JADIS DEFY 7 SPIT SPUTTER

I dont mean to get off the subject, but Jadis has always been on my short list to buy and try. Isnt the beauty of a tube amp design is its easy of repair. Ive been told that there a less than a dozen platforms by which tube amps are based therefore any qualified tech should be able to repair most problems encountered. Most manufacturers do not use custom caps or resisitors which are commonly the problem, therefore getting replacement would be somewhat easy. Am I wrong here? I am fortunate to live near a hobbyist/amp designer who has managed to diagnsose and repair every tube amp problem ive had.

The spitting is caused by the point resistor for the driver
tubes. It is a 100K, 3 Watt resistor. BTW, Jadis transformers are guaranteed for life. If one fails, the owner does not pay for a new one. It is replaced free of
charge. The Mark III never sold for $4500.00. The west
coast Jadis dealer is Brooks Berdan at 626-359-9131. He
is located in Monrovia, CA. Hope this helps. Good luck.
