    I have ordering TT3 with PSU1, Arm Three, Io II and AN-S8. Getting one full AN source system. Of course it is not best what can buy, but still I'll waiting quite a lot of performance to this analog front end.

    Do you also use something (more than just bluetack) between the stands and the speakers?

    SoundCare Superspikes under my K stands- you get further isolation and make the speakers a doddle to move.:D

    I hope you realize we will require photographic evidence of your new system. ;)

    Let's hope they do as much for your sound as they did for my Verity Fidelio speakers in my old apartment. A hifi buddy of mine thought that I had gotten a new amp!

    fun little comparison with some friends of the JINRO integrated vs the M3 CD Balanced w / Conqueror Silver Signature. Both running into the M5 RIAA and TT2 D, ARM 2 v II with IO 1, AN-S5 and the CD 4.1x for the shinny things.

    life is very good indeed :)

    Around 100 hours on the Audio Note 4300E. Beginning to smooth out.

    That said, I’ve swapped 6SN7 for the third time and now have Sylvania 5692 brown base installed. RCA 5692 red base were not a good combo...at least thus far.

    Red base RCA octals are dull as dishwater. If you want brighter, try (don't tell anyone) some Russian 6SN7's.

    LOL. Red base 5692 are anything but dull in my system.

    I agree re: Russian 6SN7. They’ve been my go-to for a year or so, but still a little too aggressive with the new 4300E. Maybe I will re-visit them in a month.

    At this point, I don’t want brighter. I want warmer. It’s a work in progress until the 4300E settle in.

    OK, I didn't get that, sorry. Red Base tubes in any of my gear just kill dynamics, everything. I really hate 'em. That being said, The regular old RCA 6SN7 is fine, as is the GE (which might be also made by RCA, but you know all this..)
