RE: Thanks Abe

Weird but I think I prefer solid-state CJ gear more than their tube offerings.

I had the CJ PF-R which was an outstanding preamp. The only minor issue with it in my setup was the Volume knob had most of its useful range down toward 7 O'Clock to 9 O'Clock if I recall. It made adjusting the Volume a little touchy with the Remote control. I would often over-shoot or under-shoot my ideal Volume level.

I also had the CJ MF-2250A power amp which I liked a lot although it could have had a bit more 'slam'. The very dynamic PF-R made up the difference so the combo was very good.

I have no experience with more recent power conditioners or AC regenerators. I have an older PS Audio Power Plant P300 which I use for source components.

In any case, welcome back to the Asylum!
