| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Gary, the CAT preamp is the heart of the system...you can work around it, but it will be the strength of your system with most any ancillary gear....like you said it is the engine. Before, I think you were working with a 4 cylinder motor....now yo... | |
| The Jadis JA200Mk2 review---or slam! Soundsrealaudio, I like the CAT Preamp....it’s a superb match with my Jadis amps. | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Gwalt, glad to hear that the CAT Black Path preamp finally showed up and now you will be enjoying it in your super system.To say a BIG smile will appear on your face once it is broken in a little, is an understatement! These preamps rarely show up... | |
| The Jadis JA200Mk2 review---or slam! rcprince, since I am very happy with my new JA30Mk2’s, I have no intention of selling them....and as such I couldn’t care less whether the review impacts Jadis values or not. However, I do think that the JA200Mk2 review was very poorly done and sh... | |
| The Jadis JA200Mk2 review---or slam! I seriously doubt, knowing the Jadis amps, that the DAC that JVS was using will have enough output to really drive the amp...while this may work with other amps...like a Zesto BIA. I think a great deal of what JVS heard can be attributed to a mism... | |
| The Jadis JA200Mk2 review---or slam! soundsrealaudio, I would suspect that the new Jadis amps would work very well with the Vivid's. IMO, the sweet spot of the Jadis line is the amp that I now enjoy...the JA30Mk2; not sure if this would have enough grunt to drive the larger Vivid's..... | |
| The Jadis JA200Mk2 review---or slam! bdp24, I think you have an excellent point there. Although I suspect that most readers would know that Altec Valencia's have a very specific sound....which may or may not appeal to everyone. Onhwy61, I did not see anywhere in the article a referen... | |
| The Jadis JA200Mk2 review---or slam! Onhwy61, just one problem...is it not the reviewer’s job to try and make sure that the gear under review does NOT have a compatibility issue with his existing gear?...and if so, report on that fact!If JVS speaker’s were not ideal as far as a match... | |
| The Jadis JA200Mk2 review---or slam! Indeed, I am very happy with the midrange reproduction from my new Jadis amps. However, the lows and highs are equally as impressive on my system, the amps are tremendously ‘resolving ‘. More so in fact than any other amp I have had in my system. ... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? I have now had the amazing Jadis JA30Mk2 in my system for a few months. Last night, after a long listening session, one thing struck me that these amps have more than any other amp I have heard....Resolution. I was playing the MFSL Anadisc Muddy W... | |
| Musician vs. audiophile As an ex-pro musician, I can see where your wife is coming from..a lot of highly touted gear isn't that much of a step up over what is used in the pro audio field. However, I happen to think that most musicians tend to discount one thing....that t... | |
| Cartridges: Complete Scam? I have been in the market for a new cartridge for quite some time now. One thing that really annoys me is the huge mark-up the US reps assign to these products. For example, a MSL cartridge can be had in Japan ( country of origin) for slightly les... | |
| Ikea Eket shelves with a large vinyl collection? No experience with the Eket, but I am suing the Kallax line...and they are very good for holding multiple LP's. I think the Eket is less sturdy. | |
| Does anybody own a Jeff Rowland Daemon Integrated Amp.? I have heard the Daemon on two different occasions. It is an excellent integrated with some very nice ergonomics. I thought the sound was good, only eclipsed by the various tube amps that I heard at the same events.The sound is also very much of t... | |
| Review: Audio Art IC-3 SE Interconnect I would like to add that I recently acquired a pair of Audio Art Se-1 power cables. These come with the superb Furutech Fi-28(r) connectors. To say that these power cables are absolutely superb would be an understatement! Previously, I had been de... |
