CJ Iron Vintage question


Greetings
I have lately been smitten with Vintage tube amps like Eicos and H.H Scotts of the 50's and 60's.

I am wondering if anyone can tell me if the iron in older CJ gear is as good as these vintage treasures? CJ MV-? (el34 based amps)

Thanks!

There's also a master builder named Jim Nicholls who does something similar. I have one of his hand-made el-34 amps, but this one is built from scratch.
While those vintage amps give you dynamics and musicality, how do they compare with ARC or current amps in regard to soundstage.
Here's a link to the full process of Sam's work and a review I did some time ago. This is the amp he built for me that replaced my BAT VK-5i/CJ Premier 11a combo.

Remember, that I am somewhat affiliated with Sam and Steve at this time, but I am biased to Sam's amps as a customer.
