Shindo Amplifiers and Audio Note Loudspeakers?

I am concerned about the scarcity of the F2a tube used in the Cortese. A Google search turns up no results when searching for suppliers of these tubes, and I'm not sure I want to be locked into only one supplier (Shindo).

Just my personal take on it.

I am using Audio Note SPe HE speakers with a Shindo Masseto preamp and Don Garbers fi WE300B Monoblocks and am very happy with the results.
Talk to Jonathan Halpern at Tone Imports if you require any information on Shindo he is a really good guy and very well informed.
You do need to site the AN-E's in the corner for the best presentation - I could not find an alternative sensitive and detailed speaker that kicks like the AN-E.

what about the Montrachet? uses EL84s which are common.

Sure, the Montrachet is an option, as are the other Shindo EL84 and 300B amps, but thus far no Audio Note speaker owners have reported using them.

Shocking news! In the latest Stereophile he swaps his ANs for some Wilsons and he actually likes them! Lordy, what has this world come to?
