your experience with mod or upgrade companies.....


i called c/j and talked with jeff, found out that cj now does upgrades for some of their equipment. my pv12 would be about 900.00 four just 5 caps. that seems a little high for just that amount of work. what other compy that you know of is doing this, i know a while back i heard about different ones, but you dont hear to much now. there was a group of indian guys i talked with a while back that seem to do a lot more for at lot less, but i forgot the name of them.. please give me your input, as always is appreciated.......

If you get something modded by someone with a rep you're usually OK as far as resale. I would definitely go with someone who has a rep.

I beg to differ, I now its not the premiere line but its not that bad of an amp.............."

I never said it was a bad preamp. The models that came after the PV-12 were a lot better, both the Premier and regular models. Just replacing the caps will not get you there. I know my recommendations are not the same as most of the other posters. But you did ask for advice, and I've owned the PV-12 when it was current and compared with several other CJ preamps. Its just my honest opinion.

"Great Northern Sound was the best but there gone now good luck with the others."

Could not agree more. Steve and company turned my Wadia 861se player into a masterpiece.
zd542.. your advise may have been the best... you told me just what i needed to know. i didnt think just changing caps would be enough..thinking more toward getting new amp all together..
