Angeboten wird „P3 ESR XD in Kirsche“ von Harbeth Acoustics als Ausstellungsstück aus der Kategorie „Kompaktlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 9135464977 endet am 26.09.2026 um 13:05 Uhr.
In good condition, €1,520 sits just above the €1,498 median and well inside the typical used range, so this reads as a fair asking price rather than a steal or an ambitious ask. It’s a touch above the middle of the market, but not enough to call it overpriced given the current comparables.
That makes it a sensible buy if you want the Harbeth thing: compact monitors with a very natural midrange, superb voicing, and easy long-term living in a small room or nearfield setup. At this price, the appeal is less about spec-sheet fireworks and more about the pedigree, the resale stability, and the fact that a clean, well-kept pair can be a long-term keeper.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Harbeth Audio Ltd. traces its origins to 1977, when BBC Research Department engineer H.D. (Dudley) Harwood founded the company in the UK upon his retirement. Harwood, a pioneer in loudspeaker cone materials, commercialized his inventions—including polypropylene cones developed during four decades of BBC-funded research—to produce monitor speakers that echoed the broadcaster's precision standards. This heritage, rooted in the BBC's comprehensive loudspeaker investigations from the 1960s and 1970s, positioned Harbeth as a direct descendant of iconic designs like the LS3/5a.
The brand focuses exclusively on high-fidelity loudspeakers, eschewing amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables. Harbeth's innovations center on proprietary materials and engineering, notably the patented RADIAL™ cone introduced in the 1990s, which minimizes distortion for exceptional clarity and natural reproduction. Standout models include the Super HL5 Plus, Monitor 30.1, and Monitor 40.2, all refined through ongoing refinements to critically damped cabinets, polymeric cones, and crossover networks.
Harbeth commands a revered position in the high-end hi-fi market as a niche boutique specialist, prized by discerning audiophiles for its balanced, transparent sound that prioritizes musicality over hype. Under Alan Shaw's leadership since 1986, blending BBC traditions with rigorous quality control, it sustains an irrefutable reputation for world-class performance at low-to-medium volumes, earning critical acclaim worldwide.
