Hi peeps,
Update on the CJ - It is now for sale, the idea of an upgrade seemed to to hit a wall of negativity from every angle, Jeff at CJ refused to reply to all my emails on upgrading or giving schematic : s I got in touch with 2 audio engineers to perform the upgrade, neither were interested or thought it a good idea. And what a colossal blessing this is was!
I just bought a modified Supratek Chardonnay pre, modded for 7193 tubes, Jupiter coupling caps, Lundhal transformers, Mundorf S/G/O in power etc and it rock the **** out of any other pre i have had in my system and many i have heard costing far more, in far better systems, i have never heard the stock so i cannot say if that is as good but the one is incredible!
Happy ending!! : )
Cheers
