Conrad Johnson PV10A Mods/upgrades

Bob modded out my CJ MF2250 and it sounded much better. I'm still trying to decide whether or not to send my PV-15 to Bob or to CJ for the cap upgrades. Tough decision. Bob's version will no doubt be superior, but it will cost more as well.

I believe the 10A can be upgraded to a 10B by cj......

I haven't had any work done by Bill Thalmann, so I cannot speak for his work. I have had Bob Backert work on a BAT VK-75SE amp and the results were stunning to say the least. I would highly recommend his work.

i wonder what Bob Backert would do on a GAT?

Lloydelee21,
I would hope that at $20k, there isn't anything that could or should be done to the GAT. :)

Joethekid72,
Years ago I had Bill Thalmann convert my PV-10AL to a 10A by adding the phonostage to the unit. He also upgraded the capacitors and RCA connections and it sounded much better at the frequency extremes and had better clarity as a result.

In communicating with Bill at the time, he said that he knew just where c-j had compromised the design in order to come in at its price point and therefore, where the most cost effective modifications should be made.
