I was at Andy's studio several years ago. He had the CJ Premier 12's in there at the time. I heard them, and thought they sounded great driving the Antares. It may be worth asking his opinion on CJ as well. You are certainly in a good place w/ either CJ or VTL though.
tubes and rock and roll, good fit?
Considering a move from solid state, to a tubes based set up, specificly VTL's Siegfried mono amps and 7.5 Series 11 line stage. Will I be happy with tubes or is there to much bloom for rock and roll? Only system I ever heard play real rock and roll with tubes was Lloyd Walkers and it sounded fantastic. It blew me away. Was it the tubes? Already have the tt and phono stage. Real knowledge and experiance thoughts wanted. Looking to make that FINAL move! thanks
