Coincident Linestage vs CJ CT5 or Allnic L-3000

I currently own a Conrad Johnson CT5 but would like to upgrade and move to a preamp with XLR in/out. I have tested the Allnic L-3000 which I find very intersting, and I am also interested in the Coincident Statement linestage. Has anybody compared the Coincident to the CT5 or the Allnic?

There's a new remote control version CSL available now in addition to the standard CSL-TVC. I do fine without a remote control and don't miss them. I stay in decent shape training for the 200 and 400 meter sprints for Master's track and senior Olympic track meets.

Charles...the 400m? I hated that length, vomit-inducing, really. I was forced to run it in HS. More power to you, sir!

I'm not really interested in the remote version primarily because I think the TVC is likely better sounding. No desire to go backward, even if just a little.

Jordan,
I've gotten used to this event but yes the lactic acid pain does kick in.
Israel says there's only a "slight" loss of SQ with the remote control version.

Do have a source for the 1:1 WE 101D tubes if anyone is interested. Unfortunately the price is in the same ball park as discussed.
