RE: Conrad Johnson Premier Two

Posted by Mick Wolfe on February 16, 2017 at 08:17:25:
I have to agree with Awe-d-o-file. The Premiere pre-amp's were CJ's top of the line efforts in that timeframe. The 10, though very respectable, was certainly designed to a given ( lower) price point. Bill Thalman told me several years ago that the Premiere 2 was his favorite pre-amp. I still have a Premiere 3. I used it as my main pre-amp for years and then a few more years as a seperate phono pre-amp. I believe the Premiere 2 is well worth the investment in regard to restoration. Once again I'll mention/recommend Bill Thalman if you decide to go in that direction. While these pre-amps may not be the last word in current resolution standards, they excel in musicality and involvement factor.
