prof +1 I heard Classic 100 and D7 in same system same day; there was no comparison, the Classic was so much better on all fronts. I heard the SLH5 in a very different space/system, and found it a little bright. Quite unlike the 40.2's that I ended up with. I'd rank the 40.2 just a tad above the Classic 100. Some people manage to put 40.2's in remarkably small spaces. If you have a full meter behind from the back of the cabinet, and good space to both sides, I would think it could work. The other speaker I would rank #3 was the Vienna Acoustics Liszt.
Spendor D9.2 vs. Harbeth super hl5 plus xd + REL Stentor III vs. Spendor Classic 100?
I am thinking of purchasing one of the following:
1). Harbeth SHL5 plus XD + REL Stentor III Reference Subwoofer due to lack of bass and low octave in bass.
2). Spendor Classic 100 - The bass is a bit noticeable and aggressive.
3). Spendor D9.2.
My living room where the system will stand is: 5.5 meters x 8 meters, a standard ceiling of 2.7 meters and the entire construction is a 20 cm block. From the living room comes a 25 meters kitchen. The speakers I choose can stand up to about 1 meter from the front wall.
Anyone who has heard of at least 2 of them or a previous generation and can have an opinion on a comparison between them?
Thank you very much for your help.
