| Anyone still excited about HDCD ? HDCD is very nice but nobody is supporting it.Chuck | |
| Conrad Johnson PV10A-Which Tubes ? When to Change? I believe CJ makes a comment on their web site concerning tube life on pre-amps. So you may want to do some purusing there. But basically I think they comment that pre-amp tubes should last 2 to 3 years under normal use.As far as purchasing tubes.... | |
| Sony SCD-1 vs. SCD-777ES I believe the SCD-1 has two power supplies whereas the SCD-777Es has one,also XLR outputs and cosmetics as Stehno suggests.It is basically the same player.Chuck | |
| Money no object,,,,which speakers would you own??? Thiel 7.2's | |
| EMC-1UP vs. Cary 306/100 Of the two players you mention the EMC would be my choice. However; for redbook only, I would try to find a Accuphase DP-75v which is better than the either the Cary or EMC.Chuck | |
| SACD - what gives? I love SACD (much superior to reddbook) and I if I had to go back to redbook only......I would be out of this hobby.Chuck | |
| Need help with choosing a tubed pre-amp. A tubed pre-amp is a great place to start to achieve the musical charictaristics you are looking for. Of all the components I have upgraded the pre-amp has always had the biggest impact on the musicality of my system. I would recommend you also in... | |
| Is a CJPV10A and a Sonographe SA250 a good match? I second Sugarbries suggestion or if you can afford it a 2250 or better yet the 2250A.Chuck | |
| xrcd 24 - someone did digital right Thanks for the recommendations..........I will peruse these sites and see if I can find something. I am excited to try one as I am sure they sound better than redbook CD's.Thanks, Chuck | |
| xrcd 24 - someone did digital right Too expensive and not enough titles. I have been trying to select a title(classical) that interests me but so far I have been unsuccessful. I have perused both Tower Records and Elusive Disc's web site and can't find a single title. Are there othe... | |
| Conrad Johnson Upgrade? The MF2500A will drive either speaker without a problem and will be a huge upgrade to the old Sonographe.Chuck | |
| Help Will CJ Premier 11 enough power for B&W 804? Depends on your volume level requirements and the efficiency of your speakers. I did drive a pair of Thiel 3.6's with a Premier 11a for a while before moving to a CJ MF2500A. The bass response was more defined with the 2500A,however, I was very sa... | |
| Upgrade from C-J MF2100 to MF2250? I can not comment directly on your question concerning the 2100 to 2250. But I did experience upgrading from the 2500 to 2500A and it was a substantial upgrade. I would expect you would experience the same thing assuming the rest of your system is... | |
| Views/experience of mating Conrad Johnson PV 14L w For best system matching I would recommend something in the CJ line-up, MF2250A or MF2500A.Chuck | |
| Audioquest IC's for tubed separates. I have used Vipers between my PV-10A and Premier 11A and was very impressed with the results. I have since upgraded to a Premier 16ls/II and MF2500A with Anaconda interconnects; I am very impressed with this combination. I have listened to a few d... |
