Do you like chocolate or vanilla? This is a very personal thing but I think you would be happier in the long run with ARC because it's more revealing and somewhat more truthful but I've had CJ and it's a stellar product, sooooo musical and satisfying. Good luck!
BAT VK50SE vs CJ 16LS vs ARC 25mrk II/Ref2
I'm thinking to upgrade my pre-amp from ARC LS2 to a better remote control pre-amp. What is best driving a tube amp (Wolcott) and SoundLab speakers? Is there big difference between ARC ref2 and ARC ref2mrk2? Thanks for any input.
