Jadis amps and pre-amps still competitive?

How does Jadis amps (Defy7, JA 200, ect.) and pre-amps (JPL MK2, 80 MC), compare with the more popular amps of today from VTL, LAMM, and Audio Research. You don't hear much about them anymore. I remember that they were highly regarded when Mr. Victor Goldstein was the importer.

This is what it says in Jadis' website:

_________________________________________

2- POWER PENTODES

KT90 : With its plate and screen dissipation of 60W, the KT90 is the most reliable tube that we know of. This is why our JA 800 amplifier uses this tube exclusively. The KT90 will also be supplied as the standard choice in the new JADIS range (JA 50, JA 100, JA 250)

6550C : The most widely used power tube. We use Russian tubes produced in St. Petersburg .

6CA7 With a sweeter sound than the KT90 or the 6550, this tube can be used on a large variety of amplifiers.

KT88 : This is the reference tube for audiophiles. We use tubes specialy built for us

I have a DA8 and i've always thought it was auto bias. If it's NOT, how do i bias it?? I don't see any little screws or terminals for the voltmeter.

Can someone kindly enlighten me?

Thanks.
