Lon, the fellow that sold me the omegas is thinking of buying a used stock CSP2 built in April 2010 to pair with his SS amp. After I wrote a rather lengthy email, I realized I can't tell him what it sounds like...I've only owned the CSP3 with Jupiter Caps...clearly far more than he wants to spend. I told him $450 shipped seemed like a good price for the CSP2 he was considering the seller was asking $550 plus shipping....do you agree?
Also since you have owned the CSP2 then the CSP2+ then a CSP2+ with Jupiter Beeswax caps, I thought you might be able to tell him of the sonic benefits or differences with each progression. Aside from the steel case and cleaned up internal layout, what is the difference between a stock CSP2+ and a CSP3? His name is William and he is now a member here under the handle "Skyhorn". Anyone else with advice is welcome to chime in.
Now I'm listening to the second set from June 4, 1994 of the below box set...fabulous. Oh, I almost forgot, I bought a pair each of the following tubes for my ZP3 in the 12AU7 spot. Can 12AT7 be use in the ZP3 or the 12AX7 spots filled with 12AU7 or 12AT7 tubes?...CIFTE 12AU7 (cryo) and Mullard CV4003 (12AU7) were purchased from the classifieds here. Mark.
