Considering Harbeth C 7ES-3

Try to audition the Spendor SP2/3R2 or Stirling Broadcast SB-88. I like both quite a lot more than the C7ES3s. The 88s can be had for a good discount since Stirling has mostly been shoved out of the U.S. market thanks to the competition's distributor and marketing. And never mind the SB-88 vs C7 claims of ToneAudio, it's hogwash.

Thank you yogi boy! Looks like a great shop.

I had the 7's and loved them. Now have the 40th SL's. The Analog Room in Campbell is a Harbeth dealer.

Listen to some ProAc and Spendor speakers. I had Harbeth and they were not to my taste. You might like them.
