I do and like it a lot :) My Super HL-5 are hooked up to a Premier 11A and working very nice. Maybe the 40.1 would need slightly more power?

Re: Premier 11A mod

Hi Alex,

At least CJ should know. You could maybe just try writing to the service department.

Re: Preamp for CJ Premier 11A

Thanks! I will try finding one. At the moment there is only a PV-10 from Italy "reacheable".

Re: Preamp for CJ Premier 11A

Congrats on the purchase! Thanks. I already wrote about it in the user presentation area :) What is your price range? Are you looking at new and used? Used will be fine and, ehm, "matching" the 11A. Preferably it should be a tube design. Phono integrated would also be nice, but not necess...

Preamp for CJ Premier 11A

Hi,

I recently got a very nice Premier 11A power amp and now looking for a good matching preamp. I will pair it with Harbeth SHL-5 speaker and am listening to both, vinyl and digital music.

Thanks in advance!

Re: Hello from Germany

Love this hobby! :D YEAH! The day before yesterday I changed the the 5751 and today I also replaced the 6CG7 with the GE JANs I got recently. Then I also swapped the Sylvanias for the new Tung-Sol 6550. What should I say... WOW. Compared to before now the sound is more relaxed and some harshness di...

Re: Hello from Germany

Yes, swapping the the two 5751 first helped me to get down to the fact that one of them is defective or more worn than the other. But today I received a new set of tubes: two NOS GE 5751 (mathed and balanced), two also matched and balanced NOS GE 6CG7 and a matched quad of Tung-Sol 6550. I first cha...

Hi! As far as I can say after a few hours with my Premier 11A, CJ might help you increasing your passion for music :-)

Enjoy!

Re: Hello from Germany

Hi and thanks for the advice. You'r right. Only one change at one time otherwise there is not much sense in comparisons. As far as I can say by now the amp sounds splendid with the passive Kohzmo pre although there seems one 5751 to be worn. The effect is that the imaging is shifted slightly to one ...

Re: Hello from Germany

Thanks, Peter. I will follow your advice and will first listen to the tubes supplied with the amp. The 6550s ar Svetlanas as far as I can see. Then I will also try finding the perfect match with the preamps I have. Let's see.

First of all the voltage has to be adjusted on the power transformer.

Re: Hello from Germany

What about the sound difference? The 6550 sounds pretty neutral and transparent.

Re: Hello from Germany

I wonder if the KT120 can be put into the amp with only adjusting the bias?

Yes, you are right. It was the half of the twelves.

Re: Hello from Germany

Hi Alex and welcome! I have an 11A as well and like it very much. I saw yours on eBay (I assume it is the same one you bought). Looks to be in pristine condition. Mine has a bit of a chip in the lower right of the faceplate. Unfortunately, CJ doesn't have any Pr11 faceplates available. :( Hi Peter,...

Re: Hello from Germany

Hi, Thanks for the welcome. First I corrected the links. Yes I moved the pictures as I created subfolders in photobucket. Now it should work. I already contacted Jeff from the service department of CJ and he wanted to send me the wiring diagram of the power transformer. Unfortunately he doesn't answ...

Hello from Germany

Hi, I am Alex from Germany. Recently I bought a Premier 11A from the US. It is in charge to pass the customs these days - hopefully. http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a500/der_yeti/Hifi%20stuff/2_zpsdc169586.jpg http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a500/der_yeti/Hifi%20stuff/9_zps05cd3f5e.jpg http:...
