Harbeth P3SER



This is a speaker I have been dying to try, but there is no convenient dealer near me to audition them.

In the meantime, I notice that several pairs have appeared for sale in recent weeks, after it was initially hard to ever see them on the used market.

Has the production machine simply cranked up to full speed, or are these speakers not living up to their original hype?

Is anyone living with this speaker who could comment on the sound?

in 100% agreement with that...and Cwlondon, if we could all be a little more secure in what our ears tell us, we wouldn't care a farthing anyway.

sound? they are wonderful little speakers with a big sound.
Audiophiles change their minds like a girl changes clothes. (hmm, did that sound a bit Kate Perry-ish?) I wouldn't worry about it.
I bought them on faith three months ago and don't regret it for a minute. They are my office desktop monitors and I'm totally addicted to them. If you love music you will love these speakers.
I have the P3ESR. If you have a small to medium size room, I think they are one of the best speakers money can buy. In comparison to the Roger LS3/5A (15 ohm), the P3ESR retains the magical mid range and vocals, but with deeper bass and extended highs.

People sell speakers for various reasons (e.g. not compatible or changing electronics, room change, want to try something new etc.,). In fact, I am posting mine for sale because of changing to a much bigger listening room which the P3ESR is not designed for that. I have not heard of any updated P3ESR.
