| System Goals/Comments: | Audio Note Turntable Two / Audio Note DAC - any I can afford / Audio Note cabling |
| System Strengths: | A solid smooth top end. Great dynamics. Really the word should simply be the complete musical event without drawing attention to pyrotechnics. |
| System Weaknesses: | When a system makes true music there are no weaknesses. On the other hand I have heard what the speakers can do in all Audio Note systems - thus it can be a lot better. Other weakness - it isn't the E/Sec with Meishu and 3.1 cd player and AN TT3 Reference - the finest systems I've heard to date. |
