Oh, I will. I think you are 100% correct too. I am getting excited for the gear to come in.

Great...if you wouldn't mind posting what you heard when you hook up the full CJ Ref amps to the SF Evolutions, I would appreciate. I really liked my SF Guarneris a lot, truly an exquisite piece of work from Franco Serblin.

Will do, but it takes 600+ hours for CJ gear to break in.

Joe...My guess is the EAR combo will have a tough time with your TADs (not sure about the Revels). Would be interested to hear your thoughts on the SF Evos and EAR/CJ combos as Lloyd mentioned above.

I think the EAR might be beefier than anticipated, my Dartzeel has no problem on the TADs. I am sure the CJ on the Evos will be awesome.

Re: Do we have any Lamm fans here? ...
Joe,
The LAMM ML3 seems like the pinnacle indeed. But once price factors in, I'm reminded that I can get a darTZeel NHB-458 for the same money, so out goes the LAMM...

My thoughts exactly. The 458 would be a destination.
