Amp Suggestions for Harbeth C7es3


I have a pair of C7 pairing with Supernait. In my current room (8'x10' room with speakers placed against 10' side wall), the combination is a bit too expansive. I would appreciate some opinions if I were to change the amp to get a little more high frequence air and better sound stage and sound image definitions. I mostly listen to Classical and Jazz music, occasionally vocal and pop, thus I don't mind losing a bit bottom end punch, as long as the bass definition doesn't suffer. I am also not ready yet to jump to the tube camp yet. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

I think Ryder is on the right track here. However, even before doing room treatments, I would suggest playing around with speaker placement and listening position. Given the room size there may not be much you can do, but it is free and completely reversible. If you can set up the room to listen in the near field, that may give you the sound you want. If you cannot get the sound you want with position changes, room treatments would be the next step. As others have said, the Harbeth/Naim combination is a good one. I would try to get them working in your room before spending money on different components.
My room is 10 X 12. The Harbeth 7's just did not work in there. The HLP3, now that is a good size Harbeth for that room.
Definitely P3's... I'm in an 11'x18' room and switched from Ohm MicroTalls to the Harbeth P3ESR. Even those little Ohms overloaded the room. The Harbeths are the perfect size - incredible little speakers.
Thank you all for the inputs.
Guess I'll try fiddling around a lot more during X'mas and then decide.
To Muzikat and Zkzpb8, I've thought of smaller speakers, but liked C7 too much to let it go.
I've also tried the Hi-Cap, very impressive indeed, but I think it tighten the sound a little too much. More acurate, better definition, just a little...too...tight, pity. If I were using different speakers, say kef 201/2 or Dynaudio C1, probably. Then again, do like these speakers.
What do you guys think Larvadin amps, Jeff Rowland Capri S+102, and Marantz KI intergrated? Has anyone tried any of those with C7?

Regards.
The pairing of the C7s with LFD integrateds is legendary, of course. Much discussion on that if you haven't done a search already. Haven't heard it myself, but can testify that LFD with the P3ESRs is a very pleasant pairing indeed.
