Harbeth sound with high wife acceptance factor?

I fell in love today with the Harbeth C7s.

Unfortunately, my wife did not.

She doesn't like speakers on stands, she doesn't like big speakers. But she did like the sound ;-)

Any suggestions for a small floorstander with Harbeth sound and better looks? We listened to the Dali Mentor 6 - the looks were great, the sounds was good, but it was just not as musical as the Harbeth.

Budget is around $3,000 - any suggestions?

Lol Stereo5 and Jmc! Too funny.

CT, if the two of you love the Harbeths, GET THEM!! Like Gsm said, just put them on some good looking stands...

I just don't think your wife likes speakers, period, lol. "She doesn't like speakers on stands, she doesn't like big speakers"... well what other kinds are there?? Just kidding by the way :-)

Can the two of you look at some Totems? I recently auditioned some Arros for 3 hours and they changed my whole take on what I'm trying to get out of my system.

Anyhow, good luck!

Maybe we should start with the root of the problem... It's not good for your Wife to be getting high ;-)

Lol, oh my gosh, I kill myself!

There was a pair of Celestion Kingstons here for sale a few weeks back and they look pretty dang nice and got great reviews also...
