| Habeth SHL5 tweeter and supertweeter models I can't imagine the designer not being able to help out with your question if you really need to know the model of the SEAS tweeter, presumably to facilitate a replacement. It's a shame really as Harbeth can always send you a private message or so... | |
| Habeth SHL5 tweeter and supertweeter models Audax has been long discontinued, used in the earlier Harbeth models. | |
| Habeth SHL5 tweeter and supertweeter models Similarly not too sure why they didn't publish your post. Usually they will only censor posts that are not in line with their interest. One possibility I can think of is the variation in the frequency range between the super-tweeter and tweeter. A... | |
| Best Stand for Harbeth 7ES-3 Compact 11-24-11: Pubul57I would go by what Alan uses, recommends - he is such a nudnick about resonance, I would assume stands matter to him and the performance of his speakers.Despite Alan's dogma that all amplifiers sound similar, I have yet to see som... | |
| Best Tube/SS Amps for Harbeth 7ES-3 Don't bother about Alan Shaw's comments on the Harbeth forum if one believes that amplifiers will make a difference. In his mind all amps sound the same. Tube vs SS - a matter of preferenceWhich amp - ditto aboveHow much power for the C7ES3 - this... | |
| Is a 23x16 room too big for B&W 805S bookshelfs? The effects or contribution of a sub in a large space will be relatively small. Setup and sitting arrangement are crucial in this circumstance. Listening distance from speakers preferably not more than 8' or you would lose the scale, enveloping so... | |
| Piano Notes On Harbeth SHL 5 The Krell is a good one(tried an FPB400CX and matching Krell pre with some Harbeths). Not too sure about the Cary tube preamp though. Bass slam can be improved with close attention to speaker placement, even if the SHL5 is in a large listening are... | |
| Piano Notes On Harbeth SHL 5 Although speakers will dictate how piano notes would sound like, factors such as quality of recording and ancillary equipment play a part as well. Piano notes will sound "fat and thick" on the Harbeth if comparison is made with leaner or more prec... | |
| Can the Harbeth 40.1's boggie ????? The tragedy of Macbeth...oops, that should spell Harbeth. For those who have not listened to any Harbeth, I would recommend trying the C7ES3 before jumping to the big 40.1s. Depending on the type of music that is played, the smaller models (P3ESR,... | |
| Audio Physic Scorpio 25 vs Virgo 25 Thanks for the response. Much appreciated. The latest iteration of Audio Physic speakers(25th Anniversary) must be something really special with the improved HHCT and HHCM drivers compared to their predecessors. Apparently I just found out that a ... | |
| Can the Harbeth 40.1's boggie ????? Of course, everything about Harbeth must sound good on the Harbeth forum. There is no room for negative thoughts or criticism as they practice active moderation. As much as I love the Harbeth sound, let's admit it. They do not have the most extend... | |
| Wilson Sophia 3 05-08-10: Elberoth2However, based on my experience with Sophia 2 and Sasha, i can tell you that the biggest difference for me is in the HF department. Sasha tweeter is noticably different to Sophia 2 tweeter and much, MUCH better IMO. Sophia's 2 t... | |
| Rega Brio R bright??? 10-05-11: 4hannonsI was recently at a dealer in Eureka, Ca. listening to the Brio R powering Maggie 1.7. It sounded fairly neutral with tremedous detail, and a good value for what it is. I wouldn't characterize the sound as bright.I'm little surpr... | |
| B&w 803s. Vs nautilus 802 I have listened to my mate's N802 driven by Conrad Johnson tube monoblocks. He previously used a Mcintosh MC402 with the N802s and didn't like the result too well, too laidback and flat sounding according to him. Personally I think it is difficult... | |
| subwoofer for Harbeth P3ESR Personally I wouldn't use a sub with the P3ESR and listen to it as is for the sake of simplicity. If I want more bass or scale I'll just consider a larger model in the Harbeth line if the room can accommodate. Having said that I've tried a sub wit... |
