@baranyi - not "off the AN carousel", they are fine speakers and electronics. Still have my AN/e and enjoy them at my summer spot. I just came across a set of custom Valencias done by a local shop and thoroughly enjoy them more than anything I have or had. I knew the second I heard them that they were right in my lane. As far as Audio Note, I would get a set of TOTL J if I were to go that route again. The AN/e are amazing but need to be in corners to get the most out of them. I don't have that kind of room at home so didn't work where I had originally planned. If you have AN in your sights, they are great, you will NOT be disappointed in any way unless you have a same corner-less situation. Just my experience.
