Conrad Johnson GAT ...
As much as I wanted Ivan's 28BSST2's (sorry Ivan, maybe soon), I could not pull the trigger on them because I have a sweet little GAT coming Thursday. Ever since I tasted the ET5 and realized I was able to get a Premier 350, I knew it would not be long for the GAT to make its way into my room.I can not wait to play it with the Dartzeel and Premier 350.

Congrats Joe! What a great CJ setup.
All I can say is give the GAT plently of break in time. |

There is no denying there is something special with Conrad Johnson. It is very musical and satisfying. If the GAT is any better than the ET5 (I am sure it will be), I will be very happy. One more great source and I'm done except for some cables, a new rack and ..... Thanks cisco, I was hoping I could keep a handle on it, but I'm almost there. So, how's the CA200? I miss that sweet control amp. |

Joe,
I'm sure the GAT will prove to be very special indeed. Folks that I've spoken to that have them or have reviewed them feel it's one of a handful of the very best preamps in the world. Is yours new or "pre-owned"? Just wondering if there's going to be some running in requ'd. We're all very happy for you, and probably not a little bit envious! Now, all you need is a turntable!

Hi Stephen,
It should be only about half way (or a little more) through break in so I have a little way to go. I am dying to hear it on the 350 and especially on the Dart. |

Good to hear, Joe. So it must have about 300 hours or so on it?
