I am beyond excited to add this pair of Conrad Johnson Premier 8XS amplifiers to my personal collection. These were ultra-bonkers-crazy-high-end amplifiers sold in the mid 1990s. The Premier 8"XS" versions are designed to use 8x EL34 tubes in a parallel push-pull configuration to produce around 130 watts of smooth and warm EL34 power. These are probably some of the most powerful amplifiers which utilize this special tube. I purchased these from a long-time friend of mine after years of pestering. They were all original and needed some minor maintenance and alterations to bring them back to their full glory.
I am building a new HiFi system around these amps and I can't wait to share more information as I pick out a turntable, preamp, and speakers. More to come soon. Until then, check out the photos.
I have tons of pictures and notes about these amplifiers, please let me know if you have any questions about them.
