The JC-1 have nothing in common with the A21 apart from the chassis , the JC-1 is a John Curl design the A21 not so much and they are sonically miles apart ..

Since they are both conceptually wrong and in the same way I would be surprised if they sound radically different. Different kinds of wrong perhaps...

  Still struggling with the comprehension I see and I guess they don't agree with the designer too , as it was from the horses mouth , to my ears and i have had both to confirm its not even close , the A21 is a washed down design where the JC- 1 is all curl and the only one he considers as such, the A21 is just enough to say JC design , as i said earlier, its a some what model ....

    I have a pair of the A23 and SOMEWHERE in my stack of email is a post from JC which while NOT exactly super detailed does support his involvement in the 21/23 design process, but not all the way thru production. It's kind of a fine point and I really DO enjoy my pair of 23s with my panels.
    I don't think they are THAT far from the JC1 which I heard with Janszen speakers.
    Too much is never enough

      That's what Curl says.

        Ok, what is it? Or, it's BS.
        I'm not apologizing for being blunt. If you allude to a story, reference or tell it, or it's BS.

        I don't know what "eat up" is. In any case, that doesn't answer my question.
        
        Where/what is the story you're referencing, or is it BS?

        Perhaps there are similar stories for when Nelson Pass auditioned any of his designs implemented by others.
