Description

I originally had an all SS system comprised of Revel Gems, BAT vk-40 preamp, Rowland 201 monoblocks, and an XA9000ES sacd player. It did the "audiophile" thing very well...imaged and staged like crazy, detail was everywhere, etc. But something just wasn't right, I felt. So I decided to completely overhaul my system and went with a 300b tube-based system, and suffice it to say, I have NEVER been happier. I'm done for a looong time.

Hi Nnicot!

I've just seen your and Glory's AN systems and what can one say? I'm sure this must be one of the most satisfying systems one can have...

If ever I can, I will try the AN speakers out but for a while I will have to stay with the original Snells. I have a pair of original Ks and will as soon as possible up-grade to a pair of EIIs. As you describe the AN, its as if they have what I am missing in my Ks. I'm therefore a bit curious to know if you've ever heard/compared the AN-Es with the Snell EIIs.

Will keep looking!
