Hello Djverne,

I'm curious about the inputs and dac of the Job Integrated. Is the Job dac good enough to replace a Metrum Octave dac or MDAC?
Does the Job Integrated do a AD-DA conversion on the analog input?
If so it would do a second AD-DA conversion on an input from an external dac. That would not be favorable. It would make an external dac a no-go.
Now 6moons speaks highly of the integrated dac and comparing it to the Metrum Hex my Job INTegrated is on it's way! 
Delivery is on thursday 14/1/16. Burn in will follow. Then  I'll compare Metrum Octave + Sonneteer Alabaster to the INTegrated. 

A few weeks ago I had a Rega Elex-R to compare with the Alabaster. The Rega didn't have the advantage. The Alabasters seems to be the quickest of them both. 

I have hopes for the INTegrated. But I don't know what to expect.


Happy with the Job INT between Pioneer N-30 streamer and Penaudio Cenya speakers. Any one else got the INT at home?
Very good, another comparison with a Metrum Hex!
I've settled with the Job INT and sold my Sonneteer Alabaster and Metrum Octave. Especially when playing softly I think the INT is more pronounced as the Sonneteer. I like it.

I don’t think the INT has a to prominent bass. In my small room I do have a problem with 54Hz bass. I had this problem in the same amount with my former Sonneteer and Rega amps. The INT is no different in that aspect.

I use digtal EQ to reduce 54Hz bass. Works well enough.

Recently upgraded my Pioneer N-30 streamer to Aries Mini. Big difference in spaciousness.
Hmm,.. still got mine on the standard power cord. I'm skeptical. 299 USD is a lot of money compared to the amp itself. Could you recommend a power cord that does the trick and doesn't break the bank? Thanks.
Thanks for your response. I'll look them up.

Got a DIY Teflon tubed twisted powercord from a friend. Is does have a positive effect. 

Next comes a LPS-1 power supply for microRendu.

Hello, I own an "old" INTegrated. Very happy with it. I'm very interested in pictures of the inards of the new INTegrated. To see if the change of the analog input is appearend.

Greetings, please do post a pic soon. Maybe this is a change that is easy to diy...
