Lossless1 Awesome system!
I did get a chance to hear the big Analysis speakers, sounded pretty impressive to me.
Not to say what you should do but I have listened to the Joule Electra along side the Viva Audio Devices Linea Preamplifer and the Viva is on another level that few or any preamps can match at any price. The Viva also has an amazing amount of gain perfect for your speakers, totally hand made in Italy the separate power supply uses 2 300B's and massive hand wound oil and paper transformers! The only thing is the Viva is really expensive now do to the Euro?. The early version of the VAC Renaissance is also pretty sweet. I've never heard that Ayon amp but it sure looks gorgeous.
I've been lucky enough to hear all three preamps on the same speakers at a local hi-end store, at any rate they are way more then I can afford! I did get a chance to replace all my tubes with cryoed NOS versions. A great and fairly affordable way to tweak the sound. With those speakers your room must be huge! If you love the way your system sounds their is not much more to say.
Here's to the music,
