I would like to start a discussion about what you think is the best sounding CJ Preamp. Just because the manufacturer needs to change to sell more boxes and Magazines need advertising dollars doesn't always mean that the sonics have improved. For example some audiophiles like the older art series over the new GAT Preamps and it's lesser siblings. Would like the informed opinions of those lucky audiophiles who have heard both. I like the old CJ sound but haven't heard the new offerings.
I certainly yield to the more experienced voices here, but I enjoyed the Classic 2, which has been replaced by the Premier 3; both into Premier 11a. This is my first tube system after years of quality SS/MOSFET. For my ears the tubes are a better match, and I think this is ideal within my budget. BTW Mark, thanks for passing on the Premier 3. I love it.
zenblaster,, hamad did my pv 12, sounds like the new classic. he also did my wifes 2300a amp and will be sending him my 2500a after the holidays. well worth the money. will also fix other things he finds as well. as for the pv 10, was a great pre amp in its day and still is. it was what is was at the time, other models just came out, that were better.
