Harbeth M30 Amp suggestions


Hello Everybody. I am picking up a pair of harbeth M30 speakers. I am quite interested in the Modwright KWA 100SE. How do you think it will drive the M30's? My previous amp was a Mc275. Any ideas let me know!

Thanks

Congrats on the M30 speakers.

Too bad you "dumped" the MC275 for SS. However, the SE delivers
greater overall current available to output stage, translating to increased
speed, bass response, resolution and micro-detail/dynamics. The M30 at 6
ohm should get plenty of current to hear the micro-details from cymbals and
percussion.

What is your preamp? Tube or SS.

A bit surprised that the M30 didn't go lower than 50Hz or more something
like 46Hz or 36Hz.
Hi Jon I haven't tried the Modright but I also have the M30s and used to drive them with the MC275.
I now use ( like the Modright) a 100watt SS amp, a Nagra PSA, and noticed all the benefits that Lapierre mentioned without any tradeoffs.
So I'd conclude that 100watts of SS is a good match for the M30s.
hey Guys

I had to sell the 275 for another project. I can do it again if thats the right amp. I am using a Modwright SWLP SE 9.0 as my pre. We all know its fun to try new equipment. The 275 was very good with other speakers in the Harbeth Line as well. What about Bel Canto ? Modwright and Mcintosh are prefered.
