Feel free to come to Lake Oswego and hear my new CJ 350 - same circuitry and sound.

Something to think about.
Maybe we should set up a C-J "lending library" where we send our components around to each other to live with for a month.

You lucky dawg I bet the 350 is very nice.


As far as the CA200. Doing very well. I was just thumbing through the manual and I read it is phase inverting. So that makes me think I should have reversed the speaker connections. Darn. Time to shutdown and rewire and see if it males a difference. Or just hook up the ET5 and that should accomplish the same thing. Maybe the phase is inverted. Back in a little bit.

Always, I'm a night owl.


Hmmmm, I think I was running out of phase. Doh! Maybe it sounds better.

Holy cow, that does sound better. Please read the manual. I thought it sounded a little funny last night. I feel a little stupid.

Aw, we've all done that with C-J gear at least once.

Keep in mind that the ET-5 is also phase-inverting, so you should check carefully how the speakers should be wired when running the ET-5 in combination with the CA-200.

But, RTFM is always a good idea, too!

I think if I do add the ET5, then the speakers go back to normal and the ET5 will take care of the phase inversion.

Yes, I think that's right, but it would be a good idea to double-check.
