Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following


Let me start by saying I'm not here to bash Harbeth speakers.I have actually listened to 3 different pairs before I bought my current speakers.I thought they sounded good but I don't understand all the hype around them.They seem to have a cult following like Linn and Naim. What is creating the cult following among Harbeth speakers?

I've used Acoustic Zen cables (Double Barrel Shotgun and Absolute) with Harbeth SHl5+, feel like they are both a great match. 




Obviously you've never eaten bangers and mash. There's never been a forced eating on record. Too delicious.

Have a pair of SLH5 plus for about a month now - and they are quite special.  But I always was drawn to British speakers.  They just seem to have a character that draws me in to the music.

Harbeth does that as good as if not better than most.  Have also had Proac, and Spendor in my home for many years.

Compared to USA, and Danish brands they just seem to warm my innards.  Kind of like bangers and mash.
