Opinions on Audio Note ANj speakers

I have the Audio Note E-SECs and, frankly, feel blessed. However, my story begins with the cheapest AN-Es. I brought them into my home on a lark, just a data base enhancing sort of move to further appreciate my Kharma Ceramiques which were four, that's right 4, times the price. Within a few days I stopped listening to the Kharmas, because I preferred the ANs. Then I sold the Kharmas and ordered the AN-E-SECs. The condition of the purchase was that I have on loan the Es until the E-SECs arrived: the Audio Note's kind of ruin you for any other speakers, sound stage, tonality, transparency....

Another awakening to my former beliefs is how good the Js sound: simply, better than any other monitor I have listened to, and I have auditioned at least a dozen in the past two years.

Jim says check 'em out!

I have the E-SEC top of the line Audio Notes. They are the most and only satisfying speakers I have ever heard. You just listen to the music and don't care about the equipment.
My affliction with audio disease is finally coming to an end!

I acquired a pair of ANj/L speakers and am very happy with them being driven by a Parasound hca 1206 amp (audio note tube amp will be employed when I move into the new home in a month).

I liked them so much I bought a pair of used ANk/L speakers for 640 for the front mains of the home theatre system. The intent is to hang the ANk speakers off the ceiling for SAF reasons. I think they will still sound wonderful.

I find myself listening to the home theatre in stereo mode with the ANj speakers and not using dolby digital nearly as much. The speech is much clearer with the Audio Note speakers.
