that used to be my impression whenever I heard them BUT I'm probably going deaf and for some time now I use "floppy" Celestion SL600 with old Avantgarde subs and French SS amp. It's absolutely lovely and I think I would like Harbeth's as well.
As one poster said ,the following is so strong that you're not going to loose any money on resale if you buy carefully.
