This would be a better fit for your musical taste. It will fly better than the Harbeths!

Didn’t notice before you were powering these with a reciever. Dynaudios like a high current amp. Not sure the Onkyo would do justice to them. I would look for something more efficient if you are planning on keeping the Onkyo. Paradigm signature S2 can rock pretty good if you can find a used pair. Totally different flavor though. |
He has to fly with them, and listen to doom. Interesting criteria. I don't have an answer, but this reminded me of the old cool KLH system in a suitcase (speakers and a turntable!), and the old Cambridge Soundworks company made a speaker-woofer suitcase rig also. You could fly with it, but this was pre-doom so to speak. |
