The low rating on Amazon needs to be interpreted... by filtering out all the reviews made by people who had no idea of what the amplifier was for, and therefor 'put a high quality pump at the bottom of a muddy hole' or, applied it incorrectly.

The more knowledge and experience required to apply a product effectively, the lower the average review score will be, due to the skewing by ignorant reviewers blaming the product for their ignorance.

The CPA-19 is a very good option, with almost as good noise performance as the PA-18. In your application, they are interchangeable. I would not suggest the PA-18 if there were strong signals present.
