Thank you Jfrech!
Luckily the VFS were included in the deal. As for the power supply, both the Jazz and CDP include the Nagra ACPS II power supply. Now only one thing to do...sell my Spectral 360s and buy the Classic.
Enjoy the festive season!

Is it true that the Nagra Classic amp use SMPS power supply ? |
This is a quote from their brochure on Nagra's website:
"The unit operates in pure class A over a very large
power band and beyond in class AB. Each of the output
stages is based on tandem MOSFET transistors of
exceptional characteristics. Generally, assembly of
an equivalent output stage requires several pairs of
transistors, which is difficult to achieve precisely. The
simplicity of the CLASSIC AMP’s design is the key to its
musicality. The input and driver stages also contribute
equally to the overall performance and precision.
The Nagra CLASSIC AMP is characterised by its
stability, irrespective of the loads placed upon it. The
power circuits drew particular care in the design stage.
They are based upon an innovative concept: An over-
dimensioned transformer and a diode bridge are placed
upstream of the PFC decoupling stage, used to actively
correct the power factor. The filtering is achieved with a
bank of capacitors, totalling 300 000 μF.

This supply concept, which ensures efficient energy
transfer, allows immediate reaction on even the most
abrupt transients."
