The PV1 was cj's first product. I never sold them - we picked up the line with the PV2, but I have played with a few of the units. It's a little noisy and a little bandwidth limited. For the time it was a great pre, but has been superceded many times over since the early 80's.
Midrange is great and it images well, with that 3D feeling that only tubes can do.
You might consider it as a gateway pre - once you've heard its charms you can't go back to SS.
