I have owned the Harbeth M30.1,C7 and the newer P3ESR. In my 20x15 size listening room using tube amplification the original P3 just sounded better. I always prefer a sealed speaker better than any speaker with ports. BTW, I have tried many different speakers and I always go back to the P3. I have owned five pairs so I learned my lesson not to change to other speakers just because they are pricier and bigger!
This guy likes them like I do!
