| Conrad Johnson pf-r I don't think this is necessarily a problem. I used to own a CJ PF-2L and I believe the light would stay on (although there was no power switch). I think that this was a very common thing in their solid state line and they really focused on true o... | |
| Conrad Johnson dedicated fansite @SteveaudioThis topic Conrad Johnson Premier 17LS preamp shuts off seems similar to what you were experiencing, I wonder if there if it is similar problem? | |
| Conrad Johnson Premier 17LS preamp shuts off I agree with the other commentators that you need to make sure the power is good. I would definitely try with a good power conditioner (and voltage regulator).Also, has the unit ever been exposed to too much electricity such as a lightning storm. ... | |
| Upgrade Amp or Preamp 1st? Conrad Johnson? I agree with Dave. I would probably go with the preamp upgrade first, unless you are having difficulty driving your speakers. If that is the case, then upgrade the amp first. Used conrad johnson can be had at a very reasonable bargain and you real... | |
| Conrad Johnson dedicated fansite @SteveaudioSorry to hear that there will be no repairs made to the unit. Sometimes when high cost damage is done to a component it's cheaper just to buy a used replacement. PFR's do pop up on audiogon and ebay so if you have your heart set on that... | |
| Conrad Johnson dedicated fansite I have owned quite a few CJ components and never had anything go bad (other than tubes). I wonder what the ultimate issue with bogeybuster49's unit was? I hope the unit is salvageable. Perhaps the control electronics will need to be replaced but h... | |
| Conrad Johnson dedicated fansite @Bogeybuster49Did you issue with the bad unit every get resolved. Very unusual situation as the people at CJ have alway been super responsive to any issue or problem that I have ever called them about. I had some tube issues with my PV12 and they ... | |
| Conrad Johnson wallpaper background for computer I did as you suggested. There are of course many examples of Conrad Johnson equipment, but very few high resolution images that are more on the artistic side. Most are pictures from reviews. Oh well, I'll keep looking. | |
| Conrad-Johnson Premier 3 - worth repairing? You may want to try the Troubleshooting forums for help in fixing this. The premier 3 is a really nice unit and I would try to fix it before tossing it (or selling it). | |
| Which is REALLY the best Conrad Johnson Preamp I love my Conrad Johnson PV-12. It has a nice smooth response. I used to use a Conrad Johnson PF-2 but I slowly fell in love with the "tube sound." The great thing is that you can pick up a used PV-12 for under a $1k which is a great bargain. | |
| Conrad Johnson dedicated fansite I agree, the more sources we conrad johnson fans have the better. Often it is difficult to get reviews and questions answered on general audiophile sites. Both are incredibly useful but the more choices the better, IMHO. :) | |
| Phono Preamp Recommendations I use a Jolida JD9. This little beauty of a phono preamp is under $500 and performs on par with much more expensive models. Also, it is very easy (and inexpensive) to make some DIY upgrades that take it into the realm of multi-thousand dollar phon... | |
| Conrad Johnson PV10A Mods/upgrades I just noticed I misspelled the site in my previous post. It's www.conradjohnsonOWners.com. Sorry about the mistake. | |
| conrad johnson GAT vs ACT 2 series 2 You may want to go to ConradJohnsonOwners.com. It's a site dedicated solely for CJ onwers and members may be able to offer some insight into their experiences as well. I use more vintage equipment, PV12 and an Evolution 2000 amp, but I love the CJ... | |
| World's best Pre-amp for $10K and above? I wish I had the problem of choosing an over $10K preamp! :) For now I have to save my pennies! |
