I have one that was heavily used 99-08 and then not used at all, recently brought it back from retirement and it sounds great, no noticeable degradation in quality from its first tour of duty.
I have it running (balance XLR) into a Classe CA-400, which is powering two Thiel CS 7.2s, it sounds very neutral and quiet. The whole system is fantastic, especially the silence that this Amp offers. I've tried a McIntoch MA6900 in place of the CP 60 and I much prefer the Classe for its purity, neutrality.
On side note, Currently looking for a more modern (balanced) DAC to use as input to the CP-60. I used to run a Classe DAC-1 as the primary input but that device has crapped out, perhaps not worth repairing given its age.
Considering Schiit Gungnir or (perhaps) Yggdrasil, but not sure how they will sound when paired with Classe, guessing probably good given the apparent neutrality of the CP-60. Anyone had any experience using a more modern DAC with the CP 60?
Summary: Very solid piece of equipment, definitely worth revisiting if you have a chance.
