As way of an update, my Batpure Super Tweeters arrived from Japan earlier in the week, so tonight it was time to get creative using some of the suggestions provided earlier in this thread and using the additional materials sourced from eBay below: 2 x small wooden boxes 2 x 4mm binding postsThe super tweeter and terminal posts are wired internally using Belden 9497 and the same cable links the rear of the box with the +/- on my AN-E's... as for how they sound, it early days...

I'm glad to report that The Right One is now back as my record cleaning liquid of choice (via MCRU) and its really good to have it available again

I agree Martin, aesthetically, they look nothing special, but their small footprint and growing reputation means that they are definitely worth a try... and I'm fairly sure that SOtM stands for Sound of the Music

The shooster cost 240 to power it and hopefully works well from a battery Many thanks John... I'm not a great lover of Roon (irrespective of its cost) so still use jRiver, but I'd investigate it again should I choose the SOtM route. I'm viewing some speakers on Friday, so a short term decision as to whether I ditch my Korus server for the SOtM solution will be dictated by how much better these speakers are than my AN-E's...

I've been looking at these too, as well as the more expensive SOtM 200ultra, but the latter is just a touch too expensive, especially once you factor in the SOtM sPS500 PSU too (£1750 for both). I note SOtM have a PSU for the SOtM200, so both can currently be sourced for around £838... what is the tablet interface like John?

That's the plan Kevin... given what I've read here, I'll have a play with their position before deciding on how/what to fit them too...

Many thanks again Brian... I've got a couple of weeks before my super-tweeters arrived from Japan, so that'll should give me more than enough time to sort out what I need

Cheers Martin... if I could justify keeping her, she'd be going nowhere, but I hate to have kit sitting about collecting dust, so somebody is in for a treat

At no more than £40 delivered from the land of the rising sun, it seems silly for me to not try these with my AN-E's... brian2957 (Hi Brian ) do you have a photo of them fitted to the little boxes you sourced from The Works? The dreaded Photobucket ransom image appears in your previous post

Many thanks chaps... appears to be very quiet on the selling front, but luckily, I'm not in any hurry to sell
As with my LDR pre available here, I'd be happy to consider swaps for a high quality XLR to XLR Balanced pair of cables (to connect a Primare CDP to an Accuphase amp) with the balance in cash either way if you have something available worth more or less than the £325.
I'd also consider a decent dedicated CD transport with XLR balanced outputs, again with cash for anything worth more than £325
