| Cost effective mods for a Sony SCD-777ES With this player pretty much the sky is the limit but the mods that give the most bang for the buck (IMO) are as follows.1)Superclock and superclok power supply are the first mods I would make. 2)I would do the analog output stage 3)Then the power... | |
| tubed preamp off and ss amp left on? I would not leave a tubed pre on 24/7 and only leave the amp on when you are going to be around it and in general not over night. I do on occasion leave my ss amp on overnight but as a general rule I turn it off. Having said that you should not ge... | |
| Dedicated power.... Depending on the type of amplification you are using a 20 amp circuit may or may not make a difference. As far as using high quality outlets go they can help and certainly can not hurt. I believe a good quality hospital grade outlet is fine but ot... | |
| cj pv 11 with ar vt60 Sounds more like an amplification issue to me not pre-amp. Need to know more about the efficiency of your speakers and the type of music you listen to. What the power output of your current amplifier is as it may not have the horespower need to dr... | |
| Are monoblocks better than stereo, with tube amps? Like Unsound I also run longer speaker cables and prefer shorter interconnects. I am also a cj fan and that has also been their recommendation concerning their equipment. | |
| CJ sound NrostovYour comments suprise me! You are the first one that I ever read making a comment that cj pre-amps are on the dark side and lack highend sparkle. I have read many comments to the contrary............but you hear what you hear. I have owned ... | |
| C-J PREMIER 17 LS SERIE 2 VS 16 LS SERIE 2 The 17lsII has the teflon caps the 16lsI or II does not nor does the 17lsI. What limited listening to the 17lsII I did do, it did not seem to have the extension in both high and low frequencies that the 16lsII has, the mid range detail was close..... | |
| C-J PREMIER 17 LS SERIE 2 VS 16 LS SERIE 2 My experience is with the 17ls series I. I have heard the series II but not in my system so my comments are limited to the 17ls I as it compares to the 16ls II. The 16ls II is much more detailed at all frequencies and more musical with a much deep... | |
| CJ sound I owned a cj 17ls and liked it very much it certainly was not dark and laid back at least not im my system. If anything it is very detailed with lots of timbre around the instruments and exhibited very good sound staging. I sold it to my friend an... | |
| Are monoblocks better than stereo, with tube amps? Not necessarily and in the end it is the sound that counts most. I would not let mono-bloc versus stereo make my decision. | |
| Power Conditioning Help Please? Agree with Lak the first place to start is dedicated circuits and high end AC outlets. | |
| What current China import sounds like a CJ?? Agree with others here support the chinese at your own peril........or make that job. Nothing sounds like cj and if thats what you seek than save for a little longer. Your ears and in the long run your pocket book will thank you and maybe even you... | |
| dedicated outlet cost I ran two lines myself with PS Audio Power Ports.........total cost about $150 in materials. | |
| Upgrade for Thiel 1.6 - Or a waste of $$ What are you using for a pre-amp? You might consider starting there.....such as a tubed cj unit. In my experience cj equipment works very well with Thiel speakers very smooth and detailed. | |
| Who has Caps on their AC lines ??? I like my AC straight up no chaser. |
