Harbeth Super HL5 Plus 40th Anniversary Standmount Speakers - Walnut

Today’s Harbeth is a unique British success story.
Our late founder Dudley Harwood was head of the BBC’s legendary loudspeaker R&D team. Although nostalgia has its place, what today’s serious listener demands is more than simply a re-creation of those early models.
No matter what your musical source, Harbeth loudspeakers are capable of extracting the last atom of sonic detail. As you will discover, that is largely due to our ongoing innovations in loudspeaker diaphragm materials.
The RADIAL™ secret - Research And Development Into Advanced Loudspeakers
The fundamental sound quality of a loudspeaker is encoded into the DNA of the cone material.
At the heart of every Harbeth beats our own exceptional bass/midrange RADIAL™ drive unit – designed and hand-crafted right here in Sussex, England.
Nothing outperforms Harbeth’s polymer RADIAL™ diaphragm for clarity of sound – it’s the core of the Harbeth experience.
Loudspeaker cones made from conventional plastics have the wrong balance of mechanical and acoustic properties for audio reproduction. What’s needed is a completely fresh approach: new thinking, new materials.
Harbeth’s advanced cone technology project created RADIAL™ – the secret-formula used in Harbeth’s exclusive bass/midrange drive units. Over five man-years of Harbeth’s dedicated, world-class research (part-funded by the UK Government) investigated all loudspeaker diaphragm materials. None met the Harbeth requirement for clarity and neutrality, so Harbeth RADIAL™ was born – and even further advanced as RADIAL2™.
Pistonic behaviour is critical across the entire audio range – so only with our RADIAL™ cones is it possible to achieve the freshness of live sound.
