Harbeth M30.3 XD2 Bookshelf Speakers (Pair)

Experience the Revered 7.88-Inch RADIAL4 Driver in a Bookshelf Loudspeaker Sized to Fit Most Spaces: British-Made Harbeth M30.3 XD2 Delivers Reference-Level Monitor Performance

The draws of the Harbeth M30.3 XD2 bookshelf loudspeaker are many, but for most listeners, it will come down to size. As they say in real estate, it’s all about location, and that’s something this 18.1 x 10.9 x 10.8-inch (HWD) model knows well. Devised to fit in areas off-limits to most other models that offer the degrees of performance that come naturally to M30.3 XD2, this model combines footprint-friendly architecture with Harbeth’s large 7.88-inch RADIAL4 bass/midrange driver and a supremely refined crossover that specializes in accuracy and openness.

First and foremost, M30.3 XD2 invites you to listen critically and without fatigue. If you’re the type of music lover who places a premium on neutrality, natural tonal balance, rich smoothness, and uncompromising accuracy, you owe it to yourself to hear how your favorite recordings sound on the M30.3 XD2. Weighing 25.6 pounds, it offers emotionally involving performance marked by three-dimensional soundstages and stunning articulation.

An exacting monitor that plays with purity, clarity, and eloquent detail — and which proves particularly insightful with vocal, jazz, classical, and lighter rock fare — M30.3 XD2 looks as beautiful as it sounds. Hand-assembled by master craftsmen in Harbeth’s dedicated factory in Britain, it mates with an exceptionally wide range of amplifiers and is easy to drive (six ohms impedance, 85dB sensitivity). A one-inch ferrofluid-cooled tweeter and expertly designed crossover help account for its show-shopping presence, control, and clarity. 

Complete with handmade cabinets featuring stunning veneers, Harbeth-branded binding posts, and the company’s tradition of testing everything on each speaker before placing them in custom boxes for shipping, M30.3 XD2 is perfectionist-minded English-styled hi-fi through and through.
