The Devialet sounds fantastic with them so I'm sure the Harbeth 30.1 will be great as well.
I've got the slightly smaller model, floorstanding version, the Graham (Chartwell) LS6f, and I agree. Very musical and natural. The LS6 has a rear port, but the floorstanding LS6f version uses an integrated plinth instead. As a result, the bass sounds almost effortless.
I envy you people with all those great BBC speaker descendants! For the moment I have to postpone my speaker project, as I decided to get an upgrade to the 220 Pro CI. This is a hefty investment, so my Harbeth monitor 30 project will be delayed substantially. The dealer that got me interested in the Harbeths wasn't happy about my decision at all :-(( But a few years later down the road, the issue will come up again!
