That is the best audio system presentation and comparison i have seen on YT. Many presenters on YT and hifi shows only play non demanding music (voice + guitar only) to hide the weakness of the system. Here the drum track tells everything about dynamics and timing. The antique desk is beautiful. Well done!
Thank you for watching and your kind comment ;-)
I own a pair of the original AN Ks and they're truly great speakers.
Дуже гарно.хотілось більше знати про цю аккустіка
Love those AN-Js! Thanks for the demo!
Thanks for watching!
Very good sound of Audio note.
Very helpful video! Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
This is awesome! I loved it.
Thank you for watching!
For classical these guys are great.
I have been waiting for someone to make this video for like 6 months! 🤩
Yes, I, too, at one time could not find such a comparison, so when the opportunity arose, I recorded this video 🙂
@@Audio-Salon Would you consider making a longer form comparison video with different types of music? Rock, jazz, etc?
@@estidog I don't know where to get high-quality varied music )
CZcams blocked my tracks for copyright infringement... For now, I'm content with only these tracks. Maybe later I will solve this problem )
@@Audio-Salon crazy. do they block it or just demonetise the video?
I don't get monetized for my videos. But I receive messages from CZcams that I have violated copyright and my video will be blocked in some countries.
Thanks for the effort
Thank you for watching!
I love the an k. I'm considering buying a pair at the moment. However the ones I've been looking at have a different finish to the ones shown here but still an awesome looking and sounding speakers👍
The AN-K has that (bright) American sound while the AN-J has that (warm) British sound at least to these trusted ears...🎉
I wouild live with the J .................
Yes!
I thought I was the only one who associated a “bright” sound with American brand speakers 🤔🤔🤔. I totally agree!!!
Unthinking that what you are earing is the difference In scale due to cabinet size , hence that the K comes as A more lean blalanced speaker , and the J the fuller one , and thus the one with more scale …
american sound does not exist neither does british sound, one has a bigger box thus makes more bass thats it. The broader the range the best, as long as details are preserved and this is what AN is very good at. So if you can and within the limitations of your room, pick-up up the biggest AN you can ie AN E
Good Job!
Thanks!
AN-J is a real magic 🙏🙏🙏
This was very well done. Thanks.
Thank you for watching!
I slightly preferred the K's in this comparison, a little cleaner perhaps in the upper registers. Heard the J hemps at shows and they sound beautiful particularly with P2 SE or Soro SE.
The cobra / ank sound reminds me of the audio innovations / snell K sound
Love the content. Consider showcasing a larger variety of music genres in the future.
That is a problem... since CZcams bans videos for copyright infringement... I don't know where to get high-quality varied music... For now, I'm content with only these tracks. Thank you for watching!
My favourite of Peter Snell’s designs was the Type C. Wonder why AN doesn’t replicate the Type C or Type A.
Any chance of doing a new K/J comparison with more examples?
I'm providing this advice as I can only go by what I see in the video. This is for all noobs...
1. When doing a/b testing of speakers you must only use one speaker placed at center of sidewall dimensions (best if positioned using 1.6:1 ratio).
a. put a mark on tape at floor to insure same position
2. place you listening chair (no high back as the back should not be higher than your shoulders) about 3-4 feet away.
Note: there can be no speakers, gear, furniture (no obstructions) between the back wall, you and the speaker). You mast also gain match using a SPL and spectrum analyzer) this is critical even if both speakers have same impedance and sensitivity.
Love that sound.
Please tell me, how is listening on low volumes? Is it possible or you have to listen loud to get full potential? Thank you
Both pairs of speakers sound very good at low volume. That's how I listen to this system.
K user here, superlative speaker at low (55-60db in-room) volume, i've heard nothing that comes close to it, boundary sited sealed box with a big driver might be a throwback but it totally works
Very useful comparison! Which version of the Bartered Bride you played? Thank you
The Bartered Bride - George Szell Cleveland Orchestra. Thank you for watching!
Thank you
woooooooooooooow
Very good comparison. What is The viner of th an-j
it is an olive wood veneer. Thanks.
Thanks for the comparison. 👍The AN-J/Lx speakers sound far more natural and pleasing (at least for my ears).
Thank you for watching!
My room size is 2.5x4.5m= 11 square meters. I have to listen low volume because of neighbors.What would your suggestion AN-J or AN-K for me?
I would use AN-K speakers if I were you. They sound great in a small room.
Hi
What is the distance of the speakers. Can it be near or mid field 1,5 to 2 meters?
Thx
The distance between the center lines of the speakers is 2.5 meters.
Great comparison! In my opinion the AN-K has more body in the base segement.
Thank you for watching!
You do excellent recordings, unfortunately it shows up poor playback.
That's amazing, the music started playing before
the Amp and CD Player was switched on.
Very clever technology
Yes, you are correct... 🙂If you pay closer attention you can hear that the music began to play even before the CD player was turned on... 🙂
@@Audio-Salon Yes, If you pay closer attention that's what I said in the comment.
@@simonirvine1628 if you pay even closer attention, you will see that that comment was posted even before the video was uploaded.
Nice to see you back! Pls use a digital source that sounds analogue😊
You are funny 😅 How can you judge the analog quality of a digital record, that is possibly analog converted by your phone??? 😜
By the way, the DAC in the Cobra is pretty analog sounding, compared to most DAC...
AN K in this room have better balance .
Funny years ago when this speaker was owned by Peter Snell I remember hearing the massive A's with audionote amps bigger was usually better. Then Audionote and Audio Innovations (which Peter Qvortrup came from) and Guy Sargent, came to my town and side by side in different room was the oto then £8-9K Snell J's and the third audio mono's pre production around the same price and Snell k's. Which sounded better Audio Note or Audio Innovations....GUESS 🙂
Like 100,000 dollars? 😂
In that smallish room with low hanging ceilings I prefer the sound of the AN-K. It's more balanced. The AN-J's bass just sounds too bloated and overpowering.
The room and positioning means the sound and system is probably giving 50% of its actual capability. If theres one thing i know its that speakers and room corners dont mix. Add that slope roof and its good bye soundstage and good frequency response. More money than sense on show yet again im afraid!
Everyone knows that Audio Note acoustic systems are designed to be located in the corners of the room.
Your rack is antiquated🙈.
