My PR350SA has performed flawlessly since birth, and since I work only 10 mins away from the cj mothership, I plan to stop by soon and have the cj techs perform a health check on my 350...... because it is definitely a keeper.

The GAT pre amp is superb. I had a cj ART3 before that.

I too thank you for the factual response on the P350. Regarding Martin Collom's experience it should probably be taken in the context of understanding "mains" power in the UK. In the US, notwithstanding all the filtering and fussing we do with our power input, we enjoy a consistent supply of power at constant voltage, lots of current and most important to this discussion... at contstant 60 cycles. Not an excuse but many good equipment companies have some difficulty designing power supplies for use overseas as their supply of higher voltage power is very inconsistent as to voltage and AC frequency. We've all seen the discussions of their efforts to control the power issues coming into their systems. Maybe this is a part of the problem for the respected Mr. Collums. What I did take away from that quote was that despite the probable availability to him of some very fine modern amplification, the old P350 is still his "reference". Also, personally I have no problem driving my Sashas to brick loosening db levels at very low organ pipe frequencies with the P350. Bob |

All that is left is to convince Lew Johnson to manufacture them again...

Has anyone heard the McCormack DNA-750?
I wonder how much cj heritage is now inside |

I am another from the 240 volt world. The voltage can go up to 255-260 volts at time's. I never had any problems driving any speakers with the 350's - then again I never had Sasha's either. But the issue of the amps switching off now and then was real and happened toafew of us in Australia. I did have serious issue with Cary with their 500Mb monoblocks. Transformers incorrectly spec'd for 240 volts and they buzzed like crazy and used to shut down all the time. Cary eventually replaced them with over spec'd german transformers - but frankly with those, the magic in the sound was gone. Got my $$ back fortunately. That is why buying 220 volt gear from Hong Kong is a no no, for amps especially. Things blow up. Last edited by turntable; 11-07-2011 at 05:25 AM. |
