These sound very good indeed. Many have felt the Harbeth professional monitor series and the consumer oriented HL5 offer a solution to "upgrade itis" and get you off the merry-go-round of never being satisfied. Owners report they are instead "married...

An excellent product if you have a small room and you listen to music played on acoustical instruments or to vocalists. Natural sound, good tonal balance, good timbre, good detail. Surprising amount of bass makes most recordings sound well-rounded, and...

Natural sound, no harshness in upper frequencies, fuller bass than other monitors, can handle complex orchestral music

Low sensitivity requires healthy wattage from amplifier

The Small Monitor. I have been in search of a good pair of monitors for a year. My budget was $4000. I listened to B&W cdm 1nt, nautilus 805's, signature 805's, Dynaudio, Totem Mani 2's Revel etc. The point is I find the Harbeth if not the best among...

This review is not for M30, but for it'sbig brother M40's. Harbeth Monitor 40 is their current flagship product. Alan Shaw spent a lot of timeand effort to design this and execute so well that it's really hard to imagine speakers can reach this level....

Probably the best small British monitor type speaker you can get. May be a little too much for a smallish room with wall and ceiling boundaries close at hand, but I can think of no other criticism to make. The Monitor 30 is not as warm as the Compact...

Accuracy, detail, truth of timbre and tonality, natural overall balance. As with the Compact 7, bass is surprisingly satisfying for a small, stand-mounted monitor speaker. RADIAL midrange/woofer gets everything on the recording. Very subtle high-end...
