Conrad Johnson MV60SE vs. Audio Research VS55


Has anyone here ever compared Conrad Johnson MV60SE amp versus the Audio Research VS55 amp? And has anyone ever compared either of these two amps to the Vintage McIntosh MC240 or MC225/MC275 (unmodified original) amp? Thanks!!

You can now have the caps in the MV 60 upgraded to teflon and that will take you close to CJ premier level performance. If you have the MV 60 consider all the upgrades.
doesnt the mv 60se have the teflon caps ????? oh my god tell me more!....if not what upgrades are available
As someone who has done these upgrades the C/J sounds excellent. Coupling cap upgrades are always nice provided the caps used are complimentary. It does take some time for those caps to break in however.
The MV60SE does not have teflon caps. It is an amazing transformation. More detail. More music. More open. Quieter, smoother. It will sound like a new amp 10+ times better. But it takes 200 hours to burn in the new caps. A wait very much worth while. Call CJ and talk to them. Don't rely on us.
