Viking ck out Jadis and be done with it. Have a Jadis Orch Refer 4 yrs, NO REPAIRS!!! The Jadis has the least repairs of any tube amp in the world. Let me see another tube amp top that record. 
Is it worth upgrading B&W DM303 to B&W CM2?
Ellery just abit of sarcasm about all these letters and numbers we are finding palced in front or behind a ceratin model. Its all too confusing. Numbers and letters have only one purpose, to impress, its a ad tactic, a ploy to get your interest. I...
