FirstWatt J2 on its way

Congrats... interested in your opinion!

I use the bhk pre with the J2!! It's a great combo. Matched with my Devore 0/93's. The gain is perfect for me. I also use it with my Zu dirty weekends. The j2 also works well with higher impedance speakers too. What impedance are you speakers?

If it's super high maybe try out a loading resistor that Zu audio sells on their website to knock your speakers down closer to 8 ohm.
only costs about $20

My Zu Omen Defs are already 8 ohms, however, I've read that people with Zu Souls use the resistor with great results. My Omen Defs are rated at 101 db efficiency. The review measurements generally palce it around 96-97 db, which is still really sensitive. I'm hooking up the amp later today. I just with there were a better way to turn the thing on and off. In the past, I've tried those "master" power strips, but find that they add noise. I currently run all my components to a Torus power conditioner/protector. 

aberyclark,

I’ll be interested in your review of the J2.

Thanks.
