Naim Uniti + Harbeth Super HL5 for movies?

Posted by: ronaldn on 16 May 2012

Hi everyone. I currently use my Uniti + HL5 for music only. Am considering adding my TV to the mix. Is it a bad idea to watch movies with the Harbeths? I'm particularly concerned about the effect, in any, of explosions and loud sound effects on the speakers from action movies. I'm NOT exploring surround sound, i'm ok with just the Harbeths for stereo sound. Your input is much appreciated. R

I use the SHL5 in a stereo configuration for music as well as movies,, they work beautifully.

No pardon necessary. What video source and tv do you use? I find myself using apple tv via optical into the supernait for most of my movie viewing these days.

I have my TV hooked up to my SU and Harbeth SHL5s. No issues whatsoever! The tv certainly sounds better this way than via tv speakers.
