I don't consider myself old, but I bought a PV-1, then a PV-2, and an MV-75 when they were new. When C-J was a new and upstart company making new TUBED products. The "new" C-J amps and preamps were a bit of the rage. I've had much other C-J gear, it's tended to be my primary go-to stuff, and I just sold my PV-2 not too long ago, and I have that MV-75, which I'm selling now.
Unfortunately for me, I don't have room for a full-on system. I'm selling just about all my big kit. Sold the Prem 12s, a second MV-75, my PV-2, and I'm selling my PV-12A.
Just got alerted to this group from one of the very good folks on Audio Asylum. Nice to know it's here and happy to sign up.

Re: An Old-Timer, I Suppose
Welcome to the site! Sounds like you have a great experience with CJ classic gear. Look forward to hearing about your experience with CJ products. Take care, and once again, welcome to the site.
As a side note, I also use a PV-12, absolutely love it.

Re: An Old-Timer, I Suppose
tvr and fellow inmate, glad to see you made it; welcome.
My current c-j pieces are my much-loved MET1 6-channel preamp and a McCormack DNA-HT5 poweramp that drives center and surround speakers. I hope to replace the 'HT5 with a c-j MET150 by the end of the year.

Re: An Old-Timer, I Suppose
Thanks for the welcomes. Agreed on the PV-12. I feel it's one of the best of the PV-series preamps. Thanks Jeffrey for the tip. Just had to join!
