This time last year I had a solid state Advantage/Bladelius gear with dynaudio speakers. I was still missing something what I finally found now with AN. I have changed everything in my old system except power cords.

Now I'm building a small level 3 allround system. Apart from the preamp the system is complete. The gear should remain inconspicuous in the living room.

I'm spending a lot of time with the tube rolling now (for me as a newcomer it is really exciting). Looking for the "right" sound - natural, clear, detailed and dynamic - as close as possible to the live music. I like all good music from hard rock to classics, but I slightly prefer guitar music (jazz, songwriters, folk). And for this kind of music my equipment is optimalized, at the moment.

The sound is very good, but perhaps a little bit too mighty top-end to the prejudice of the midds. That's why I ordered the WE 300B's.

Now I start listening with the WE300B.

In the next months I'll search for an M5 (or M6,M7?) preamp, but this could be the end of the "small boxed system"...

Any comments or advise would be greatly appreciated.
