Which Harbeths? Thanks for sharing the experience @bjesien surely useful. There isn’t much comparison between the C7ES3 XD, M30.2 XD and 30.2 40th AE. Nevertheless, I am aware the C7ES3 XD is noticeably better than the original C7ES3 which sounds warmer and lacks... | |
Furutech PC's? Thanks @audphile1 Watched the video. Interesting. | |
Luxman vs Accuphase for Harbeth 40.3 XD I realize the OP of this thread has settled down with BAT vk3500 and moved to the T+A PA 3100 HV after a while, instead of going with the initial plan of Accuphase and Luxman. As an owner of the Luxman L-590AXII and ex-owner of Harbeth SHL5+, I fi... | |
Luxman vs Accuphase for Harbeth 40.3 XD @bataras those are some serious overkill amps for the Harbeth P3ESR in my opinion. Anyway to each his own. If I"m not mistaken, you are using your McIntosh C2700 with the Accuphase and Luxman power amps so it's not exactly an accurate representati... | |
Which Harbeths? Having heard harbeth 30.2 40th anniversary and Graham Audio ls 5/9 side by side for a few months, I can say that I love the BBC sound and I really love the Graham Audio execution better. If you like the treble of the 30.2, you don’t know what you... | |
Furutech PC's? FWIW it’s not all about Furutech as I use a mix of Acrolink power cords and interconnects, Wireworld digital cable and Chord speaker cables in my system, apart from Furutech power cords. It’s the combination that matters. | |
Furutech PC's? Thanks @audphile1 for the thoughts, appreciated. I can’t refute your experience on the weird coloration with Furutech power cords or speaker cables but have read some of these comments several years ago on whatsbestforum I believe. I have no probl... | |
Furutech PC's? @audphile1 how do you find the Furutech Dss-4.1 speaker cables with totl furutech plugs? I am actually done with the system but have always admired these speaker cables. The only hindrance that is keeping me away from the Dss-4.1 is the high price. | |
Furutech PC's? I have the Furutech DPS4.1 with FI-50 NCF (R) plugs and can recommend these. The plugs are more important than the cable and I don't use anything lesser than the FI-50 NCF (R) on the DPS4.1. Initially I bought the DPS4.1 which came with older and ... | |
Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… You may explore Graham. I switched from Harbeth SHL5+ to Graham LS5/9. Another option is Rogers but they have limited models. | |
!!! Harbeth M30.2 Xd,NOT Just Pipe & Slippers Speakers!!! Good to know. I’ve been a long time Harbeth user for more than a decade. Owned the SHL5 and SHL5+ for a long time, listened to all the M30 iterations from the original M30 to M30.1 and 30.2 40th Anniversary. The latter sounds best while the older ... | |
Speakers for Gryphon Diablo 120 Had a good offer on the new Signature model, but chose to go the BBC line of speakers with an other designer I admire a lot, mr Derek Hughes and his Graham Audio LS 5/9. The Graham speakers are an endgame speaker I lived with the Harbeth SH... | |
Luxman 509x or Simaudio 600iV2 with mágico A3. I had 590 before and wasn't my cup of tea. Is it the 590AX or 590AXII? The latter is reported to be noticeably better. | |
Using two Luxman integrated amplifiers together Thanks @maholl50 for the response. Appreciated. | |
Using two Luxman integrated amplifiers together May I ask how does the Harbeth M30.2 XD compare to the Dynaudio Heritage Special? Which one do you like better? I would expect the Heritage Specials to have better bass and dynamics than the 30.2 XD but which one has a higher involvement factor wi... |
