i had both ja500 and ja200, Side by side comparison, Ja200 is a sweeter amps and more organic. The ja500 is a much powerful amps, inefficient speakers 86 db and below, will work well. Both amps are totally different in sound quality and application. Personally, i prefer the ja200.
Jadis ja-200 vs ja500
Does anyone here have experience with these two amps?
I used to have the JA800 (3 units) and loved it but unfortunately had to sell it when I moved overseas. Lately, I have been considering going back to the big Jadis, but I wonder whether it should be the 200 or the 500. I know the 200 is class A and the 500 is A/B, which means the 200 gets very hot and might be more colored than the 500. By the way, I am talking about the old models circa 2000.
At the moment I have JA30 and Luxman m900U, and I am looking for an amp that would be able to combine the traits of both of these. As far as I remember, (and that was 20 years ago), my old JA800 was just that.
