Yea man! Ive been curious whether or not John Curl had anything to do with the new model? Ill need to see if I can get Parasound to get me a sample to compare.

This is a great phono preamp that I came close to buying.  I went with an LP1 from Audio Research over this as I preferred the sound.  I have a local store that had both

As someone who just recently bought a JC3, I wish I would have known about this upgrade.  :(

I wonder if there is an upgrade path with Parasound.

Hey guys, just got an email back from Richard at Parasound. Sounds like production is a little tight right now but I should be able to get my hands on the JC3+ sometime in March. Ill keep ya all posted!

And nice to see comparisons of the JC3 and the Avid Pulsus (a long time favorite of mine) in the Pulsus review you just posted: http://youtu.be/ECkZUFRzfko
