The AN-K is a speaker I’ve been guilty of overlooking for far too long. Getting acquainted with the latest version shows that these are now a seriously good speaker and one that are especially well suited to the average small listening room (circa 25 square metre, for example) that we tend to have in the UK. They are easy to place, ideally relatively close to room boundaries, and the sealed box design works with the rooms walls to nicely extend the bass without risking over exciting  the rooms own resonance's.

The large 8” paper cones bass/mid driver makes them relatively efficient and easy to drive with almost any quality amplifier (they’re great with the 7 or so watts from most 300B amplifiers and upwards). There are two cabinet levels available, the entry level AN-D features a Chipboard/mdf hybrid cabinet and a black ash real wood veneer. The rest of the range are in cabinets made from high quality Russian plywood with exceptionally high quality veneers (satin finished as standard with high gloss as an option, except for the top version which comes with the high gloss included in the price).

The sound is very natural, with a superb midband and they simply seem to ‘get out of the way’ that only really well engineered and evolved speakers can - the integration top to bottom is exemplary (as with all the top Audio Note loudspeakers), they are fast and dynamic and simply hugely enjoyable to listen to.
