Re: Hickok 752A tube tester with manual and data books
We'd grab it for that price! However, it wouldn't work Down Unda... totally different voltage. Hopefully, someone who really can use this tool will fund it very useful. Only thing is, you need to know what you're doing and what you're looking for. Those measurements can mean an awful lot of info to ...

Re: CJ Classic 62SE w/EL34 vs McIntosh MC275MKVI?
Oh! One more thing, if you're planning on home trials... did you also consider the ARC and VTL gear on similar specs? Both of these tube brands offer excellent quality and performance. ARC VT series may be the option, although their Ref series is at a much higher price point, in which case CJ's ART ...

Re: CJ Classic 62SE w/EL34 vs McIntosh MC275MKVI?
Hey mate, just re-read your title closely; Classic 62se with EL34's... Mmm... now this particular combination I have not experienced, only on the standard versions not on the SE versions. The majority of installations done here, in reference to the SE version, has always been fitted with KT120's ...

Re: CJ Classic 62SE w/EL34 vs McIntosh MC275MKVI?
Hey matey, how's it going... Came across your post. Yes! Have used the MC275 both as a stereo and in bi-amp config with Quad ESL's and Maggie's many years ago ( over decade ago). At the time with the Maggie's it wasn't as close compared to driving my previous MG3.5/r with the Manley/VTL Ref350's ...

Re: What should I get?
I believe that Hikaru12 is after CJ's vintage type of sound. This was CJ's hallmark, which made their gear famous and sought after, starting from the 70's and onto the late 90's & early 2000. Reading through his post... I'm not sure if CJ's newest offerings are of any interest to him because ...

Re: Vacation Picture - show us where have you been
Now that's fab!
Nice one Admin mate, trust you enjoyed the trip. Whiles you were away, I could've really enjoyed and looked after your ART monoblocks! Next time you're away, please do ask. I know US & Aus are worlds apart... but looking after highend tube gear is my passion!
Woof! RJ

Re: What should I get?
It's a bit difficult to determine which preamp would suit your gear... That can only be determined by you of course. As Admin mentioned, the PV12 is without a doubt a great choice. If considering the M8080 Mullards (CV406) equivalents or something like that... can't remember 100%, those are one of ...

Re: HumminGuru GH-1 LPs cleaner...a jewel to use.
Yes, nice one Robbo mate. It is a very good unit, VFM in ultrasound cleaning of LP's. We have our own distributor here in Melb, and the price is very reasonable compared to KL Audio, which can cost over 6grand in Aus. So no thanks. The HG is quite good and I do believe your findings where it gave ...

Re: New Member in Charleston, SC
The ART300's are quite different. Initially thought about them, since they're less than the ART108A's (Class A output stages) but later realised the differences after extensive auditions. Several types of speakers, ML Stats, YG Acoustics and Magico's, which were all very fine indeed and in the ...

Re: New Member in Charleston, SC
G'day mate, Welcome to CJO! The GAT partnered with the LP275M monoblocks is a fine combination. Driving Wilson Alexia's, really tops. As correctly stated, lower powered tube amps wouldn't be able to have a full grip on the speakers impedence swing, hence low power wouldn't result in high performance ...

Re: Getting close to nature, gentle giant
Yes, these are once in a lifetime opportunity auditions, and always a learning curve for me as well. Rather disappointing on the Genesis Tributes... that was supposed to be the main attraction but never took place. Of course in your part of the woods, you've got many shows, and particularly the one ...

Re: The Adelphi
Yes correct Admin. Retook the pics from the Adelphi show, since our good Aussie mate was also there for show coverage. Took a while for the full report but couldn't cover every room, there's just far too much. It's not as vast as Munich's show but it's quite comprehensive, covering a lot of gear. I ...

The Adelphi Show
G'day maties, trust all is well at your end of the woods. Managed to find those pics taken from the Adelphi. For those who maybe keen to know what's on demo... retook these from the site just for your quick reference. I've posted only a few, which I came across as most engaging with high performance ...

Re: Conrad Johnson Premier 12 Monoblocks for Sale - SOLD
Nice one Bill! The Classic 60SE will be a new dimension, especially driving Klipsch LaScala's, easy load and effortless sound. Those Prem12's were legendary indeed, and top line gear of those glory days of CJ. I started out with the Prem11A, Prem12 and onto the Prem8A's, driving various types of ...

Re: Getting close to nature, gentle giant
Cheers Admin! The wifey was looking at a nice piece from Cartier, lots of bling in those stores including Tiffany's. Then when visited the Adelphi which also had plenty of bling shiny tranny covers (Manley Labs, Jadis and VAC) to name a few, she asked what's the big deal in all this type of gear ...

In that case, sounds like it's fine just the way it is! Best advice, sit back and enjoy those fine tunes! Perhaps other members here will suggest some 6922 variants but it's very difficult to ascertain what you're looking for with others ears. It's all highly personal preferences, based on long term ...

Re: System update and a question
G'day mate, Nice power amp, one of the best SS designs CJ ever made to date. At the time of ownership, I had the Prem350A partnered with the ACT2 preamp. That was like a turbo boost on super-charge, driving several types of speakers with difficult loads (Infinity's IRS 1B, Ren90, Epsilon and Maggies ...
