amp-preamp considerations.
MachineI have had personnel experience with a tube amp; premier 11a. I sold it because it was not enough power to drive my thiels. I love what tube amps do that is provide the inner detail in the mid to high-end frequencies that ss simply can not ... 
amp-preamp considerations.
Of the pre's you mentioned either the pass or as someone else mentioned the CJ premier 18. However, In my opinion you would have been better off with a tube pre and ss amp for which there are many more synergistic matches. Tube amps require more m... 
amp-preamp considerations.
I think we have answered this question before. I would buy at the very minimum a CJ premier 17lsII and maybe jump to the 16lsII. Either pre-amp will bring out the best in the prmier 140 anything less is a waste. Any of the pre's you mentioned are ... 
c-j prem 140
RecWhat amp and speakers are you currently using as well as front end? I am running a CJ MF2500A with CJ 16ls2 and I am cosidering upgrading to the 140. I have an SCD-1 and Thiel 3.6 speakers with audioquest anaconda interconnects and volcano spea... 
c-j prem 140
I would suggest nothing less than a CJ Premier 17ls tubed pre-amp. Your adcom is far below your amp and cd player and is without a doubt the weakest link in your system. I would not even consider modding it. 
What are the best receptacles and plugs?

Conrad Johnson Premier 350 solid state amp
Cool I was curious as to when this amp was going to become available after having heard of its production intent. I am looking forward to hearing one. 
Anyone have experience with ElectroHarmonix tubes?
Mchd1 I found them on E-Bay. I have delt with this person a couple of times and he been very reputable. 
Anyone have experience with ElectroHarmonix tubes?
Quincy, I still miss that tube amp. I never should have sold it.........or maybe I need to buy a Premier 140 or better yet a mono-bloc pair. 
Anyone have experience with ElectroHarmonix tubes?
I have been using the EH 6922 gold pin version in my CJ 16ls and like them very much. I agree with you that they are better than the Sovteks. I have tried JAN Philips NOS and the EH are much better. I have not tried any of the high end rare NOS li... 
c-j tube amps
What Ron8 says is correct. You can also peruse the CJ web site for more info or simply call them for more info. 
CJ:MF 2300,MF 2500A or Evolution 2000?
I second Doug99's comments pertaining to MF2500A being much better then the 2500. I had mine upgraded about a year ago and have been very impressed with the improvement.The amp has no problem driving my Thiel 3.6's. 
What Pre in connection with a C-J Pr 11A?
Why not consider a CJ Pre-Amp. 
Tube pre amp suggestions for my Bryston 3BST
I would suggest the Conrad johnson PV-10 as you mention. Very open airy and detailed with large and deep sound stage.
