New Harbeth Forum

With 275 and SHL5 was my best time with the Harbeth brand speakers ( I think I mentioned to you on PM before ) .... They worked really well together.... One day I will get a pair for my collection :D
 
Hahaha... I know you can but DON'T once you have three Harbeth in your room. They will drive you nuts

Like three girlfriends all vying for your attention. I can hear it now... "Joe's a great guy but he never listens to me anymore!" "Tell me about it, the last time he put his hands on me was to move me out of the way for 40.1."
 
You are too funny Doug. Thursday night will be fun for sure.

Paul, I am so looking forward to trying all my amps on them. :)
 
Spoke with a Harbeth dealer today. He said the 40.1's would be way too big for my room - especially with existing bass challenges. Told me the 30.1's or the new "Super 5's" would be the ticket. Definitely something to consider.

You just need to set them up like this:

I really want to hear some of these speakers but have no plans to drive to New Hampshire anytime soon. Anyone in the PA New Jersey Delaware area have any to demo? Also, what kind of money are we talking about for these beauties? Is there a Price List anywhere?

Brian. Their price is bargain IMO.

Here is the link in CAD however I think they are all same in USD as well.

Paul,

Thanks for that link. I just looked at the specs of the 30.1 and was surprised that it is only 85db. What is the minimum these can be driven with? I am asuming that a 15wpc tube amp won't do it so what do people recommend with these speakers?

Probably 25 wpc or more for the Harbeth. While the sensitivity is low, they are easy to drive.

High Strung Audio in NJ might have some on display.

Awesome Joe. I will be in Brick the week of July 4th on the river and it looks to be real close to there. I will make some time to check it out.

Thanks a bunch!
 
I arranged to schedule a demo while on vacation in July. So many people on all kinds of forums love this brand, and they sure are pretty as hell. Thanks, Joe!
