About the Super HL5
The Harbeth Super HL5 is a stand-mount, three-way, bass-reflex loudspeaker using a 200mm Harbeth RADIAL bass/mid driver, a 25mm SEAS aluminium-dome tweeter, and a 20mm titanium-dome super tweeter with a neodymium magnet, developed from BBC thin-wall cabinet research for low-colouration performance. The cabinet is built from thin MDF panels veneered on both sides and damped to control resonances, with screwed-on front and rear panels and a rear bass-reflex port. The speaker offers a specified frequency response of 40Hz to 24kHz (plus or minus 3dB) in free space, nominal impedance of 6-8 ohms, sensitivity of 86dB/1W/1m, and recommended amplifier power between 25W and 150W. Each speaker measures approximately 638 x 322 x 300mm and weighs about 16.8kg, and is fitted with four gold-plated binding posts for bi-wiring. Known for its natural midrange, smooth treble and wide, stable soundstage, the Super HL5 is praised for its transparency, tonal balance and ability to handle wide dynamic swings with an unforced, musical presentation.
