I have to be careful with what I say here to not offend anyone. I also have to spend far more time with the Wilson's and the Dyanudio's, including until after proper break-in and ideal placement is found in my room for each one. What I can say is that the Wilson's are worlds apart from the Harbeth's. The Harbeth's are incredibly colored/distorted in comparison. The worst recordings sound fine on them, quality ones sound better... up until you get to a properly recorded voice or real instrument, then you notice their shortcoming. The wilson's are incredibly transparent, quick and nuanced... if you want to hear how a real voice or real instrument sounds, or better yet, how and even where they were recorded... the Wilson's will show you.
