conrad johnson GAT vs ACT 2 series 2

I have not had good luck with 6922 based preamps which seem to wear out quickly and will most likely stay with the 2.2 . The only pre that has me curios is the simaudio p8 since I have a w7 amp and supernova CDs. Thanks, good listening

Thanks Lloyd, I tried some expensive shunyata and synergistic research pc's without success when i had my previous speaker a von schweikert vr 35 and found them to be worst than the stock cord. 2 of the sr cords work great on my simaudio w7 and supernova so we are talking synergies. The one cord the act 2.2 did seem to like that had a little improvment was a shunyata copperhead which are pretty cheap-go figure. the act has not liked any of the footers i have tried so far. (it is in an arcici suspense rack). thanks for your thoughts

Lloyd I may chech out the hrs thru cable company. The series 2 was good sized improvement to the1 so I still wonder how close it gets to the gat? Did you use the hrs with the act as well as the gat with good results. Please describe if you have time. Thanks ray

6922 tubes seem to age fresh to merely good in fairly few hours compared to my 6h30p which have stayed much more consistent. Thanks ray

the only other high quality cdp i would recommend is simaudio's first generation 2 box top of the line unit. sorry i dont know name. a friend of mine has this and i am always impressed by it
