Harbeth 30.1 are outstanding !!!!

Set up temporarily until I decide on the proper stands. Smaller than I expected but oh so big in sound. Looks are stunning. These really are amazing speakers. Superb vocals. MORE than enough detail, if not too much :) Do I miss my TADs, no way!

Love 'em

Joe, Bravo! :audiophile:
 
Joe, I heard Harbeth speakers sound their best when playing vinyl [emoji12]
 
I'm late to this party but I'm very happy for you Joe! Your experiences have given me a wealth of knowledge. Keep on trucking, and listening :).
 
Thank you Michael,

As long as we have fun, that's all that matters.

Thanks Cyril

That's awesome. Yes. I've tried the SN2 and it certainly is one of the best combinations. I still have a few more combos to go but there's an undeniable synergy between Naim and Harbeth.

Hey Joe...The 30.1s and Naim just got Best of Show vote from TheAudioBeat.com at the Newport show. Are you running them with your SuperNait 2? Here's the link: Harbeth, Naim - The Audio Beat - www.TheAudioBeat.com

Naim is better with Harbeth than Shindo is. Shindo is too warm for Harbeth . I have tried both I love Harbeth and Shindo but its not the best marriage. Transformers of the Shindo are being strained by low impedance speakers and relatively low efficiency.
 
Absolutely correct. I love these babies. So much so, I told my dealer to get me a pair of the new Super HL5 plus speakers also. These rock!

The 30.1's are fantastic speakers!

I have never heard the Harbeth HL5 , but I have heard that work really well with Leben. Another fantastic pairing is The Audio Note Ovator. The only issue with the Ovator on a personal note its above my payscale sadly.
 
hello joe- just discovered this site and (correctly) assumed that it might be your 30.1 that i was about to purchase.Now all the drama (except listening) is gone*L*.Have already seen the beautiful grain ,even before they arrive. Looking forward to seeing and meeting You. Really appreciate your help

I'm not saying this because I own a pair of SHL5's, but it has been said many times that the SHL5 may be the best speaker in the Harbeth lineup;);)
 
Hi Rich,

Can't wait to see you tomorrow.

Joe
