Anyone have/ordered the Job 225?


There's almost no consumer impressions of this amp on the internet... but the 6moons review is intriguing.

Hi Guys,

Good read those 4 pages.

Have anybody tried already to lower the gain of this amp by changing the resistors? I would be very interested in this mod as my speakers are 95db/w and my Pre pumps 3.7v so I am afraid I will be adjusting the knob using microscope... (no remote).

Thanks
Thanks Devilboy for coming back on this.

I have same approach as you. Would prefer not to add anything to the path if not an absolute must, hence the idea of moding the internal circuit.

I am afraid that all the volume regulation with this sensitivity and output of mu Pre is going to close in 1h span (so lets say min listening levels at 8 o clock and blowing up the speakers at 9 oclock).

I guess I will have to try and see for myself.

Pre is in analogue domain and it is Eximus DP-1.

Cheers
Thanks Devliboy,

Just got confirmation that it was shipped to me today. Very good. Hopefully I should have it by Friday! Yay.

Guys I am trying to figure it out where are the RCA inputs on the Job - I cannot see them on any of the photos due to angles.

Can you tell me on which side and how close to the edge are they (I need to figure out the length of RCAs that I need).

Should I look for warm cables for job or neutral and detailed (and transparent) will be ok or am I risking getting into bright / harsh areas? (my speakers are on the warm side of things).

Thanks again,
seb
Devilboy thank you for letting me know about RCAs. The info helped me to get the right length of RCAs (hopefully).
Hi Guys,

Two quick questions about JOB.

1. Is your JOB straight? My Wobbles on 3 feet on level surface (it does not wobble but when you press on one of corners it will transfer the mass indicating that it is not straight and that one feet is slightly hanging in air).

Could you try yours and let me know?

2. When I am very close to (5-10cm or 2-4 inches) I can hear a faint but present buzzing or vibration. When I put my ear against the top cover of it it becomes very apparent. I suspect it is a transformer inside but I cannot really tell as I am not an expert.

Could you bring you ear to the top cover and tell me if you hear anything? (when music is not playing ofc.

Finally my job had 0 run so far so I dont know if I will hear any buzzing through the speakers or not when in operation.

Cheers,
seb
