In search for speakers of "natural" sound

Hello,
I am using a pair of Harbeth speakers. However, I am not satisfied with the 'naturalness' of the sound (it could be that I am so demanding). I am looking for a pair of speakers that can produce the more natural and organic sound than Harbeth if there is any.

I know that it depends on the amp, cables, and other variables. However, let's assume that with the appropriate gears, which speakers do you think can produce the "most natural sound"? By "natural", I mean the sound that we hear directly from musical instruments, from the singer without going through any amplification.

There is a user mentioning that speakers from the past used that 'natural sound' as a reference when designed speakers. In contrast, the sound today (even the hi-end one) is to "hi-fi". He guessed it could be less people have chance to listen to live / acoustic music than before.  

Is it right?

Thank you for your experience and recommendation!
Best,
Huy.

P.S: I know that my questions are silly and dumb, please bear with me.

When I had Harbeth M30's I found they sounded much better after I added a REL subwoofer and properly dialed it in.  
Since then I've moved up to Monitor 40.1's and that was the magic I was after for the natural sound I was after.  
I've also gone through several amplifiers and still like to hear others that I haven't heard yet.  I wouldn't give up on the 30.1's until you heard them with other amps first.

The natural sound? In a live band cafe, we hear and comprehend people's voices and band music at the same time. However, in reproduction audio, we can’t comprehend the audio music and friends’ voice at the same time because all reproduction audio sounds unnatural. One exception. The true natural sound. https://youtu.be/rIozE36zTvc?t=300
