Just wanted to post a little update to my previously experience with spkr kit 03.
I posted it under Pauls review since I'm not able to post something in my own review since its too old ! ?

This is what I wrote there:
I'm not able to post a follow up to my Speaker kit 03 review and I also got told by the Asylum that it can't be deleted ? Strange....
So then I just post a note here instead and hope nobody take my review too serious regarding my buts about bass impact.I wanted my review deleted, since I just bought spkr kit 03 with hemp woofer/mid and Black Gate caps,and are hearing some of the coolest bass I have heard from a hifi-set-up.I have reorganised my livingroom where the speakers are,and I can say that I haven't heard what they are capable of before.I don't think things are perfect now either,because I know my somewhat soft walls and floor suck up some energy as well.
I'm not even going to try more descriptions of the speakers at this point,because the more I learn the more I see how extremely difficult it is to describe 1 component in a complex chain of many many factors.
I can say the speaker sound like this and that,but later down the road I can see that,"no,that was my room,or that was one wrong cap in the preamp" aso.
Right now I'm just so impressed by how good some recordings of snaredrums are sounding,since I often feel that hifi equipment usually make those sound very thin and without energy in the important lower mids to upper bass region.And basslines are now often very real sounding,with very good defintion and balance when the bassist move from low notes to higher notes,I can hear how well I like good old Fender Jazbbasses aso.Its tuneful,warm,very good definition and the right energy in the room.I play both bass and drums so I hear these things live almost on a daily basis.Wow,I would like to hear the AN E Sogon when this is some of what a spkr kit 03 can do!!!
All I can say is that I'm mighty impressed by this speaker,because of its ability to communicate MUSIC!
So thank you Audio Note guys! ,Peter Q,Andy and the rest of the team,and a thank to Peter Snell probably is ok in this regard too ! :-)
And thanks to Brian as well for continuing the AN kit business!Best,
Rune
