Midrange Better Than Harbeth or Spendor?

Mids? Apogee Stages if you can find them and cope with them if they break. Best, most natural midrange tonality at any price, along with sweet, relaxing highs
(at the cost of deep bass or much soundstage).
Above is IMHO... (No flames please, just one former owner's long-held opinion.)

I'm a bit surprised that no one's yet mentioned Quad.

I did suggest Quad earlier in the thread and I agree with you that a more full range design with a great mid may be preferable. Nevertheless the question was about a great mid range and therefore it makes sense to suggest Quad.

rgs92: I am a big Apogee fan and owner as you can see from my system. Regarding the Stages, I agree with you. They have a killer midrnge. In fact, I also find their bass to be satisfactory except for the very bottom end. They sound much bigger than their size suggests, of course depending upon the amp ----- I am using Musical Fidelity KW on them, which is kinda overkill. However, I am doing a project with the Stages: I am stcaking two pairs. We will see if it works out, may be even generate some deep bass.

Will post details on my system thread.

Shadorne,

Sorry, I missed your response. Needless to say, I'm with you on this one.
