I have a vintage Conrad-Johnson PV11 preamp which I had modified by the company with Teflon caps. I like the sound of it. As a matter of curiosity I’d like opinions as to whether it would be an improvement if I were to replace it with a new CJ model.
It’s entirely possible that the ET 6 will sound better, but the modified PV 11 is pretty clean and definitely does not sound muddled especially as it is paired with a Benchmark AHB2 amplifier.
There does not seem to be a lot of feedback , or reviews in regard to the ET6 available. I am also curious how the ET6 compares to the ET3 and even other vintage CJ preamps.
For what its worth, I own the Classic 2SE and after demoing that and a non SE ET3 in a 50k plus system I thought the Classic with Teflon caps sounded better.
