| Suggestion for Amp to 2 ohm loads? I drive a pair of Thiel 3.6s, that are pretty inefficient and are said to go down to around 2 ohms, with a Conrad Johnson MF2500. | |
| Best CD Player under 2k ? I would look seriously at the Cary 303/200 for standard redbook or if you want SACD capability, and I think you should seriously consider it, the sony xa777es(new at odde brothers) multichannel or scd777es(used) two channel. The high resolution fo... | |
| Tubelike solid state: Ayre Vs Aleph The Conrad Johnson MF 2500A (IMO) comes about as close to tube as you are going to get with a ss amp. I hear CJ has some new premiere ss amps coming out soon, if not already available, not sure how they will compare to tube. I have heard that Pass... | |
| Audio Research has the Best Customer Service Conrad Johnson also provides outstanding customer service and their products are exemplary. | |

| Sony SCDXA777ES vs Sony SCD1 ? I have discussed this topic with several modders and retailers while some prefered the xa most agreed the scd-1 was the better player for two channel; better parts and simpler circuit. However, in the end it is personnel preference and the size of... | |
| Sony SCDXA777ES vs Sony SCD1 ? The SCD-1 is better on both redbook and scad handsdown. The scd-1 was constructed as a statement piece and as such is untouchable by sonys lower level players. And is even untouchable by many esoteric interpolation cd players.However if you want m... | |
| Quality of Sony SACD players as CD transports I would just buy the scd-1 while you still can and enjoy it. It is outstanding for both redbook and sacd. | |
| Still Freaking Out Over Tube Noise Why don't you contact CJ? Maybee there is aproblem with your unit or you could buy a pair of tubes from them.Chuck | |
| Solid state amps under 1000 I would go with the CJ it would be a wonderful accompaniment to your pv10. I have an MF2500 with a premiere 16ls2 and the combination is outstanding huge soundstage and 3 dimensional. The MF2500 runs, slightly warm to the touch, and drives my Thie... | |
| difference between Sony SCD 1 and SCD 777ES The SCD-1 has two power supplies and balanced outputs.Yes Glenn SACD is outstanding. I do not know what your other components are but I just received my scd-1 about a week ago and I am amazed at the realizm of SACD; at least at this price point. I... | |
| Best power for 10,000 Used pass labs X600 monoblocks or new X350. There are a couple of pair available on this site.Chuck | |
| what preamp to acompany my conrad johnson mv55? I would recommend PV10B or PV12 also agree with above suggestion to stretch and get a premier 14(used). The 14 would be an outstanding combination. | |
| Which Amp Would You Buy I would suggest cj mf2250 used. |
