I've had a JC5 since release. I drove Sopra 2's originally and more recently, Scala Evo's.
It works well. However, I sold my JC2. The combo of the high gain from the JC5 and high efficiency of the Scalas forces you to trim the "gain" (line voltage) or attenuate elsewhere to the detriment of the overall sound at lower volumes. My ARC LS28SE is far better.
JC1+ have the advantage of reduced (real) gain, 23 or 29. This should allow a better match for users of the JC2 premap and Focal speakers.
