I guess it's too soon to
tell us about his home theater again.

My new CJ preamp cost more than your boat!

Bwahahahahahaha!

I remember the pic's. Maybe you and your wife both work to support your
mini-yacht but your the squalid room in which your so-called home theater
was thrown together looked like a dump.

GW,

That dump, as you called it, is an apartment in Kew Gardens, NYC under
City rent control. I don't believe it is equipped with a wine cellar for
fine expense wines.

Nutsy has declared he sails a "Dry Ship", so I can't figure why he would
be carrying and expense wine. He doesn't have a controlled weather area
on "Derelict",so if he is transporting a expense wine back and forth and
storing it on the boat it isn't worth it's purchase price.

I'm sure Vito could match it with a Gallon on Swiss Colony!

Then, we must consider that Nutsy doesn't have any salary and matching
that salary, Swiss Colony would do the job G

So, I think I'll have a little "Jacques Cardin", Imported and bottled in
New Rochelle by Sidney Frank Importing Co. I know the single shot will
be worth more than Nutsy's Weekly Salary :^)

So; "I'll Drink My Night Cap, as the Doctor Ordered and Bid Good Night
to you NUTSY"

Conrad Johnson stuff is fine for music especially if you have pristine vinyl
and a quality turntable. For home theater it's not only a poor performer but
but a waste.

Why would one need an analogue pre-amp when dealing with a digital data
stream?

What's with the "Bwaaahahahah", it's a perfectly legimate question, why
do you need tube type
analogue preamp with a digital data stream?

Have you ever heard T2 or Chicago through tube based amps, while using a CJ 2ch
preamp to stage the LR channels?
How about older 1 or 2ch (All that Jazz, Conan or Casablanca for example) which
are rescued by such gear? In fact, ABS in LI ran a great demo with an old
Sonograph mono block tube stage just for the center channel and it was amazing.
Dialogue sounded far more natural an less bright.
I also run Rotel amps 1075 and 1080 with the PW2200 sub, which is better for
modern recordings.
You'd know more if you tried different gear, as I do. Loco is clearly working
off old issues of Stereophile, while running ancient Nad gear!

Hooooh ahhh!

I just don't feel the need to use tube gear to reproduce explosions and car
crashes. As far as a tube amp for center channel dialog goes ...... get a
grip.
