I have listened to the Wharfedale Lintons, KEF R3s and the Harbeth 30.2s. The Lintons and R3s are nice, but the Harbeths have the magic midrange. They go surprisingly low, in room, and the highs are wonderful. They do not suffer from anemia.

They are coherent and the best stand mount speakers I've ever heard for under $18,000.

You may want to audition a pair.

PS If you can get a pair of 30.2 Anniversaries, go for them. WBT binding posts, upgraded capacitors and wiring.
