one of the best at a show recently... and I must say even through TV speakers and youtube it clearly sounds quite excellent.
$25,000 is deemed affordable LOL - but then again you could pay more for one component these days so I suppose it is "affordable" - affordable for 1% anyway.
Still I have the J/Spe and OTO now for a decade. And it does very little wrong. Or I should say virtually everything else at the price does more things wrong and less things right.
Follow Ups:
why does he say that the AN J HE is 3950$ a pair? They are 5000$ for the AN J Lx. Am I mistaken here, or he clearly made a mistake?BTW, theres no way in hell there DAC is worth 10k. This is where audio note push the lines and sounds ridiculous. And I doubt their cart is worth that much either. Their DAC are not that evolved technologically. I would get a 4k AMR DAC way before the 10k audio note dac. The AMR is even more advanced technologically. so is the ec design dacs.
I believe they shoot themselve in the feet by showing such expensive DAC. It make it sound unnaforable. where they could bring a 1k DAC that sounds real close to their 10k ones.
All I need now is a se tube amp, just dont know where to go. Oto is interesting, but theres so much SE choice.In time...

He said J/D
The CD Transport and DAC combined is ~$10k.
AN successfully sell their CD players/DACs at and well above $10,000. They also sell Dacs under $2k like the DAC 0.1x. So there are cheaper offerings.
Am I wrong, or the AN J D HE is not available anymore? What is the listing price of the AN J D HE?
The AN J/D is $3700 and AN J/D with Hemp woofers is $4000 according to show reports.
this is not the pricing at all.
AN J D is not even available nowadays. Arent they called AN J Lx. or the D version is chip board?
I thought the basic model was only An J Lx and cost now 4500$.
Maybe Bob can chime in. Is the AN J D is still offered new?

I see, so 4100 CAD. hmmm, didnt knew that. so its the basic model. I thought they had stop building those and were just making as entry the Lx which has plywood front and back..
anyone knows what D means? I think its the particle board box, and there is no front and back plywood?
All the letters after the / indicate the cabling being used. The J/D use AN D copper cables - the J/LX uses LX cables.
The current LX models are 100% Russian Birch all the way around.
You can see the cables order here
due to the damaged cabinet, the AN J Lx return to the owner.
I mus say that Ive loved my time with the AN J, and will likely try to find a used old pair. they are just too good.
However, They will not be my main speakers. I need more resolution and detail and more controlled bass. They ultimately lack some transparency and detail of other speakers.
My next speaker try out is: amphion one18

will report back after the amphion is here!
cheers
