warm, softer non fatiguing.... ALWAYS ALWAYS go f... |
