Thank you for watching! ;-)

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

The small device is a Samsung SSD disk, I store my music there. The cable I use is AN brown PALLAS II. Thank you!

Yes, the Cobra amplifier work beautifully with any music genre. I will try to demonstrate it in a future video. :-) Thanks you!

Thanks!

EU retail price: Cobra amplifier- around 5000 EUR, AN-K-LX Loudspeakers- 4500EUR. Plus cables and other add ons...Thank you!

Sound coming in via the internet. You judge the sound, amazing!

A little later I will try to post a comparison video between Oto SE Sign. and Cobra. Oto SE Signature has a more refined and delicate sound. Classical music, jazz, solo instrumental sounds better on Oto SE. Rock music in my opinion is better on Cobra amplifier. Oto also has a fairly high-level built-in phono amplifier, if that matters to you. But having two amplifiers in one room, for some reason I listen to Cobra more .. a very convenient amplifier to use :) Thank you!

@@Audio-Salon thank you. Look forward to it. Dealer in my country also mentioned cobra as an real alternative to the OTO line se sig as I have non audio note speakers. Coincident pure reference speakers and lampizator L4 dac. I had an instinctive thought that the Soro Se Sig Line using 6l6 tubes would be great for my application but soro sig is not as popular as the rest, hence few opinions. But it was mentioned strongly as the sleeper in the AN range in another article. Thanks

I use one factory made 2.5M B-B AN-LEXUS LX STEREO BI-WIRED cable set. Thanks.

Thanks!

All our dreams come true sooner or later! ;-)

Yes, the hum of the transformer is heard more strongly on the thin wooden surface of an old wooden dresser. But the amplifier sounds much better on this surface. This noise doesn't bother me at all. It is the same as on my Oto Phono Signature amplifier. On a hifi rack, the hum is less noticeable, but the sound of the amplifier is more sterile. There is even less rumble on the marble slab, but the sound becomes completely unacceptable for me ...

@@Audio-Salon Um.. hum from a transformer 'manufacturer" (audio note)? Not what I'd accept!

@@nickk6109 yes I'm surprised, would have thought at this price range they would have dampened and isolated the transformer sufficiently. Have to admit, british built doesn't mean high quality.. I've had similar issues with hum from REGA products.

@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669 no hum from my McIntosh Mc275.

@@lukedermott1589 👍👍👍

I'm in Europe and I bought the AN-K speakers here.

Just an odd form factor from AN UK.

Hello, Maroon - Fabien Tell, Growing Tall - Etienne Rousse. Thanks

Full body but dry sound. Very agricultural look even for an entry level amp from AN. With competitions from likes of Line Magnetic and Cary, AN needs to raise the bar a bit.

It's hard to give a definite answer. They are different, but each has its own advantages. For home use, I use Cobra. Within a month, I will make a comparative video. Thanks!

Ha! I looked through the comments to see if anyone was going to comment on this. Maybe it's just me but I don't touch tubes with bare hands.

Only when hot, of course. Otherwise it does not matter.

The Cobra amplifier is positioned by Audio Note as an entry level. I don't think it's appropriate to compare it to a Ferrari. Besides, Audio Note has never supplied NOS valves for output stages of amplifiers of this level. If desired, of course, you can buy a matched quartet of EL34 NOS valves. (although for about 10% of the cost of the amplifier itself)

Czemu tragedia.
