Conrad Johnson Premier 12 tube monos


Has anyone heard these and/or compared to any other 6550-based amps of similar power (140 watts) range?

The Atma-Sphere M-60 MkIII would be an outstanding match with your Coincident Victories, as Jtimothya suggests. Authority in the bass with excellent resolution and quickness, plus a midrange timbral accuracy that few other tube amps match. Don't let the 60w rating fool you - with a 14ohm load, this OTL will exercise more control and deliver more power into the Coincidents than other nominally higher powered amps, and you can't beat the Atma-Sphere's transparency, resolution and harmonic truthfulness.

Get yourself a Music Reference RM200, unless you want the overly warm sound of the CJ 12's... Plus the Music Reference is fully balanced design. The Music Reference is more transparent than the ARC VT100 MkIII and way cheaper to retube, plus you can try Kt88's or Kt90's to take it even a step further depending on what you like and system synergy.
re: Atma-sphere- concerned about heat and hot tubes exposed (have 2-yr old running around in that same room). Dopogue- in fact, have tried 845's before in the system, and liked them very much. A local guy has a set of J.C Verdier 845 monoblocks that I hear are very good...
Cyto- Music Reference?? Don't really know them, but will look into it- thanks again everyone for the great responses!
You might want to audition the PrimaLuna KT-88 monos.I would definitely upgrade the input and driver tubes,along with an after-market PC.Check their audition policy,don't know if there is a re-stock charge.For $2700,the other upgrades might leave some leftover cash for music.
