In Reply to: REVIEW: Harbeth Compact 7 ES-3 Speakers posted by bullethead on August 1, 2009 at 18:08:23:
Harbeth has always recommended that the tweeters be at the height of your ears. When they sold the original C7s with a matching stand, it was 17 inches. The woofer in that cabinet works best on a 16-17 inch stand. You like them. That's fine. But if someone doesn't, I would recommend a lower stand and tilting them back if necessary just enough so that tweeters are firing at the listener's ears. Otherwise you're listening to some salesman's ideas instead of the designer's.
