RE: Peter Van Wellinsward (sp?) of Stereophile owns the AN E...

Okay but lets add and subtract a buit from the scripture.

Firstly there is a saying that a jack of all trades will be a master of none. This is leveled against AN. But AN did not build everything from the ground up. My impression is that that AN has created SET amplifiers and DACs. That's it. The rest was bought, Initial R&D etc. So you buy out the masters of the others. You buy Voyd, Systemdeck, Philips transports, Snell Loudspeakers, Rega Tone arms, Goldring Carts. Make adjustments stick your name badge on it and there you go.

PQ has stated that the matching process is not as close as production models...it says it on their UK kit site. I have personally heard a KIT E versus a production E and for me it's a significant difference in favour of the production model - so I can only gather that sopmeone at AN has the time to match or the kit builder messed up. But the builder in this case was a professional.
