This is an outstanding example of CJ EV-1. In perfect condition inside and out, works flawlessly. Conservatively rated to 7/10 due to the unit's age.
This review barely does justice to the unit: https://www.soundstage.com/vinyl/vinyl200203.htm
With new tubes in my system, it matches the performance of Nagra VPS (with the latter's SS stage off). I replaced it with Pass XP-25, had to spend 10x to outperform it (mostly in low bass and upper treble) without losing much of the CJ tube magic.
I had no issues using the unit with an Ortofon Cadenza Blue that outputs 0.5mV. For lower-output MC cartridges, you may have to use a step-up transformer in front of it.
Comes with original box, power cable and accompanying material. I'm including the original tubes (installed) along with the ones I bought new from thetubestore.com last year (see image, used for less than 300 hours).
