Jadis amps and pre-amps still competitive?

Still competitive in terms of sonic performance and proud of ownership, but entry ticket is higher than other competitive companies as those you mentioned.

Trelja: A friend here also applied some bias adjustment to his DA5 amps following Jadis instructions. I am not a tube expert (my friend is), but I remember he placed the bias just in the upper limit for the EL34 and sound immproved a lot for the good.

Trelja: I have my weekly audio-buddies meeting and will get the specifics for you.

Hi - Talked to my friend last night who owns a DA5.

He will send instructions to adjust bias at a higher setting shortly, that by the way were provided by Jadis (so no vudu-like mods in this case).

He told me that it is auto-bias and not (????) and the trick resides in some passive controlers within the DA5 circuit (whatever that means...), anyway.. I will get the instructions from him later and will post it for your info.

They are - but should live in a Jadis world (I mean using a Jadis power amp)
