Olympica II vs Harbeth vs Egglestonworks
#3
I used to own two Harbeths - the P3ESR and later the Monitor 30.1. My experience was that both sounded very impressive at first listen and even for a few months, but over an extended period of 9-12 months, they proved boring/bland. I found them accurate speakers that were too polite for me. They were sold and replaced by speakers from ProAc and Spendor which to my ears are more exciting and musical.

I have to qualify the above by adding my Harbeths were not paired with Devialets but instead Naim amps and I have not heard the new Super HL5 Plus which is supposed to be quite good. As the saying goes "YMMV''.

Good luck!
