Sigh....not another "Why are there so many XYX's for sale on Audiogon" thread again.

My initial thoughts exactly.

C-Js solid state preamps get less attention than their tubed units but I wanted to point out that I've been using a solid state PF-R preamp for a couple of years in my family room system with great success.  It replaced a high quality passive preamp and I lost little detail and gained a nice robustness to the sound.  Just an excellent unit.
