What is the best integrated tube amp under $3k ?
If you are intent on replacing the JOR, Clio09's VAC suggestion is a good one. I'll add Air Tight and Audio Note to what I believe should be a very short list. 
What is the best integrated tube amp under $3k ?
Personally, I would keep the JOR. So far, I've not found anything that eclipses a Jadis, though I want to try an Audio Note.I recently got my DA30 up on its feet, after spending a couple of years on the shelf gathering dust while I used my DA60 in... 
Jadis DA30: fuse keeps blowing
I could fix your DA30, and can do it at low cost. However, if it needs a new output transformer, I'm not sure how we would go about sourcing one, as Pierre Gabriel may need to be involved due to it needing to come directly from Jadis. 
coincident speakers do you have troubadors
I'd like to personally thank everyone who both participated in this thread, and have contacted me offline for their perspective and support. It's been encouraging to say the least.

Israel Blume, "Not only is it totally classless for any manufacturer to comment negatively about any competing product in a public forum, to do so covertly and under the guise of being an objective audiophile with no vested interest, falls under t...

Thanks for your encouragement, Montejay, I appreciate it.I was involved with Fried before Bud passed away a few years ago, and in my opinion, Bud and I had some really exciting ideas we wanted to move forward with. While the Troubass is sure enoug...

The pity party aside, if you cannot get the specs on the Troubass, Horsnit, just let me know. I'll post the details so you can put a pair together. 
Jadis DA60
Jadis DA60 can use any tube among the EL34/6CA7/KT77 and 6550/KT88/KT90 variants. Jadis says it themselves, and I've done so as well in mine with no problems whatsoever. Why do you need anything more than what the people who build the amplifier ha...

Israel Blume, "Coincident has grown tremendously over the years."TOTAL BS. A company which sells direct should offer pricing more attractive than one with a dealer network, which only adds another layer of cost into the equation. However, as the C...

Thanks much for the encouragement, guys!!!We're definitely stoked, and are going to make a serious run at this thing. I realize I'm a born contrarian, but I believe that $995 gives us a lot of leeway to offer products that can kick some serious bu...

I'm going to stand right up here and call you a liar, Israel Blume.The fact is I've received several e-mails since last night that refute your claim about answering every e-mail that you receive. Beyond that, even before receiving them, Horsnit's ...

Jax2, as always, thank you for your insights. I agree 100% that it's imperative that we shift production back to these shores.You'll perhaps be interested to know that while you stated that AtmaSphere suits the bill, but is outside of the pricepoi...

Israel Blume, "Your glib final sentence is uncalled for."If you look up the definition of "uncalled for" in the dictionary, you'll find the entry references using my name and opinion in the advertising on your website without my permisssion. I'm f...

By the way, I used to import/distribute a line of Chinese high-end audio components, one of which was one of the amplifiers Facten mentioned in comparison to the Rogue.The manufacturer was, at best, ambivalent about the quality of the products the... 
American-made integrated tube amplifiers
Your sentiment is commendable.I suggest you try the Rogue Cronus at $1795. Beyond that, if you should decide to sell it down the road, you'll find the resale value a Made in the USA component such as this provides in comparison to a Chinese produc...
