Which Harbeth?
My 5 cents with Harbeth SHL5 is that room treatment on bass a must as I found they will relflect the room's acoustic more than other speakers. 
Piano Notes On Harbeth SHL 5
I found my Shl5 very sensitive to speaker placement and room treatment as it creates a lot of mid bass around the room. I was having fat undefined bass and too warm sounding mids before room treatment. After placing one ceiling trap and 2 multi-tr... 
Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?
Conrad Johnson Premier 350 for SS! I sold mine years ago but needed to buy it back even I already have two other tube amps! Lucky I found one as it does not come too often in 2nd hands anymore! 
Harbeth C7 speaker grill
I tried using all sorts of tools but at the end, fingers worked for me too. Do it a little at a time by digging in to the corners and after a while, you will find one corner starts to get loose, usually at the bottom, dig the other bottom corner o... 
ProAc D40??
At $4000, the 140 is not a bad speaker which still provides some ProAc magic but the D40 is $12,000 retail so it's up against a lot of very good speakers. People in the past buy ProAc for it's magical voicing but the making is only worth 1/10th of... 
ProAc D40??
I guest no one has been using them them yet?? Anyone knows the retail asking price? 
TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza??
Thanks to everyone who has inputed to this thread. Especially to you, Dgad! After our long discussion with Dgad, I have also asked the opinion from my dealer who does TW and Davinci. His analysis is similar to Dgad’s that the Davinci has better va... 
TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza??
I just want to clarify that the arms comes with the table and DaVinci is actually $1000 more. The reason is that the TW table and 10.5 arm will be brand new where the DaVinci is two years old. 
TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza??
This is a great thread as subjective and objective opinions have been freely expressed. Is this what our hobby of HIFI is all about, passion plus practise? It seems the TW10.5 wins over on the practical side. I guess it is like the perfect ‘Swiss ... 
ProAc d40r anyone?
Cheers,I have a listen to the D40R at the dealer but that pair has only 10 -20 hours on it. Seems a bit shut-in in the highs but more seemless top to bottom than the D38R. The ribbon may need time to open up. Sound better with jazz/pops than class... 
ProAc d40r anyone?
No one have a listen to D40??? 
Amplification for Wilson Watt Puppy 7s or 8s

Rogue m180 driving Wilson wp7
Hey, That is wht I have been thinking too! I also like to try manley lab as well! Please respond. 
JBL K2 anyone?
Anyone listened to K24600s? How good are theY? 
Manley or Rogue?
Wow! I guess speaker matching is not that important as both have simular handling specs. I have Harbeth HL5 but thinking of getting big JBL k2 4600 in the future. How are their reliability factor? Anyone compared by listening?
