Check the Spendor D7.2. Amazingly fast, clear speakers with a midrange worthy of Harbeth’s best.
My listening sure disagreed with that.
As a fan of the Spendor classic and Harbeth midrange I’d hoped the Spendor D speakers had some of the magic. I didn’t find anything spendor-like about it. Just a competent contemporary speaker like plenty of others, missing that special human organic midrange of the classic series. (In fact the Spendor D7 was the most disapointing speaker I auditioned in a long list).
I vastly preferred my (at the time) Harbeth SuperHL5+ speakers over the Spendor Ds.
Just giving an alternative take.
