| Pass Labs INT-25 Integrated amp paired with Harbeth 30.2 XD speakers I'm currently using a Luxman L-505UX II integrated with nice results but I'm interested in keeping things simple, like the Pass INT-25 with it's few analog only inputs and nothing else like pre-outs, digital ins, phono ins, etc. I play CD's only a... | |

| What solid state power amp are you using with your Harbeth Super HL5+ speakers? hleeid,My room dimensions are: 18.7 ft. X 13.3 ft. The speakers are along the longer side. | |
| What solid state power amp are you using with your Harbeth Super HL5+ speakers? twoleftears,I don't know. I just assumed that turning up the volume too high (midway and above) gets that much closer to the clipping point of the amp rather than having more reserve to handle the harder to drive Harbeth's. On the other hand, I ma... | |
| What solid state power amp are you using with your Harbeth Super HL5+ speakers? big_gregjjss49,I have to turn up the volume of my CJ CA-150 to almost half way to get to the level that I enjoy and it is not real loud. A lower output source can force me to put the volume slightly over half way. However, it does sound wonderful ... | |

| Harbeth Super HL5+ vs. Focal Kanta No.2 gerryn,How are your Kanta No.2's coming along? | |
| Harbeth Super HL5 plus Break-in avanti1960,I use the Harbeths with the grilles off as I do with all my speakers. I know what you mean when you speak of the warmth of the cabinet. It is something I'm not familiar with because of the bamboo cabinets of my Ascend Sierra towers. As ... | |
| Harbeth Super HL5 plus Break-in Imnop."I don't think they'd ever be my one and only speaker but I do enjoy having them in the rotation"Profound statement! In this crazy hobby where the listener (me) is analytical and can find fault with anything that statement is a wake up call ... | |
| Harbeth Super HL5 plus Break-in avanti1960,I am listening with the grilles off.noromance,I am using Skylan stands, 18" high. They are spiked to carpet and foam attached to concrete floor. My mistake- They are 28" from wall to back of speaker, 40" from wall to front of speaker. | |
| Harbeth Super HL5 plus Break-in avanti1960,You responded to my Spendor D7 vs. Harbeth SLH5+ discussion. Thanks for returning. At right around the 100 hour mark of burn-in with my new Harbeth's I was going to give up and put them up for sale because I wasn't hearing any improveme... | |
| Harbeth Super HL5 plus Break-in noromance,When you say "What's up with the speakers?" do you mean my other posts about the Spendor D9 & Focal Kanta comparisons to the Harbeth 5's or something else? Please clarify.By the way, I am going thru a "thing" trying to find the right... | |
| Speakers that are a great value! Add Ascend Acoustics to Fritz, Salk & Tekton. I own pairs of Fritz Carbon 7's and Ascend Acoustics Sierra Towers. Both sound great for the price. They certainly are not overpriced for the value you get. Selling direct to customer will keep the... | |
| Harbeth Super HL5+ vs. Focal Kanta No.2 I decided to cancel the order for the Focal Kanta No. 2. I'm not sure in what direction I want to go. The Devore Fidelity Gibbon X (or other Devore models) looks interesting but the $$$$$. WOW!! May be tough to afford even a used mint pair!! | |
| Harbeth Super HL5+ vs. Focal Kanta No.2 prof2,I forgot, what amp did you hear the Kanta 2's thru? |
