In Reply to: RE: Harbeth 30.1 vs Ref 3a De Capo be posted by Tubegroover on April 15, 2015 at 23:13:08:
The L'integrales have great bass and weight for a speaker their size. Until I upgraded the MMCs to a Be tweeter I used to go back and forth between the two speakers. In the end, the MMCs were a bit more transparent and with the excellent Mirage BPS210 (bipolar beast) i had plenty of weight, so I chose the MMCs for the Be surgery.
I did not use the Capacitors recommended by Ref 3a though. I have some other very good ones that I used...probably doesn't make a huge difference but with only one cap in the circuit it surely does something.
I did upgrade my tweeters in the L'integrales to SEAS excel tweeters and that improved resolution and extended the top end slightly. I have some other good soft domes I might eventually play with though.
That said, my main speakers now are the totally awesome Odeon La Boheme full horn speakers (2 way with backloaded horn bass and wooden horn tweeter). The Ref 3as are great for smallish speakers but cannot compete with the Odeons...just a different weight class altogether.
