Oh crap! Well I don’t listen to elevator music. Blues, acoustic, folk, folk rock, rock and classical encompass my tastes. Emphasis on blues. Love the blues guitar, harmonica and saxophone. Love female voices too.
JA Pulsars vs Harbeth 30.2
Well still investigating different speakers. In the used world these speakers are similarly priced and both have great reviews. Does anybody in the Audubon family have familiarity with these two speakers. Which one would you recommend and why. I have a dedicated room approx 20x 15 with no special acoustic treatments. Wall to wall carpet. I mostly stream with bluesound node 2. I have a Hegel 390 Integrated amp and project turntable and Yamaha CD player both around $300 - $400. Mostly listen to blues, folk and rock. Some classical too.
look forward to hearing from you

@rsf507 you should have your ears cleaned & a hearing test! |
Thanks for ur input. It is very difficult with such divergent takes on the same speaker. Which gets us back to how the sound of speakers is very personal. I do believe that both of these speakers are excellent. I have to admit that link that @bassdude had did not sound mellow to me. Very confusing |
Definitely go for the 30.2 if you’re planning to audition. Harbeth has tuned the 30.2 to be a bit more open and airy (better treble) compared to the 30.1. If you feed it with good amplification it will not be ‘soft’ at all. What it won’t do is to throw the detail in your face. You will notice that all the detail in your music is still there, it just doesn’t ‘prioritize’ higher frequencies compared to the rest. This makes for an excellent speaker for long, fatigue free sessions. |
