No probs - be interested to know how you get on.
Hello and Happy New year to you all. So just to make an update. I have ended up just rebooting the whole system and it works wonderful. Maybe not Audio Note but very close to the mellow and magical sound with authority I was looking for.
I got 2 mono blocks on KT120 150W each, changed my PreAmp to Schiit Freya S, and replaced my speakers with Dynaudio Excite X44.
The morale of the story, sometimes we need to recycle everything to get what we want lol
A lot of thanks to everyone giving directions!
