--- the Hegeman Hapi 2-- I owned both and the One was clearly superior.A few Caveats on the CJ lines--- they've let out a couple of stinkers!

Hi Jim,Not really the right phrase-let me say there were a couple of items I and my good friend-whom imported CJ agreed on as not up to scratch sonically and technically( judging on build and finish) namely the early Motif branded units ,the MV100 Amps( they self destructed with frightening regularity ) and the PVI pre was impossibly noisy in virtually every system we tried. Their foray into Digital is also better left as not up to par.
Don't get me wrong I like the lushness of the CJ sound and their current top of the line units are up there with the best,also I have many friends with the product and they are supremely satisfied.Best,
Des
