Yes, that was in 2020 when the ART 27A was released. It’s nice when products receive their deserved recognition!

Mr. Lew Johnson just posted in the Conrad Johnson's group in Facebook. A reason why I posted the link.

Hola Chicos, I wrote wrong the model. The winner model is The ART108 power amp. Please excuse me!

[AnotherJohnson]

That makes sense. The 108A was new this year, along with the 88. New flagships. It’s nice that they are getting some reviewer love!

Very nice and well deserved. I have to admit I usually don't put a lot of faith in these "best of" lists but I think it's good for brand recognition and to emphasize that CJ is really some of the best hardware that can be had in the industry. Congrats to CJ and the entire team.

It looks like Hi-Fi+ also gave awards to the Art 300 when it came out, so that’s at least three from the ART series that have been honored by Hi-Fi+.

[AnotherJohnson]

Some may know that Hi-Fi+ is a British magazine. At one time I was a subscriber. I restarted my subscription a few years ago when I noticed that Hi-Fi+ had acknowledge Ken Ishiwata’s death about 6 months before TAS reviewed his swan song Ruby series and speculated that it would probably be his last project since he had retired from Marantz. It was clear to me that Hi-Fi+ was actually following the industry while TAS was phoning it in.

Yes, and also that UK Audio Freaks guy, Matty's good mate... is the success behind all of CJ's reviews on Hi Fi plus, so why bother to poke the bear. That was his dilemma, which has now become a big pickle! The CJ gear reviewed on Hi Fi plus ends up with cranko Branko, and in CJ-ville they're well regarded...but definitely not in customer service!

Anyway, apart from Hi Fi plus, I'm aware that whenever CJ releases a statement product, everyone stands up to listen. So regardless of Hi Fi plus or not, I'm sure these top of the line CJ ART series amplifiers will get the recognition they deserve. After all, at that level Jeff knows what he's doing.

Good on them! Well done

Yes. I started to write this too, but thought better of it. Admin often speculates that good reviews could be tied to other agendas. In this case, Hi-Fi+ and Audio Freaks do seem to have a symbiotic relationship. As I’ve mentioned privately to RJ, my friends in the UK are generally not positively impressed by AF’s representation of CJ. But, if AF makes good orders, pays their bills, and supports the product (that’s the big if), CJ will surely allow them to continue.
