| Help choosing a Conrad Johnson preamp Breuninger, I apologize for misquoting you - quite sloppy of me. Thank you for answering my question. | |
| Help choosing a Conrad Johnson preamp Hi Bobheinatz, does your "best of the line" statement include a comparison with the Premier 16LS2? I currently have the Premier 17LS and have been considering a move up to either of the two.Hi Solst1ce, I haven't heard any of your preferred cj's, ... | |
| Tubelike SS Power amp "The sound of the music when initially played to make a recording, is not the sound that you hear when played back"It's probably not the sound those present for the recording hear either. For all that we know, the microphone might be a much more e... | |
| I need help with my Equipment addiction "I can't leave well enough alone"Nor should you. The greatest among us achieve greatness precisely because they can't leave well enough alone. Intrepid souls, often flying into the dark unknown in utter defiance of conventional wisdom, armed only ... | |
| Modifications to integrated tube amp: experiences? I beg your pardon "Clio09". | |

| Jadis DA 60 Integrated Thank you Flg2001. Not wanting to oversimplify things, but are you saying that the DA60 is the more dynamic of the two while the Da88 is more nuanced and refined? | |
| Jadis DA 60 Integrated I don't want to hijack this thread, but can anyone comment on the differences between the DA60 and the DA88. Both have similar specs. | |
| Jadis musical value? Missioncoonery, Just for clarity, does your assessment apply only to the Orchestra or to all Jadis integrateds? In the later case, is it that they don't make the grade sonically or are there reliability issues? Can you offer some specific concerns? | |
| Jadis musical value? David12, You're right of course. My post was carelessly composed and misrepresents my admiration for the Solista - a truly fine amplifier and, in my opinion, a tremendous bargain for the prices I've seen them offered on Audiogon. | |
| Jadis musical value? Thanks fellas. Currently, I have large cj mono-blocks and would just like to simplify my system. The vintage cj's are very musical but might be just a little too soft. My friend has a nice integrated Viva but I find SETs too restricting - it seems... | |
