CJ premier 8 - please share your comments

Mejames - The VTL signatures are not currently evaluated in my available options, but I must say that I have had some VTL (60-60 deluxe and triode 75) and Manley gear (Wave preamp, classic 120). I liked their sonic presenation, but decided to move along since they were quite euphonic in my system by that time.

By the way,Fernando,and,unrelated to your amp issue,the Eclipse speakers are absolutely a fabulous choice.I really believe my friend made a mistake by selling his pair,although he won't admit it.As I'm sure you already know they have SOTA soundstage(especially further out into the room),are very good at detail,and fabulous in timbres, that sound like real music.I don't believe that there are many of today's "hot selling" speakers that outperform them,but,you probably know that already!

yes - Eclipses are deffinitly keepers....

Problem !!!

Some guys at AA are warning me of the retubing process of CJ Premier 8s.

They say it is not just plug new valves and bias them thru their little screw that each valve has, and that I will be crying for such a terrible task.

DO you share this opinions ???

don't agree with that in my experience I purchased 16 matched 6550 GE tubes and the necessary input and driver tubes matched also from ARS tubes just installed them and biased them as usual no problems whatsoever.
