| Harbeth Monitor series: overview |
|
 |
|
From the Monitor 20 through to the Monitor 40, these Harbeth professional speakers are widely used throughout the BBC in the UK and overseas by sound engineers who demand the most accurate and natural sound.
Central to the Harbeth design philosophy is that a well designed speaker should be both revealing and absolutely effortless to work with, just as if the performers are really in the room - which on the other side of the glass they actually are. Put a Harbeth monitor to the test with a "live-v-reproduced" comparison and Harbeth's Patented cone technology is absolutely unbeatable for natural reproduction.
The Harbeth monitor family was designed as a size for size drop-in replacement for the former BBC LS3/5a, LS5/9 and LS5/8 speakers, but are updated with the best drive unit, crossover and cabinet technology available. They are truly the last word in natural monitoring.

| Harbeth Monitor 20 - passive |
|
| The smallest harbeth is the Monitor 20 which replaces the BBC LS3/5a. About the size of a shoe box, these incredible mini monitors offer the easy Harbeth sound but in a very convenient size which make them ideal in small OB trucks or workstation-offices. |

 |
| Harbeth Monitor 30 - passive |
|
| The medium sized Monitor 30 strikes the perfect balance between the convenient size of the Monitor 20 and the big, accurate sound stage of the Monitor 40, with which it shares the same two drive units. |

| Harbeth Monitor 40 - active |
|
| The Active Monitor 40 is the Harbeth flagship. The 6 channel amplifiers and line-level crossovers offer a spellbinding sound stage that is future-proof and has a frequency response that is optimisable for all control room environments. The two speakers are supplied with two 19" rack-mount electronic modules. |

The Harbeth Monitor Series is supplied in a hard wearing fine-texture grey paint finish. The passive speakers accept Speakon 2 or 4 pole plugs and the active Monitor 40, a male 3-pin XLR for signal input into each speaker's amplifier box.
All Harbeth speakers are at their best away from walls and other reflective surfaces, ideally on open stands with the listener's ear on the tweeter axis.
