JMF Audio: Any experience with JMF Amps/Transport?

Some strong opinions from people who have absolutely no experience with either the products or the company.

JMF-Audio has been making the Kinoshita amplifiers since the 80's, not the other way around. Look at the Kinoshita amplifiers and DAC and you'll see the JMF logo on them. It is how I became aware of them since I'm obsessed with the sound of the Rey Audio and TAD monitors.

I visited them (From the US) years ago and their complete system is extraordinary. It is a bit of a journey to go and visit them but worth the trip. They are not a 'little French Company' but a self-sufficient manufacturer that has been building gear for several decades, they move carefully and bring out products when technology is mature and tested. The acclaim they got in Munich comes as no surprise.

I bought an amplifier from them (HQS6002D) and have been listening to it daily for 3 years now, it sounds great. I cannot think of any other amplifier I'd rather own, other than a bigger model of theirs. On paper they outperform anything out there.

As for their communication, you must have caught them at a busy time because they've always been very available in my case, via email, phone or in person. I visited them at a time when I made it clear I had absolutely no intention to buy anything from them and still I spend a full day at their auditorium.

Thank you plummox...it definitely must have been a busy period as they did get back around to communicate with me and subsequent communications have all been within the day. Apparently they 3.7 transport is now production ready and selling internationally. They did state they have not found the right dealer or distributor for the US as yet so for now, until I can manage to travel all the way to Europe, there is no way to hear the transport/any of their other gear. Thanks again!

I have intensive experience with JMF stereo DAC , pre , stereo power , line conditioner & full loom cables in my friend's system that using Magico Q3 .

Me & few audiophile friends did the AB test very carefully:
- JMF dac to Burmester 001 as cdp (use as cd transport for dac) , Esoteric P-02 & D-02 , Naim 555 also Burmester 969 cdt / 970 dac.
Results: JMF dac + Burmester 969 cdt combination is better than all above digital source. 

- Pre JMF better than his previous pre : FM Acoustics 255 mk. II. He was using Levinson no. 32 , Burmester & several other preamps before FMA pre.

- HQS-6002 pwr compared with Soulution 710 , Burmester 911 mk. 3 , Chord SPM-6000 monos & Accuphase A-200 monos. 
HQS-6002 better in all aspects in very big margin .

- JMF power conditioner a lot better than current Torus flagship power conditioner & Burmester power conditioner. 

JMF has very low noise floor , musicality that compareable to single ended triode (i'm a SET lover) , very refined & realistic sound that i never heard from other big brands.
Actually me & my friends were not expected the results since JMF was unknown before .

You won't believe if you not hear by yourself .

Plummox,
What was the price of  your  6002 stereo amp, and did you get it from them directly or thru  dealer in the USA?
Thanks

My comments converning JMF can't be more prescise than Plummox. A seious french company : more know from sovereigner than French. Whazt a shame !!!
