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!!

IMHO, cj always trumps Audio Research. Over many years of comparing the 2 brands, cj gear sounds more like real, live music. The AR gear has a slight electronic "glaze" over the sound that makes the music sound more "reproduced" than "produced".

I have replied to you Glasspak but it doesn't seem to post. Also sent you mail. Did you not get it?

Like gjgoldy said, the preference is very system dependant. In mine, with Proac 2.5s the golden glow of the CJ is not required so the VS55 is the better, more musical amp.
