I like mine. Dealer said for $1700 folks would rather go straight CJ. I got mine for $999.00 Spankin' new to replace an Acurus A-250.It's not as forward and has, I think, great detail, is not fatiguing, has dual mono design,sounds good and was a heck of a deal. I think price point was the issue.Am using with Melos 111B, Theta transport, Wadia converter, Paradigm Ref.100's and Analysis Plus Oval 9 speaker cable. Amazes me every day.
CJ Sonographe SA-400 now discontinued Any good?
Conrad-Johnson Amps in general seem to be highly regarded. But I have seen this amp (brand new) selling for nearly half its retail price of $1700 with little or no interest. Is this amp an undiscovered gem or a black sheep in the CJ family. What would you recommend for a solid state amp in the $2000 dollar range to drive a pair of Paradigm Studio 60's?
