dpod my friend... I should add two more suggestions:

First... as you doubt already know, that thing is a heavy 85 lb. and is not a well balanced lift. The left side is so much heavier than the right. It's a hoss to move around... and please be careful. The cooling fins on the left side all have sharp edges and will show no mercy to your forearms.

Secondly... although this may be a good thing as you already like the sound...this was one of the first units in which C-J used proprietary teflon caps. I don't remember a break-in issue but the sound should only get better for you with time. I've never found the sound at all fatiguing and none of the reviewers that I've read did either. Is it as holographic as my LP140 tubes, probably not but it sure is faster with tighter lows. Back to the Ravens.

Enjoy the champaign beast!

Bob
