upgrading JADIS JA-200, JPS2 and JPS3


Hi,
any experience welcomed in terms of upgrading components (capacitors, resistors, internal wiring) even modifications of audio circuits!
Shoot...

Thanks for your answers,
One question for Rcprince:
Could you develop the mods done by Andy, is it only a change of condensators?
Also, where do you place the audio note silver oil caps? Do you replace them all or just you change a few of them?
Which different kinds of condensators exist in the preamps (JPS 2 and JPS 3) and amp (JA 200)? I think there is also caps for the external power supplies
Hi Microstrip, my units date from before I purchased them in 1994... at this time there was not even a protection fuse! I use old Kimber KCTG interconnects and a Kimber black pearl speaker cable with maggies 3.5 (sorry, I went to Africa eight years and did not follow technological innovations>>>joke)
Even Jadis folks evolve, for their new anniversary version of the 80 family they changed a few things, including capacitors (they look yellow...)...
Would be interesting to know which of these upgrades can be applied to the other models!
Hi,
I have read modification examples published on the net:
http://www.high-endaudio.com/Modifications.html#Pre
concerning preamps (example given of JP-80) and power amps (example given on golden tube 300B amp) and would like to know what you think about applicability to jadis equipments, in particular JA-200, JPS 2 and JPS 3 and if somebody tried anything suggested on this site for mods
Hi Rcprince,
The JPS3 is a two blok phono stage with an external psu, looks physically like the JPS2.
When you change coupling capacitors, what is your favorite brand, I understand Audio note, copper but did you try the silver and other hi-end capacitors like mundorf, ?
