Those trying to get the old JC1’s cheaper may want to wait as these new ones should reduce the price of the old one used. And look at these babies do current

@christianb5s4 Kanta... Nice, yeah I wouldn't feel too compelled. Honestly the price difference of a JC5 to JC1+ being 7-10k... I would invest elsewhere (sub's/DAC) I did all of the above, DAC, amps, sub's, speakers, cables and power conditioner. So mine was kinda like an all in push since I have 3 systems now at my new house (possibly better off just with one dream system) with my one main system in a communal and large area and then my second system in my office/listening room, last one system in my workshop.

Out of curiosity, what sub's and DAC are you running?

@ja_kub_sz  For 2 channel listening, no subs yet. For the rest of the setup, Lumin U1 streamer w/ X1 PSU, Denafrips Terminator+ DAC, Pass Labs XP22 pre, various GIK room treatments, and very good cabling. It's a great system, but as we know, the curiosity of improvement is there. As it sits, I'm extremely happy with only certain areas that in my imagination could be improved slightly mainly in bit more midrange and a more refined high frequency response (but not veer into harshness).

 

Purely off price alone, the JC5 is the cheapest part of the whole system by quite a margin not that it necessarily means a lot. I'm also considering Coda 16 as another top amp contender. The challenge is in my area, all the dealers I've visited do not allow home demos no matter the brand.

@christianb5s4 wow Coda 16 is incredible. Was considering a Coda myself, but not the 16. I got a screening deal on my JC1+ direct from Parasound after they used the amps at a show. So new essentially, but absolute not new pricing. When I was talking to them they told me I could purchase the one they were showcasing and did just that.

@ja_kub_sz A good deal certainly never hurts! One great thing about buying used and smart is break in is done for you.
