Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
AN-K is a vey neutral sounding speaker. There is no prominence in any areas. Coherent and organic.
It will also strike you as a very ordinary speaker but the longer you listen to them, the more you appreciate them.
Best driven with tubes, AN-K will give you countless hours of untired listening.

Weaknesses:
Fussy with placement and amplifier.

Similar Products Used:
AN-K sounded close to Harbeths if you are wondering how they sound.

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $600.00 from second hand private

Summary:
The Audio Note K is a very pleasant and musical loudspeaker. The two-way design sounds very integrated and coherent. Not for those looking for an analytic sound or heavy bass. It's musical and smooth, in my opinion. The thing is, it sounds good with just about any type of music. It may not be very very analytic, but it shares the feeling of the music with you. Rock and pop, classical, jazz, vocals, they all sound like music. If you are tired of listening to a collection of very interesting and detailed sounds, and just want to play music again, consider this speaker. It is a really good speaker for those audiophiles who are also musicophiles.

Strengths:
Musical. Easy on the amp. Great with female voices and acoustic guitar.

Weaknesses:
Not for those who look for the analytical sound or thundering bass.

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
