Recommended Posts

Item: Conrad Johnson ET3 MM phono
Location: VIC 3148
Price: Relist
Item Condition: Excellent
Reason for selling: Not being used
Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal (+3%), COD Only
Extra Info:


This is an excellent tube pre. Has HT bypass and remote control. Unit is in execellent/near new/mint condition.

Has all the characteristics of the Conrad Johnson house sound, warm, enveloping, intimate and palpable.

I have used the phono board with my Lyra Delos with a cinemag step up transformer and the sound has been sensational. The phono stage is meant to be essentially the same as the outboard CJ TEA1. The level of performance with this set up is outstanding, matching if not surpassing such phono stages like the Manley Chinook.

 

Comes with all original packaging , manual , power cable and remote.

Thanks guys. This is the third CJ preamplifier I have owned. Seem to be a bit under appreciated in these parts. I really love the CJ house sound and the phono stage on this preamplifier is really quite special.

This is an absolutely fantastic pre amp, and a great price.

To me, a pre is really the heart of a system. And Conrad Johnson are very hard to beat for the price.

What a bargain. With a fantastic phono stage installed as well.

Can't go wrong with this. Other pre-amps in this price range may have different flavour but not better in my experience.
