| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? It is has been a long time since I posted on the Jadis JA Mk.ll amp. with KT150 tubes. I have tried the telefunken 12au7/12ax7 for driver/input tubes and they are highly dynamic but not as musical as the Mullard 12au7/Siemens 12ax7 tubes which I h... | |
| Need amp suggestions for Hedlund Horns.... Jond:That is it then. Thanks Jond. My memory sucks but I did have a friend who had both a Korneff 45 built by Jeff and a Min one and liked them both. He bought the Min one after selling the Korneff and wanted another Korneff and Jeff had stopped m... | |
| Need amp suggestions for Hedlund Horns.... Charles:Thank you. I believe there is guy at Wu Audio that is building a Korneff Replica. All I know is he is from Asia and copied the design. I think he goes by Wu?I had some trouble with 300B tubes being microphonic with the long plates into a h... | |
| Need amp suggestions for Hedlund Horns.... I heard both 2a3 and a 45 on my Edgarhorn speakers and of the two preferred the 45. The caveat to all of this is the design quality of the amp....power transformers/coupling caps/power supplies etc. I also owned a top quality 300B but the 45 was a... | |
| Need amp suggestions for Hedlund Horns.... I agree with Charesdad if you know the efficiency of your horns and if the crossover is complex? I think you have to get that decided before you go forward with your tube power. Beware that the design of an SET amplifier is as important as the tub... | |
| Need amp suggestions for Hedlund Horns.... I am not familiar with your horns or the drivers involved but you do have a big room. Since there is a popular play in 300B tubes manufactured today with many choices I would check a 300B with a stiff power supply for bass control. There is a Bor... | |
| GAMUT audio speakers owners. Hello Mountainsong:I recently purchased a pair of Gamut R7Si and am driving them with a pair of Jadis JA30Mkll amps. with the Gamut D3i preamp. This is a pretty heavenly combo as long as you don't want to wake the neighborhood. I have owned compre... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Hi Charlesdad:Everything you said above comes from your years of experience in audio and I could not agree more.I did get to hear the LV in Chicago the first time I was there with the JA 30ll but not with this preamp. so I will let you know when I... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Hi Charlesdad and Butler, Thanks for the words of encouragement. As they say so far so good. It was a long thought process to make this switch but this combination won me over and my wire works perfect as I thought it would. Something went astray... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? I have an update on the Jadis JA30ll. I finally got delivery of my JA30ll with silver plates. The amp. arrived at the 90 day mark from order date. This was a bit frustrating since I started selling some gear I am moving away from and I was without... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Hi Butler:I will post all of my system updates when I get everything finalized. There are several and I am anxious to get the amps. here for sure. None of my changes are without careful consideration and audition...most of that being in Chicago bu... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Hi Butler:I just went on here for the first time in ages. I just heard today from George at Kyomi that my new Silver JA30ll amps. shipped today from France. This is just shy of 3 months from when I ordered them. George told me that it was reported... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Hi Charlesdad:These new amps. seem to have a lot of the sonic characteristics of a good SET design with more power and control. My comparison was only based on my LV speakers with the older amps. against the newer ones.I will have a very accurate ... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? So George is it true on the silver faceplate? If so is there a picture of that somewhere? I think I might prefer it? | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Hi Butler:I only heard the amp. with the KT150's but it was sure good. The amp. has strap changes internally for the other tubes so time will tell. One thing to remember is that none of the listening involved "cooked" gear and I personally find th... |
