Music Preferences and Comments: | |
Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Jazz (esp. big band), blues, female vocal, indie, some electronic |
System Goals/Comments: | Explore different and higher-end valve power amps. Maybe try and find a modern, high-res DAC to beat the AN (tall order!) |
System Strengths: | Wide open soundstage; effortless scale; beautiful mids rich with life and color; deep, satisfying bass; tons of groove and bounce |
System Weaknesses: | Compared to my old ATC actives, the ANs are more recessed in the midband, have less dynamic range, and are less powerful and controlled in the bass. Treble not as extended or hyper-detailed as some (ribbons?) |
