Yeah, I'd like to know what the (sonic or other) differences are between the 30.1 and C-7ES3, and why one might choose one over the other. Both use the same radial mid/woofer, but I don't know if the tweeters are the same or not. Both are also almost the same dimensions, but the C-7ES3 is slightly larger overall, has a ~24% larger volume.

Regading your space, if you'd like something larger than the C-7ES3, there's the HL-5+.

Maybe some of the Harbeth experts here can enlighten us.
