Torres, why not reach out to Ken Stevens....I'm sure he will be happy to supply you with a replacement...after a few hours of Yak
, LOL

Ken doesn’t believe he needs one..
If his business is good enough for his liking , who are we to argue.
If/when I try tube amps later this summer, his mono's might be the ticket if I don't go ML3's
Just curious: what does that have to do with CAT not having a website?

Nothing. I was interested in specs of his current amp offerings. I find it surprising he doesn’t have a website in this day and age.
Ken's amps are great, but it's his preamp that is the real star of the show.
CAT is an excellent alternative to Lamm IMHO. Personally, i prefer the CAT Legend Black Path to the Lamm LL1.1.

Hope this helps.
Excellent choice, and I think you would get a significant upswing in SQ over your current Pass labs.
The phono stage in the CAT preamp...both Legend and Renaissance is superb, IMO. Saves a great deal over a stand alone phono stage.
Hello Torres i have the papers that come with the cat jl 2 sign,. If you send me your email i can send you a copy.
Greetings hj
They are great Amps christian , i never heard the ml3 Though, but you cant go wrong with Cat and in your new big room you might use a bit of power
Jl 3 is 82 kg. Each. As is my stereo amp.
Jl 7 only 40 kg a piece ??
Hmm whats the deal here , dont wanna skip on Transformer s /power Banks imo

I think the biggest gain Will be dynamics compared to pass labs, and i bet your in for a audiothrill as the Wilsons are An easy load so are my speakers
