Thanks Czbbcl.I should point out that I have a Bryston 14 BST which is here to stay.Its currently mated with an ARC LS2B.The LS 2B is a superb preamp(I've paid less than $ 300 net)but I miss the remote.I am in love with the tube ss combination.Among the options that I have been exploring is the CJ PV 14L.Hence would appreciate any view/experiences of the CJ combined with a ss power amp.A home demo would have clinched the issue but it is not going to happen for sometime.
Thanks.
