I bought my first pair off eBay pacific tv out of Canada, and 20min ago just purchased a pair of ebay.

Quick question (and I suspect I already know the answer, but heyho....)

I am the very contented owner of the Continental V2 and love the tube sound I get from it. I do find it a little noisy with low impedance cans and iems, but other than that it's a gorgeous amp.

I've been eyeing up both the CDM and the Cv5, and wondered, is there a very substantial improvement in SQ and performance compared to the V2?

If anyone's had experience of two or even all three of these amps, I'd much appreciate your thoughts!

I don’t own the new CDM and bought the old version by the end of last year basically same price like the new one. However, I like very much the look with glass of the old version and have not heard any noises or hissing sounds from the old one since I bought it.

You’ll need a pair if you got CDM besides single Mullard would be good for CV5.

hey, I just received my CDM. The stock Philips 6111a's, and ordered a pair of the sonotone's as well.

how would you describe the sound quality/attributes of the Tung Sol 6111's?

The Sonotone's are in Stock at ALO right now!

They are rarer than hens teeth by now.

Probably, but with tubes, they seem to always be lurking somewhere, just need a determined buyer!
cuz I want a pair of those Mullard 6112's as well
