Dynaudio C1 compared to Harbeth Super HL5 plus?


Has anyone had the opportunity to compare these?

Thanks

Both great speakers. I haven't heard the C1 in quite some time. I enjoyed them but recall they sounded best when played a bit louder than I like. I'm about to order the SHL5 Plus in Tiger Ebony as a Thanksgiving present to myself. With the right amplification, Harbeth's can be played at very low volume levels and you don't lose anything.
I had the C1. Then went to Harbeth Compact 7. Now I have the 30.1. I heard the SHL5+ at a dealer. As has been written, the Dyns need plenty of clean power, and sound best at louder volumes. The Harbeths are much more musical to my ears.
donjr,
Give us a review of your SHL5+ system when you have a chance. Look forward to reading your thoughts.
Haven’t compared them side by side but have listened to them in separate systems. I have listened to the C1s at a hifi show many years ago and have listened to all Harbeth models from the P3ESR to the M40.1. To each his own. In the simplest choice of words, the Dynaudios sound like hi-fi, the Harbeth sounds like music. Take your pick depending on your musical preference.
