2 years now with my M30.1's & although thanks to Covid 19 I never got the dream amp to drive them,settling instead for a 15wpc.Pure Class A SS Chinese amp,they are still the finest speakers I've ever owned.Over & over again I amazed at their ability to see DEEP into a recording,digging out things like that tiny little dead space BETWEEN the windings of a guitar string as a finger slides along or the resonance of a Gibson LP body compared to a Fender Strat..I really don't see EVER changing speakers again,unless I get lucky with a few stocks then the 40.2's would replace them but for the next year it will be all about saving for that Sugden A21SE that I dream of driving the Harbeth...
Harbeth M30
Hi, All.
I recently bought Harbeth M30. They are driven by NAIM NAP 180, NAC112, and MERIDIAN 506 (10 year old). My former speakers are Harbeth P3, which I loved so much. Very detailed presentation with amazing mid range.
Honestly, I am expecting same things from M30 with bigger sound stage and more base. So far, I have been disappointed with M30. I do not have any idea about this. Aging? Power and Pre amplifier are not enough to drive the M30?
I am seriouly considering upgrading the source to NAIM CDP.
Any suggestion welcome.
