the triode amps are unsung heroes in the us. super clean and transparent sound that is valued by the asian audiophile market. i love them but not for everybody.
pairing with complementary speakers is a must.
Conrad Johnson Premier 8 / Triode TRX2
I’ve got an opportunity to purchase a set of Conrad Johnson Premier 8 monoblocks from a good friend - and possibly a Triode TRX2 preamp; both in near mint condition. My friend is in no rush so I have weeks, even months to let him know. It would probably mean letting go of at least one of two sets of tube monoblocks - maybe both: MC75's and Grommes G101a’s. Does anyone own the Premier 8 monoblocks here?! Or the Triode TRX2 preamp? I’d like to know what owner’s think of these units and their experience with them. Thx!
