Conrad Johnson and Herron comparisons


I find very little when attempting to gauge qualitative, subjective view points, I'm sure there are those who've sampled preamps from both these quality houses - please share...

i recall you were having some trouble getting herron to do the upgrade from the prior version unit you had - did you eventually talk him into it, or you just bought a separate upgraded unit?

curious to know what is the nature of the upgrade to the rev 3 unit from the prior one, and whether you would say there is a real difference in sq between a and b...
CJ GAT is very special, if the other models take from it then they must be very good
@jjss49 Ive purchased a rev3, and plan to post my subjective views on the differences soon, complete with internal pics to show any internal differences (if any obvious ones can be noted). Ive sent a few emails to Mr Herron about the upgrade situation, and since that was a no go, I ended up buying an upgraded unit. I was quite happy with the un revised VTSP3a's sound, but curiosity and the upgrade itch got the better of me.
I plan to continue to listen to the units (whilst the one I have on sale is still in my hands) with a wide range of music, using vinyl and digital formats. I find comparisons easier with well mastered CD's.
