| Speaker cable for CJ LPS70 and Sonus Faber Cremona Hi John,This may be off topic but how do you like the sound of of the c-j LPS70 amp?What amps have you heard before going ewith the c-j?Thanks!*>) | |
| Conrad Johnson Act 2 series 2 First Impressions Hi Brent,I was planning on getting a CT5 cause it is close to the ACT2 and now c-j comes out withe a series 2 ACT2. Man, more decisions!*>) | |
| Nuforce Has anyone hear compared the NF 9.02 to a c-j Prem 350, YBA Passion 600 or Cary 500 MB. What were the sonic differences?Thanks! | |
| A good 50-70 watts tube amplifier for $ 2000? I would second the suggestion of the c-j MV-60 but not the SE version. Retube it with Mullard EL-34 re-issues, some NOS 6SN7s and get Sovtek 12AX7LPS.Good Luck!*>) | |
| Anyone using Nuforce Ref 9 Mono Blocks? I have been following the Nuforce threads with great interest, reading that they can slay amps costing up to $10K. Has anyone compared the 9.02 to the c-j Prem 350?Thanks!*>) | |
| A very interesting amp audtion I have to agree with Wadia150. Teejay I'm not sure if you are referring to the ML 2/2.1 or the hybrid M 1.1/1.2. But if its the the ML 2 series with the 6C33C output tubes in triode that is one of the finest amps in the world extant. That's one pr... | |

| Spendor s8e Imaging/Soundstage? Hi Steve,Yes, the Spendor S8e in a living room setting will not be as good as what I'm getting but because of their coherence, crossover implementation and driver matching the will image better than most. Do you remember the Stereophile rave of th... | |
| Spendor s8e Imaging/Soundstage? Yes, Gary is correct the room is very important!Also The S8e has more layers in the depth plane than most speakers. Most have the front middle and back, basically three. The S8e has about five or six and generally double the depth of most speakers... | |
| Spendor s8e Imaging/Soundstage? Hi Steve,I still own the S3/5 and the S8e is more open and less boxy sounding.I am getting more depth than probably Gary as my S8es are in a dedicated room with Argent Room Lenses, ASC tube traps and RPG diffusers. I can assure you this speaker's ... | |
| Spendor s8e Imaging/Soundstage? I currently own the S8e. Just let me tell you its phemnomenal!I never bought the S8e for soundstaging and imaging but it was an added bonus and surprise on how well it did this area. With my equipment I have the deepest layered soundstage I have e... | |
| New Patricia Barber cd "Mythology" No, but thank you for the heads up!*>) | |
| Marten Design Miles II vs Avalon Opus Ceramique..? Hi Frankpiet,I almost forgot I made this post. BTW I have since bought the Spendor S8e which I feel surpasses both the speakers I originally sought out. Thank you for answering my post!*>) | |
| Can tube preamps be as 'detailed' sounding as ss? I agree with Zaikesman, on paper the SS pre has impressive specs but upon listening to my c-j 17LS2 it sounds more involving and more like music than many SS pres I have owned or audition. People say SS pre have better bass extension but with my S... |
