Conrad Johnson Premier 10

Hi
I just picked up a CJ Premier 10 tube preamp in perfect cosmetic shape (under all the grime). Needs some work as controls are v scratchy and tubes need replacing, but does anybody have experience with this amp? Also, if I want to get a CJ power amp of similar vintage (early 90's I believe) what model should I try (either tube or s/state is OK)?
Thanks

Your amp choice will depend your speakers, room, desired volume and sonic tastes.

You can pretty much use any of them. The older Quad ESL 63's
were often paired with c-j tube mono amps. I don't know from personal experience but many here seem to like tubes and c-j's with Spendors as well. You might want to contact c-j. They have a very good reputation for customer service. I use c-j solid state stuff. c-j's solid state gear is quite tube friendly. Not that I think you'll need it, but, good luck.
