Re: cl120se with EL-34, or KT88

I still want an EL34 based CJ amp. Whether their KT88 could be warmer than their EL34 amp is a great question. Without a demo, my gut says no.

I regret selling a pair of ART monos that were stunning but I’ve been too scared to pull the trigger on anything more “modern” from CJ.

Thank you!

Re: New member

Thank you so much.

No matter what, I find CJ gear impossible to give up. I miss the full system that I had many years ago. Thank you for providing a wonderful resource here.

Re: New member

Hi, That’s my gear obsession. I keep trying to thin the herd but end up adding more. Everything won’t fit here so I thought this was easier. If the admin objects, I’ll remove that link. I’m not a dealer just compulsive on gear purchases. So, what speakers do you have or are thinking of getting and w...

Anyone own the CAV45-S2

Curious what your thoughts are about how it sounds in your system?

What speakers are you pairing with it?

I forgot to mention that the new ART27A is a class A power amp...the distortion and the harmonic texture is breath taking!!!
GO FOR IT!

Happy listening!

Re: What speakers are you using with your Conrad Johnson gear?

Very nice Dave. I loved the R107 when I heard them. I’m sure it’s a great match.

Re: NEW Conrad Johnson ART27A Triode Tube Amp

I am entertaining a slightly less efficient conventional speaker addition to better match the 27A should I consider one.

I’m afraid, without having heard the GAT2 and 27A on my Duo XD, the gain would be too high. Excess noise, hiss and hum drives me nuts. I don’t have any of that now.
