Wow! I nearly had a home dem of JA 200s a long time ago, but somebody earlier in the queue bought them on me! I'm sure they're wonderful.

That looks a serious setup. Have heard a lot of valve amps in my time but never Jadis. Only one comment, close those curtains!

Of course!

Actually, I believe there's now a pair of JA200s in Cloney if you fancy joining the club yourself...

Yes, they did indeed end up staying Tony. And are making some very good sounds! Quite an amount of effort for them to physically fit in the living room but very happy with the new self made rack that I put together to do the trick.

Definitely a real step up from the previous JA80's. Came with Winged C 6550c's. Which certainly seem to live up to following they have in various parts. Although in truth I have yet to try any other valve options with them.

As Si says, there's another used pair that just came into Cloney. For a truly phenomenal price! Far, far less than anything I've seen in last 18mths... I'm sure will find a good home very soon.
