Are Harbeth the only warm and euphonic speakers in town ?


I've looked far and wide especially for bookshelf speakers with prominent full mids and a lush sound. So far the only name that comes up is harbeth. Maybe Sonus faber but are there other speakers that have similar tone but are made by a different company?

And I lucked out big time! The resonance of the room and the speaker output is a great marriage . Also got a pair of EPOS Epic 2- unreal!

When I compared my departed Epic 2s to the C7ES3s, the former were the clear winners, even if only for the difference in dynamics.

I got a used pair of Vienna acoustics Haydn grands coming in. Will let you guys know how it sounds.

smodtactical,

Danny Richie from GR has an interesting evaluation of them on youtube.

The warmest are Audio Note speakers.  Classic Spendors are also good warm speakers.  ProAcs, such as DB 3 are also nice, warm, speakers.  Nola standmounts should also be considered.  Any of the copies of BBC designs, such as Falcon speakers qualify as well.

@roxy54  I don't think he evaluated the haydn grand. It was the mozart and just a speaker called grand.
