If you purchase the CJ preamp, remember that it inverts phase so you will have to reverse your speaker wire leads.
Conrad Johnson 17LS2 tube problems with Krell amp?
I have a Krell 400cx amp, Esoteric DV-50 universal player, B&W Nautilus 801 speakers, and the older Krell KRC-2 preamp. I'm considering the CJ 17LS2 preamp and wondering if there are any technical compatibility issues to worry about regarding using tubes with the Krell amp. I'm also considering Krell's KCT preamp. Has anybody heard either preamp in similar systems? I've yet to listen to them but intend to soon. I listen to classical music and hard rock music. Thanks for any advice.
