Jadis DA88S mkii integrated

jadis in its heyday was well known to run power tubes very hard, seems like that is still the case

jadis is beautiful stuff, great sounding, if not for the faint of heart in ownership... they deserve a comeback into the conversation as tippy top tube amplification

really don't hear much about jadis anymore... they were one of the truly great tube amp brands 

i see from the tas review bluebird was importer... that outfit has had a checkered history for the imported brands it has represented... many a maker have moved on

*sigh*
