Jay what is you personal opinion about Audio Note?
@@sats87 I mentioned in the video :)
Jay, what's the music at 5:20?
@@gautampinto5887 did you get answer to your question? @jay's Iyagi it would be very grateful if you could reveal which music track is it
Hey little one. You asked me to give you some feedback on the video, so I decided to leave my thoughts here. In short: Bravo! I think this is a FANTASTIC video! It gives me mini-film maker vibes. Great B-roll. Narration. Pacing. Best of all? It contains one element that can never be planned for but is totally a blessing when it happens - a great chemistry with somebody else on camera (Vincent). I love the guys energy and had the pleasure of hearing him play at a couple trade shows. In the Audio Note room, of course. :P. Super talented. Will also give a nod to Audio Note (UK) speakers. Had a pair of AX-TWO's and AN-K's back in the day. Good memories! Would love to see more content like this from you in the future. I think THIS is more of what the industry needs. People having FUN with products that were meant for fun in the first place. Keep rockin'! I'm proud of ya.
You're very arrogant and seem to be rather full of yourself. Here's some news for you: You're not the last word on everything audio related.
Over the last 27 years of being into the high end, I’ve been to all the US audio shows multiple times. I’ve heard many friends’ systems some retailing well over six figures. The one system that stands out in my memory was an Audio Note UK system. The most real, true to life, natural presentation I’ve ever heard.
same experience here
Thank you Jay, Vincent, merci beaucoup! Yes, we definitively want to see Vincent again, superb interview! Jay, you did a great job recording his cello :) Cheers, Janos
Jay! Many thanks for your time! Our passion is one of the best! Musics, emotions, fun AND Korean BBQ! 😂
Next time we go for sushi !
Vincent, I envy you for the joy you create. Thank you for sharing.
Having a musician in to talk about audio gear seems like an obvious idea, but it’s all too rare among the audiophile channels. Thanks for this, and please do it again.
Excellent interview and Audio Note couldn't have chosen a more suitable ambassador! Vincent is an amazing musician. Everytime I have heard Audio Note gear at shows, I felt it made me forget all the typical "audiophile" cues we look for in a component. It has always made me drawn to the music emotionally. Peter Q is a legend...I could hear him speak for hours...
We have used the Audio-note speakers since 1992-- have heard nothing better under $50k-- use high end brtish 845( w/ Jan united tubes )tube amps with a one off marantz tube pre-amp, heavily modded-- modified Sota Star- ( very critical is the SME iV.5 tonearm with magnan wiring, etc -Thank you Jay for your insightful vids- we really enjoy them---PS; we greatly prefer the Audio-note UK products over the Japan Audio-note gear--personal taste
This was a great interview with a really talented man. Totally loved his take on everything from audio components to speaker cables. He said it best when he said that everything in the chain of creating a great sounding system...matters. It all comes down to SYNERGY. Or, how everything plays and interacts as a whole; to create a sound that makes music and instruments sound real and like a live performance. As an audiophile, achieving that kind of sound is what drew me into the hobby 43 years ago. There are still two camps in the audiophile community: one that thinks that sound representation should equal LIVE performance; the other that thinks that the sound representation should be faithful to the recording/recorded medium. I'm of the former because I want my music to sound like I'm actually listening to the band/artist LIVE. If that means measurements that are not flat, or have higher amounts of distortion; I really don't care. It's all about how the system makes me believe that I'm actually listening to a live show and how the instruments should sound in real life.
Absolutely more Audio Note and Vincent. This was a fantastic video. Thank you, Jay and Vincent! He really seems like a great person to be around.
I had a chat with Vincent in the Toronto Audio Fest and he has a very nice guy to talk to. Great attitude, zero arrogance.
Great interview. It is refreshing to see people that are passionate about their craft. Definitely would like to see more of Vincent and Audio Note content.
Terrific interview Jay, my son and I met Vincent at 2021 Toronto Audiofest in October. We had a great time speaking with him about his music and his thoughts on stereo equipment. He was very kind and generous with his time.
'Best vid you have done to date-- would love to hang with this guy-- Have had Audio Note 's speakers since 1994-- wouldn"t sell them for the world-- they kick-- this guy is 500 % correct-- set-up is everything-- Love Peter, he is a an audio character
Hello Jay , Happy to see that you received Vincent for an interview. He is the Audio note guy. he sold me the OTO SE Signature a 10 Watts single ended integrated Amplifier by Audio Note based on EL84 power pentode . I use it with old 2 way JSE .6 (infinite slope crossover) speakers. It sounds fantastic. Looking foreword for those AN-E speakers in a medium futur.
Vincent is the best ambassador at audio note UK ever. He is so passionated. And he knows music. And he loves to drink my whisky to lol.... Vincent. Until next time. Cheers. Miss you here in Denmark. Come over soon.
I’m a big fan of the audio note AN-e’s. I am using a LTA preamp along with a First Watt Sit-3 which have great synergy with the AN-e speakers (which also works very well with a wide range of music)❤
I have audition Audio Note systems multiple times and feel its outstandingly perfect. Of course there are others Pass Labs , AR. Mac. Audio Note is a one of a kind. It draws you in to the music like no other system will.
TAD should be mentioned in this context, too, I think.
Amusing interview with Vincent. Just recently, I went to hear an Audio Note system around AN-E and AN-J speakers, CD-Transport, Dac, turntable, and Integrated amp. What an experience!
I like to call this: The Audio Note Expérience!
This was easily the best video you've ever posted. I really appreciated and enjoyed your interview. Vincent is Amazing. I love what he said about a recording being a moment not the truth. Also, I'm glad that you're ok. Please stay safe.
Okay - NOW .. im envious. you fellas are SO close .. and I've missed out on all this fun.!!!
Fantastic to see you guys together .. Im thrilled to hear these audio impressions. Thank you guys !!!
Jay, outstanding video. I was smiling and laughing throughout the presentation. Vincent was a hoot, an interesting fun guy and a cool Audiophile. Good one.
Great video. Vincent is a character! His music is also beautiful.
I have listened extensively to the Cobra / AN-E combination. I think unbeatable in its price range.
Great video Jay, absolutely enjoyed listening to the the both of you.
Thank You…
The moral of the story...trust your ears and nothing else. Great Video, Great Friend.
Very nice and refreshing review Jay and Vincent. Vive la musique!
Great interview, Jay! As an Audio Note fan I sure want to discover more about their products and Vincent's experiences. If you have the chance, make also an interview with Peter Q. He is a unique character in the high end audio industry.
I love the performance I experienced at the Montreal audio show! Fantastic!
are you the same mr. Paladino we met at the CES 3 years ago in the Audio-note room??
Thank you for this video. I love hearing from musicians that are also audiophiles.
Your coming into your own with your channel!
Great! Great! Great!
Thanks for this one.
Stay well.
Super unique vid! The mysterious world of Audio Note! Peter Snell was a wizard!
These speakers were available in kit form from AN (drivers/board) - now discontinued. I believe the drivers still use foam surround and are noted for needing occasional replacement.
- btw; miss the 'O' out of Cell'O'ist - pr 'Chellist' sp 'Cellist'. (as in Pianist rather than Pian'O'ist)
p.s. the 'stick' is a soundpost in english.
You nailed with this interview. Passion and emotion said it all. Loved this episode.
Love Vincent’s energy. Always enjoyed his music. Awesome video. Thanks Jay!
Very cool video! Love this guy's music. The only Audio Note gear I have ever used is my current tonearm. It is an Audio Note Arm Two/II that I was very fortunate to find at a severe discount as ex-demo product. I will admit I had not used many other tonearms before it on the same turntable. Just a couple by Rega (RB110 and RB330). As soon as I finished setting up the Audio Note Arm Two and sat down to listen to my usual set of records for evaluating new gear I knew something transformed in my setup. I expected some difference in sound but was not prepared for what came. Considering I am using that tonearm with a fairly cheap and "low-end" cartridge I can comfortably say it performs way outside its price bracket (which for me was £600 btw). I can not ever see replacing it with another tonearm unless Audio Note introduce a better model one day. I read some people stating they preferred this same tonearm over their SME V and kept it when comparing. I don't know about that but I do know that I don't feel the need to seek out some $4k tonearm to replace this one anytime soon.
Thanks to this arm I also fell in love with pure silver cables. When constructed right and matched well in a system they really do sound better (more musical) than conventional copper. And at no expense in the bass region. Would be amazing to try out some tube amplifiers by Audio Note in the future, especially after hearing Vincent say that they match well with Triangle speakers :D
Well done. Keep it light and bouncy. Getting away from the heaviness, the specs and a-phile words, into the passion, the fun and emotion. I'll probably never hear an AN system but so much appreciate them and what they aspire to.
Please,please, more Audio note content, with reviews of there speakers and amplifiers.
Such a fascinating interview and conversation. Thank you.
Great gear. Real music for real people that play and listen to it emotionally as it’s meant to be when recorded.
More Vincent Jay! Two passionate music enthusiasts!
This was such a cool video, maybe one of your best. He speaks about music the way I feel about the music. Audiophiles seem to forget it’s supposed to be about the music not the gear. I’m looking at a Techniques real to reel I found it’s kinda expensive but I, and this is me now, I think there’s absolutely nothing that sounds as good as a good recording played on a good real to real. So which one do you own, Technics what? 1500, 1606 1700 two track, four track, which one please? I value your opinion. My wallet tells me I value your opinion too! 😂😂😂
A very enjoyable interview. I have an Audio Note OTO integrated amp with AN-K speakers and AN cables. It is very musical. But, as Jay pointed out, if you are into blasting rock n roll this is not the best system to do so.
The system mentioned below faithfully recreates the sound you hear in a well designed & damped studio - we are strictly vinyl -cd's are for skeet practice (jk) and yes we listen for 12-18 hours at one sitting all the time-so hard to turn it off and harder to leave the room
I've had my E's😀for 23 years still amaze me
Actually, speakers in half space eliminates the rear reflections which eliminates that delay smear. That is one of the reasons, movie theaters (good ones anyway) put a panel all around the speaker behind the screen. Depending on the dispersion of the speakers, over crossing the speaker can smooth out the response. I have done that in some installs before as well. Just make sure you put appropriate absorption/ diffraction at the primary side wall reflection points.
This Vengseng Belangze guy is cool! Love this kinda collabs content, c'est très intéressant messieurs! Kudos!
Vincent seems like a great guy!
Great video as always! Nice to see something different. Would love to see a full review.
Hello Jay, Great video, now that you have wet our appetite, we await a nice review of the AN system with in depth comparison with other sound signatures like Harbeth, SF, and Wilson
Excellent vidéo. You should have a quarterly or even more often with Vincent.
Hi, great video. Can you tell me the music playing starting at 5:27 or so? Thanks.
This also puzzles me since a long time. Experts say the speakers MUST be placed far away from the back wall, for imaging, soundstage, ... Then at Audio Fairs you visit the Audio Note room with their speakers up against the wall, and inevitably they are among the best sounding... :-)
Coolest most engaging hi-fi video I've ever seen! Consider me a convert. I'm buying some of Vincent's music now. Thanks guys!
Many thanks! If you come to any hi-fi shows, I will autograph your purchase!
You won’t regret it, trust me. Vincent is an amazing musician.
Very nice guys. Well done, I hope I can hear this some day. Love Cello music as well.
Thanks Rocko !
i love it i just love it !! move them speakers everywhere !! Jay I been wanting to try Audio note since i 1st read up on the company the engeeners/Desighners really focus on Musicality and their build quality is INSANE ! thanks for the video
JAY and Vincent
Do you have to constantly pop up on everyone else's videos, in the comments section, in a pathetic attempt to increase traffic to your inept channel? It's very annoying.
Great content and my tube power amplifier uses audio note components. Awesome SQ
You guys are having a proper bromance 🥰
What is the sound/music from 5:20?
And Vincent visited Croatia two weeks ago... :)
Vincent and Audionote have a brilliant synergy they both are very engaging, both have integrity and both are care about the music and the beauty of the instrument, not all my any stretch but so much American gear is more about the Wam Bam factor, Shock & Awe if you like. Or maybe likened to compressed digital music compared to uncompressed analogue, one is in your face all the time and the other specifically Audio Note is concerned with the nuances, tone and the dynamic swings. It may sound more polite on first listen but you soon realise which system is reproducing music instead of just sound.
Good job! Fun! By the way, it "cellist" not "celloist". 😉
Love Audio Note. But they are crazy expensive🤣 Loved the match between Franco Serblin Accordos with Audio Note OTO line SE integrated!
Well, the cobra, all integrated amp with DAC, is $6995.00 (CAD). And AudioNote is not higher than any other brands. 😉
Audio Note has a surprisingly wide price range. From affordable (I wouldn’t say cheap) to, yes, extremely expensive and everything in between. Almost everybody can find the right price point for them.
Awesome video Jay! How would you rank this ‘beginner’ AN system compared to the PS Audio setup at the show?
i like your videos...i have a question..I m currently using Audio Note Cobra + Sonus Faber Olimpica Nova III....I recently watched some videos about Sonus Faber Olimpica Nova III, they recommend to use amp which has 300W for this speaker...however, Audio Note Cobra is only 28W per chanel....I am confused...and alot of Class A amp do not have 300W per chanel....what is your opinion in terms of the amp choice for Sonus Faber Olimpica Nova III??
Lyngdorf systems are also done like this with the speakers against the wall but not toed.
What's that tune playing at 5:20 ?
Great, great interview...
You just set him up, let him talk, and would get out of the way!
I'm wondering how the bass on these stack up against the Gershman Grande Avant Gardes.
Also wondering who that cello player was that knew the cello better than Vincent! Man...
It was not a cello player but Peter Qvortrup, the owner of AudioNote.
Jay , do you have a playlist of what you listened to?
Jay, great stuff as usual.
Side bar, any chance you can Vince for a translation of the lyrics for “Spring Commitment” from his collaboration with Anne Bisson, “Conversations?” I have been trying to find them for years. Any assistance would be appreciated. I’d owe you more than I already do now if you succeed.
Terrific interview, Jay.
I would love to see more reviews of Audio Note gear from you!
By the way, do you think subs are still needed with speakers like the AN-E?
Thanks again!
I would say no. But we should try in your environment. Where are you based?
Berlin, Germany 😞 Is there an ambassador like you, Vincent, in EU? Or someone close to that role?
@@giorgiovaloti4129 I am the ambassador worldwide. So you can contact me when I am in Europe. I shall be in Munich hi-fi deluxe for exemple.
@@vincentbelanger5078 oh wow. I would love to have a chat with you and more generally with Audio Note folks. I think the Munich show is sold out, but I hope there will be other occasions. Sending you an email just to exchange contacts and info. Thank you so much!
Glad you are doing well Jay.
Jay what QRD diffusers are you using? They look great 👍👍
Bet it sounds amazing, my type of system
We are awaiting the AN review
Snell is lateral thinking genius, Peter Q maxxed out his basic design (principles)..
It's crazy how much Audio Note speakers look like Snell E series.
They are the snell's but with better drivers and wiring, etc-- night and day difference, but the snell's are quite good--
Thanks
What's the song playing at 5min 22? Wow I love it. They were one of the room that I've enjoy at the mtl audio fest
Can you please tell US the song name from 5:20 ?
Does that room divider/screen to the left actually constitute a 'corner?' What is behind it? Asking because my room is too large to place these in the corners--the speakers would be 18' apart--but I could make some fake corners. I'd think they'd need some mass, though, right?
no only paper I believe
would affect the midbass output.
should be alright with 18' you could ask Peter. I believe will give you a trial period as well
Vincent! Don’t be funny without me - the first one
Look at 32:40, it looks like you are very sad. Music can help the mood, but you are in charge of how you feel.
You must have deep love for music. Thank you. Feel good.
You are so right!🤪
Come to Madagascar. I wonderful francophone country. Music is life.
J’adorerais!
Good edit off the eyes to the woofer.
Next time you see him ask him on making cover photo of "Conversations" with Anne Bison.
I'm sure he'll say: " ...I was thinking - s... she's ruining my bowhair!" ;)
Nice video!
Yes please bring more about audio note maybe a demo? of the setup
Demo through youtube is kinda pointless. Especially the Audionote system with such odd way of setting up ! But feel free to message Vincent for the Audio Note Demo !
When are you coming! I’m in Toronto and would love to here your setup in my place.
Definitely checking out audio note!
Ken Ishwata would setup his speakers with crazy toe in as well.
Yes it does increase depth.
Whens your next date. This stuff is awesome
Snell pissed off a few high end hifi snobs with his speaker design. He used cheap off the shelf drivers, & a cheap resonate box & made them sound great.
Music is just like food. You give 5 people same burger and everyone will want their differently - one will want more ketchup, more hot sauce etc (music = more bass, mid, treble etc). As long as you enjoying it that is what most important.
Great Vid, more please.
I'm not saying this brand of speaker doesn't sound great because I'm sure it does but these sound evaluations/ impressions sure aren't scientific.🤔 Many speakers like JBL take full advantage of this extreme toeing in. No, I don't know about the in the corner trick but again you don't know until you try with other companies products. I wouldn't be surprised if competing brands placed in the same position maybe just maybe also sound fantastic.🤪 The recording quality of the songs you happen to listen to even make my cellphone sound OUTSTANDING 🤔😏😇
Guys what song is being played around 5:30 by Vincent? thnx
Loved this! would love you to review the AN oto phono se signature integrated amp.
Whats the song at 5:35
Great video! Which AN-E model exactly is featured in the video? There are so many models from AN.
AN-ED Hemp
Im thinking about purchasing these speakers. Issue is my room is super large and wide and no way I can place them in the corners
