RE: Anyone Own A CJ PV-8 Pre?

I had a PV-8, listened to it for about 6 months before I did a listening comparsion with a Dynaco PAS that had a reasonable amount of upgrades. The Dynaco sounded much better. I tried a lot of upragdes to the PV-8, and all I could achieve was that it approached the sound of the Dynaco. I finally gave up and sold it. Before someone asks if it is just that I like the sound of the Dynaco or if it was system synergy, I have tried and used other preamps around the price point of the PV-8, they all sounded better than the PV-8 and most sound better than the Dynaco.
