Any idea what you would expect to pay for a PV15 or a P17?

About $1750 on average for a PV15, and approx $2000-$2200 for a Premier 17LS.

Premier 17LS2 sell for around $2750...

I'm considering a PV15 to replace my PV11. Has anyone ever compared these two preamps or know how the PV15 would be sonically different? My PV11 does have a phono stage which the PV15 does not. I'll eventually need to look for a phon pre. You guys are seriously enabling my upgradeitis.

Thanks,
Doug

The PV15 will be notably superior to the PV11.

BTW, you can have C-J install the phono section in a PV15 if you send it back to them.

Thanks Puma Cat. I just pulled the trigger on a very clean PV15 on Agon for $1,350. Thank you and everyone else for answering my questions.

Best,
Doug

Congrats, Doug!

Let us know how it is when you get it. I've never heard one and have been very curious about it. My guess is it will be very good.
