Product Information
Building on its already impressive predecessor, the Harbeth M40.5 XD2 takes a leap forward, with breathtaking realism, exceptional transparency and powerful bass all to the fore.
Flagship sound quality
Harbeth’s reputation for the most lifelike sound possible reaches its zenith with the stunning M40.5 XD2. If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to have the finest studio speakers at home, you need wonder no more. The M40.5 XD2’s use a 3-way design to cover the broadest frequency response possible, delivered with the utmost precision. The latest model uses RADIAL4 drivers for the mid-range and has improved crossovers, both of which help to further enhance the mid-range performance.
Mighty bass response
Although technically still standmount speakers, the M40.5 XD2s have the might to easily overshadow most floorstanders. With 300mm bass cones, the bottom end is effortlessly deep and extended well below what you might expect. It really is like having a subwoofer built-in. Being Harbeth, however, you can be assured that the bass isn’t ‘lose’ and ‘woolly’. As with every other Harbeth XD2 model, the bass is pin-sharp and hits every note with perfect timing.
The ideal speaker for the music lover
With their wide frequency response and balanced sound, the M40.5 XD2s are ideal for those with a broad range of music tastes. The natural balance brings all types of acoustic music to life yet, when it comes to rock, pop or full-scale orchestral music, the speakers are happy to pick up the pace and get ‘stuck in’.
Perfect for larger rooms
Much larger than most standmount speakers, the Harbeth M40.5 XD2 speakers suit most medium-sized to larger rooms, filling them with rich, full-bodied sound. For peak performance, they should be mounted on short stands and placed at least 30cm from the rear wall.
Luxurious range of finishes
Although strictly functional in design, the M40.5 XD2 speakers are finished to the highest standards. The handmade cabinets are finished in a wide range of real wood veneers. Choose between traditional wood veneers, such as cherry, oak, walnut and rosewood or go for the classic black ash.
Indulgence your passion for music, with the Harbeth M40.5 XD2.
