Taters ..I own Dynaudio,never owned Harbeths but have listened to the line on a few occasions, 40.1 the most recent.I personally dont think Dynaudio has a "house sound" as stated by the above poster,very neutral which is one of their strenghts.I suggest stepping up the Dynaudio line if funds are available/confidence line or above..If a switch is in your crawl there are many speakers that out perform Harbeth,IMO
