Great subs choice. I have the same pair in the front corners of my listening room.  Excellent for music of all kinds.  You can adjust as needed with the app from song to song if you like without leaving your listening position.

Clear choice

 

Harbeth C7ES-XD

Been an audiophile for many years and owned many speakers. For Classical Harbeth is above anything I’ve ever heard. These stand mounts have a  fantastic midrange and a low end that does not need a sub. The highs are extended and silky. Soundstage is wide and deep. And they even sound great at low or mid volume. They are the sweet spot in the Harbeth line. At 6 Ohms they are easy to drive. At $4800 a steal.
