I have my beloved Jadis up for sale, it's a DA30 and was bought around 2007 (2 years old at that stage I think). Hasn't had a huge amount of use over the years, I ran KT88 but will sell with original 6550 Jadis valves. Blurb below. Can offer home demo to anyone interested. Looking for 2300
Class A integrated Tube Amp, Fully Functional
The Jadis DA30 is a tube integrated amplifier that utilised 6550 output tubes and has only line stage inputs. Inside is all hard-wired. I currently use the Golden Lion KT88. As soon as the glowing tubes have warmed up, it takes effortless control. The overwhelming impression is of a very 'live' quality, particularly striking on vocals, with excellent stereo imaging in terms of width, depth and solidity. On good recordings the Jadis gave a superior portrayal of ambient details, displaying that delicate recovery of the 'edges' of things, which is what analogue is all about. The bass was thought extended, if a little soft. Switching to CD, there were moments when the Jadis seemed to be unveiling new levels of detail with stunning realism. The detail and delicacy were associate with a pure, 'liquid' quality of sound which was genuinely transparent to the quality or otherwise of the source material and source components. Again, on suitable recordings, the DA30 showed the ability to 'sort out' the complex sound of a reverberant acoustic which all too often replays as a strident jangle.
