Anyone using Nuforce Ref 9 Mono Blocks?

I have been following the Nuforce threads with great interest, reading that they can slay amps costing up to $10K. Has anyone compared the 9.02 to the c-j Prem 350?

Thanks!*>)

I think I'm sold on the NuForce amps but do I upgrade my amps first or my CD player?

They say you should always start with the source.

Who's "they"?

I, for one, think your upgrades should move upstream.

For laughs I tried a pair of the Nuforce 8s. It turned out everyone was laughing but me. Yes the interference can be eliminated for FM by using a coax cable connected to your fm tuner.

"They" are not always right!

How can you judge the source if you can't hear it? If you get the speaker/room/amplifier thing right, then you are in a good position to make judgement calls on the preamp, source, cables and other tweaks.
