What speakers will you be driving? And what amp are you using now?
thinking of switching from conrad johnson......
trying to decide between pass x250.8 or plinius sb 30, was looking at the cj premier 350 or the McCormack dna 500, but these amps are getting a little long in the tooth. any suggestion and your experience with these two amps would help. and what pre amp would work best with them. since not many preamp companies are left. and any feedback from whilecamaross is very much welcomed......thanks in advance.

sfall, is the sound rolled off as I have heard... ebm, I was thinking about the et3, just had my pv 12 upgraded joeinid, that is what I was thinking, that the tech is a little out dated now, will look into the ps audio and bhk stuff. assoc equip speakers alon 4s and 2s my rotel 965 has had it and now have a nad 565 and Marantz 5005, power amps c/j mf 2500a and 2300a which I just had upgraded, (sounds like a new amp now) preamps are c/j pv 10 and pv 12 (which I just had upgraded as well) cables are tara labs vectors on my wifes system and acoustic zen wow (from dr. zen) on my system. |
Maybe stock there would be notable rollout. Upgrade the coupling caps with cutf v-caps, all resistors and wire in the signal path and replace the diodes, and you might just ask, What rolloff? Oh not to say all the romance is lost but sure a lot more engagement can be had than that opaque vintage cj sound. I too had pv7 and pv5 back in the day. Would have sprung for the et5 but wanted a full functionality pre. If not ignore the above. |
