Re: Any one thinking about a GAT Series 2 preamp?

I own a TEA1-GATS2-ART combo (which I’m very proud of, as you may understand). I bought the ART brand new at a little more than half price from the Peruvian local distributor. It was a very unique opportunity then offered by c-j. It was then or never. I made the investment and I’ll never regret. The...

Re: New member from Peru.

Those are 3.7i's with Mye Sound stands. They have upgraded fuses and jumpers. Maggies are so transparent and dynamic when they're properly driven, that they beat many much more expensive speakers. 20.7's would be ideal, but too big for my space. Magnepans are a great match to the ART monoblocks and ...

Re: Any one thinking about a GAT Series 2 preamp?

Finally, I got my GAT S2 set up and running (replacing an C-J ET5). Amazing tonality out of the box. Still missing the soundstage I was able to obtain though, but it must surely be a matter of breaking in time. Does anybody have any experience in the breaking in period for the GAT or GAT S2?

Re: Any one thinking about a GAT Series 2 preamp?

I am a lucky guy who got started in the c-j world by buying a combo consisting of the ART monoblocks, an ET5 preamp and a TEA2 MAX phono stage. After about some 5 glorious years of happy listening, I have been able to upgrade to a GATs2 some months ago and finally to a TEA1s2, which I installed just...
