With a 41" long cabinet, and driver at .349 down that puts the driver at around ~36" by my calcs, so just about perfect. Out of curiosity what is the tweeter height of your ANs in their current setup?

I've also got 604s in ~11cu.ft cabinets, and the same amp, great combo. I believe 250k is the input impedance, not sure on exact output impedance as it's a SEP design and would depend on Shindo's implementation (feedback, opt, etc), could be worth sending an email to check. I have been meaning to for a while just not got 'round to it
Omodo - my listening room also doubles as our family room, so not ideal circumstances and seating. For critical listening, I use a dining room chair in LP1, which puts my ear at ~45 inches from the floor. LP2 is in a dining room chair as well.

The AN tweeter sits at ~41 in from the floor. The base of the bookshelf cabinet I am constructing is 9 in above the floor, and I have the AN speakers on a pull-out shelf 3 inches tall - in effect a 9+3=12 in stand for the speakers.

I am thrilled to hear the 604s are a good match for the Cortese - what model 604 are you using? 8 or 16 ohm? Any tips for success?
