This ET-5 is CJ's best mid level to come out in years. Yes, the screws are off on the cover pictured as I was swapping the tube at the time. I am a CJ collector and I'd say this build quality and the amount that it takes to build this pre, they could not sell it today for what they sell their mid-levels for. This ET-5 has No issues, what so ever. I've used AMPREX as well as Gold Lion's. Comes with remote and CJ box. Check my feedback; it is excellent for value. Don't chase lesser Pre's when in my opinion the ET-5 has too many strengths.
A GAT sound at a fraction of the price. . Don't take it from me,
[CJ's site: In this instance, we have embodied the technology of the GAT Preamplifier in the more cost effective ET5 enhance triode line-stage preamplifier at a more affordable price.
The circuitry of the ET5 follows closely that of the GAT line-stage preamplifier. The audio circuit is elegant in its simplicity. An audio amplifier stage consisting of a single-ended triode amplifier provides the voltage gain. This amplifier stage is connected to the preamplifier outputs through a high-current MOSFET buffer, which achieves a very low output impedance, making the ET5 extremely flexible in the choice of interconnect cables and amplifiers.]
Many positive reviews on this lush and wonderful pre.ET5 Enhanced Triode Preamplifier
Introduced in 2009, the GAT Preamplifier continues conrad-johnson’s dominant position atop the rankings of reference preamplifiers.
An important benefit of pursuing state-of-the-art designs is that the circuits and techniques developed in our flagship products are frequently directly applicable to our entire line of products. In this instance, we have embodied the technology of the GAT Preamplifier in the more cost effective ET5 enhance triode line-stage preamplifier at a more affordable price.

DC voltage is supplied to the circuit by our latest discrete voltage regulator that isolates the audio circuit from the power line by maintaining negligible impedance across the audio frequency band. Infra-sonic noise is minimized by operating the tube filaments (heaters) on a dc voltage supplied by a separate regulated power supply. The ET5 is also notable for convenience and ease of use. The unit features input selection and level adjustment by microprocessor-controlled relays, with controls available both at the front panel and via a full-function remote.
