Audio Note speakers

Hello-  I am setting up a living room system in which the obvious placement would be speakers in the corners and so I am thinking Audio Note AN-J for the speakers.  Amplifier will likely be the Linear Tube Audio Z40+.  

Does anyone have experience with this combination?

Also any thoughts on whether I want the paper or the hemp cone, and silver or copper wiring for the Audio Note speakers?  Not sure what difference it might make.

Also any suggestions for an affordable speaker wire that might work well with this system?

Thanks!

Margot

@mcanaday there is a friendly and robust Audio Note discussion forum on Steve Hoffman Music Forums where you can receive more comprehensive and robust information about your Audio Note questions if you wish to check it out. 
 

Steve Hoffman is himself an owner of a couple Audio Note systems. Peter Q. values his opinion on components and loudspeakers given Steve’s vast experience as a mastering engineer.

I really wanted to get a pair of Audio Note speakers, but I only have one corner available to me in the room. I spoke to an Audio Note dealer and was told that to really get the best out of the speakers, I would need to use them as designed and place them in corners. Bummer!
