Congratulations Joel, Jadis makes some of the most beautiful tube gear. I’ve never heard any Jadis other than at shows, but if it sounds as good as it looks, it should be very special.

Thanks Tony! It does sound special indeed, very full sound but with lots of details, decent bass and a pretty amazing soundstage. This unit is 25 year old so it has that vintage heavy/well built feel, it's been fully serviced and is in pristine cosmetic condition. Reminds me of my beloved ARC VT130SE but in more refined. Pretty happy with this catch

Congratulations....if I went back to tubes, Jadis would be 1 of the few names on a short list. When I've heard them, they were incredible.

Thanks Mark!

I have owned several tube push pull amps over the years, from ARC, CJ, VTL, Ayon, T+A, PrimaLuna, and have auditioned numerous others in friends systems and at shows.

I must say this Jadis is to my ears one of the most musically satisfying piece I've come across. Have me wonder whether I should keep an eye for some JA-80 monos

Btw I see your Valors should be able to accommodate any kind of tube amps... you're in a good place to play around

EXACTLY! That is one of the reasons I had them built needing 4ch of external amps vs only 2 or fully self-powered (also an option) to allow ultimate fun in the future experimenting with cables and amps for mids and treble separately as audiophile winds and whims change. This is a true destination speaker so I plan on having some fun down the road with its myriad possibilities. I held off 4+ years before ordering them, heard them multiple times, tried another top10 (IMHO speaker), several others owned or loaned, hit two Munich shows and heard countless other top flight speakers along the way in homes and dealers plus Munich shows. That all confirmed what I believed which led to getting them last June and being 100% in my choice.

Elipsas i think.
I heard Jadis with SF Elipsa a couple of times, and I loved it!
