Question about Audio Note E SPe HE
Thanks Jond. I am leaning towards getting LX HE Signature. 
Question about Audio Note E SPe HE
Hi Jond, I actually auditioned the top of the line AN-E Spx Signature. The dealer didn't have the base AN-E SPe HE model. Yes, the Sig. HE costs twice as much as the SPe/HE. AN website also shows a AN-E LX signature model. Wondering what the diffe... 
Harbeth M30.1+Luxman LX-380 & Audio Note AN-E/SPe Oto SE Sig
Thank you Jond, Charles1dad, and acman3.I cannot afford both (AN & Harbeth) now but I hope to save enough to buy a smaller Harbeth system next year. The trouble is I love both sounds and want to be able to experience it in my house. Keeping fi... 
Harbeth M30.1+Luxman LX-380 & Audio Note AN-E/SPe Oto SE Sig
All, Thank you for your participation and suggestions. After thinking through and re-listening I am inclined to choose AN-E/SPe with Oto Phono SE amp. I plan to use this in my main listening area (18' X 22').I will buy Harbeth system for a smaller...

How does it compare with Perfectwave Transport? (which plays redbook only) 
5.1 / 2 Channel
I bought Wyred 4 sound preamp and monos.I am able to use the HT bypass and it works verywell switching between 2 ch and 5 ch.Actually the Aperions are sounding really good with the added amps. Guess I can keep them for some more time. Wf.

Thanks. Will do so.Upgrading speakers ...hmm.. there is a limit on what I can spend now..:) Wf. 
5.1 / 2 Channel
Thanks for the reply and the tip. I will certainly do that. A friend of mine suggested that piping the DAC through AVR may compromise the musicality and suggested I try a dedicated amp with HT bypass. How do I connect a separate 2 ch power amp to ...
