Description
Available in balanced (JPS2S) or unbalanced (JPS2) version.
The Jadis JPS2 is a line preamplifier which uses three ECC83 for the line function and ECC82 to adapt the impedance on the CD entry. Its specific power supply recreates a voltage for the module with a 80 Hz frequency in order to avoid problems that can occur due to the 50 or 60 Hz frequency from the mains supply.
The high voltage is regulated by two tubes: 1 x EF86 and 1 x EL84.
Golden connector and further connections are in copper and silver which assure the faithful broadcast of the audio signal.
The "point-to-point" wiring gives to the sound stage plenty of aeration and dimension.
JPS2 is available in balanced or unbalanced version.
