Developed as a BBC studio loudspeaker, the Monitor 30 has a well-rounded sound which is a big hit in the domestic market too.
Sharing its drive units with the reference Monitor 40.1, sonically and visually the smaller M30 disappears into the home listening room . Engineered around Harbeth’s RADIAL™ technology, the Monitor 30 achieves effortless clarity throughout the midrange with a well controlled bass that brings music to life in a wide range of listening environmenments.
Initially developed as a drop-in replacement /upgrade for the BBC LS5/9 studio monitor, the convenient proportions and well rounded sound soon led the Monitor 30 into the domestic market where it's acclaimed as the 'perfect all-rounder'.
Compared with its big brother Monitor 40.1, the cabinet is only about half the height and a quarter the volume; the Monitor 30 to sonically and visually disappears into a domestic listening room when mounted on a matching stands. Engineered around Harbeth's RADIAL™ technology, the Monitor 30 achieves effortless clarity throughout the midrange, with extended bass and at higher levels than the Monitor 20 - but with the same family balance as the flagship Monitor 40.1. |

"They are, excuse the expression, awesome.. Harbeth have produced a line of loudspeakers that are very resolved and analytical and transparent, but also very rich. They don't exemplify the dichotomy the audio world has set up that claims that you can have transparent, resolved sound or a rich, musical speaker, but not both qualities in the same product. The Harbeth speakers put a lie to that. The Monitor 30s can anchor a hugely capable system that would be ideal for small combo jazz or classical music short of large orchestral pieces like Mahler symphonies." |
