c-j technical questions


Does anyone know of any tests that show the power out-put of conrad-johnson's solid state power amplifiers into a 4 Ohm load. I'm particularly interested in the 2300, 2300A, 2500 and 2500A amplifiers. I'm also interested to know what the out-put impedance range preceding these amplifiers should be.

Hi Unsound, Stereophile reviewed and tested the mf2500. I'm pretty sure that they test 4 and 2 ohm loads, as well as 8 ohm loads. It's all part of thier normal bench tests that they do on a lot of reviewed equipment. If you go to Stereophile's web site, you should be able to pull up thier review of the mf2500 at no cost. The mf2500 is a very nice and musical amp. Best of luck. Stan
Hi Unsound, It's been about six months since I've been to Stereophile's web site. I visited it today and they changed the look of it. Also, you can't access as many reviews as you used to be able to--(but I did count 72 solid state amp reviews that are offered for free)--unfortunately the cj mf2500 wasn't one of them anymore. Sorry. I have read the review and it does have the information that you're looking for. Good Luck. Stan
Unsound, I'm glad that you received your copy of the Stereophile test. The mf2500a amp is a powerhouse for a 250 watt amp- -( NOTE LOL- the mf2500 is 240 wpc). I was using a MF2500a, until I bought a Jeff Rowland 302 amp. The Jeff Rowland is a 300 watt amp @ 8 ohms and I have to set my preamp volume higher for the Rowland than I did for the CJ MF2500a to get the same level of loudness. I guess the Rowland doesn't double down as much. I hope that you found everything that you were looking for. Best wishes. Stan
