I am a Plinius dealer, so I really do agree with the gentileman who was talking about them.
I worked for many years in a hi fi store that sold the CJ. The CJ for the money is an excellent amplifier but it lacks the refinement that a Plinius provides.
Also there is a pure tube amplifier that is high powered and extremely inexpensive for the power. That amplifier is a Antique Sound Labs Hurrricane. The Hurricane pumps out 200 watts ultralinear power and the sound was as good in most cases as my VAC PHI 110 amplifier which costs $10,000!
The Hurricane new is $5,000.00 and it really is an amazing sounding amplifier.
If you are in the New York metro area I would invite you in for a listen.
