Art Dudley's Audio Note AN-E SPe He Speakers


Has anyone elso heard these speakers that Art favorably reviewed in August's Stereophile and what are your impressions?
aronsss
I, too, would like to hear them. Art sure likes them, although he was a lowther freak for a while. Glory, look to the follow-up Art did in the august issue, those are the E/SPe's. My friends are telling me they're polite, with a much more detached soundstage than the shahinian arcs i'm using now. I love the arcs, just checking to see if either the AN spe/he's or harbeth hls5's would be a step up. I hope to make it to RMAF, sounds like lots to hear.
>AN will have their high end gear at RMAF.

Last year they showed with relatively modest stuff. The year before, it was all super pricey. The house sound is consistent, though, and I liked last year's modest system enough (as much as the year before, actually) to convince me that AN could work for me. Unfortunately, I can't accommodate corner placement.
shahians rule if your tastes run to big music(orhestra etc)....the AN's won't be a step up
The Aug. issue has a review of AN E/SPe HE in it? It's not even Aug. yet. You guys are one up on me.

Off to B&N to read up on my next AN speaker I will buy, but first some lucky member has to buy my AN J/SPe speakers.

As usual Footsurg's speakers/gear will "rocket past" my new E/SPe HE speakers. =8^)
Glory,

My comments stem strictly from direct listening to both speakers on all AN gear. No malice intended! I have never had a pair of SPe/HE's in my home or in my system, and all my listening on them was done in the imperfect enviorment of RFAF. That I must admit, but I do remember well the character of speakers because I intended to buy a pair until a pair of LX Signatures crossed my path! That should tell you that I am quite fond of the SPe/HE indeed!
