Harbeth vs Proac

Harbeth are very natural sounding speakers & would prefer them over the Proac.
The Proacs are also very good and have enjoyed them to some degree. But somehow, my heart seems to prefer the natural presentation of the Harbeths.
The Proacs sounds a bit more hi fi to me, but in a good way.

Brm1 what models are you considering in Harbeth and Proac?

I have owned the newest 7's, I liked them, but they lacked the resolution of my Coincident. The midrange, just like everyone else says, is still the best I have heard. I have been thinking about the 30's, because of the better tweeter, but they may not produce enough bass...don't know.
In the Proac line, probably on 2.5/2.8 any thing else is way more than I care to spend. The bigger Harbeth's would be interesting, but I will NOT buy anything with metal tweeters.
Thanks
Mike

Both lines have a cult following, and sound 'organic'. The stand Mounted Proac Response 2 or newer D2 however have been among my favorite speakers for over twenty years.
