These speakers have their devotees to be sure, but it looks like a lot of people are falling OUT of love with them. It's a trend I've noticed here on Audiogon. Opinions?
Tennisdoc40, It's two, not "to", and if you knew even basic information about Harbeth speakers, you would know that they are not "off the shelf" drivers. Pure commerce-no, pure lack of knowledge-yes.
I think the problem with Harbeth is that they sell through a U.S. Importer which makes their speakers expensive. I know in Canada you can buy new 30.1 for around 4000.00. They sell for 5695.00 in the states.
In Canada, the 40.1 is the same price as in the US but in a different currency. My C7 was $3699 last November but the C$ has fallen quite a lot o not sure if pries have been adjusted.
08-06-15: Banerjba Harbeths like Proac, Spendor, Stirling and certain other brands put music first in that classic restrained British way.
Banerjba, Can you please explain what you mean? I am asking this because I own a Quad box speaker and love it. I am looking to upgrade and want to listen to PMC, Spendor, Proacs etc. I listened to PSB Imagine T3 and it is a pretty good speaker. What is the difference between the "voicing" of a American Vs European loudspeaker. When I upgrade, I would like to have a speaker that does at least 30Hz.
