Conrad Johnson Officially Transfers ownership

According to Audio Beat August 17 article, Jeff Fischel is now the owner of CJ, Jeff has been w/the company since the late 80's. Good to see they din't sell to outside interests. Hate to have another Thiel car crash. Also some new gear is on the way. A new ET 7  preamp and a high end Headphone preamp are on the way in 2018. If you look at the current CJ website the ET 5 isn't listed as a current preamp but is in the vintage category. Wonder if the ET 5 is gone??

CJ ET5 and ET7 are very close in sound as they only really changed the high voltage power supply.I was told if you have ET5 the big sound improvement is going to the GAT 2 i am very happy with the sound of the ET5 in my high resolution system.CJ makes great stuff with very high sound quality.Enjoy.
