Thanks!
As for other components, I use Cary SLI-80 integrated amp furnished with Tung-Sol 6550 tubes, GE, Sylvania or KenRad 6SN7 tubes, Telefunken 6DJ8 tubes and RCA 5U4 rectifiers.
Speaker cables are Acoustic Zen Satori. Cardas "cross" speaker cable also sounded superb (much better than my old Esoteric Audio Interpath) before I purchased Acoustic Zen which is more neutral than Cardas, though I did not compare them.
I alternate the Snells with the Italian Concentus Lyra speakers which are much better than Snells when I listen to jazz. Snells are easier on the ear and have much better highs than Lyras.
It seems that Snells sound better when placed against the wall (better bass).
Best regards,
Alexander
