Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great???

Just auditioned the DA88S with Kt120 and the i50 with KT150. 

Does anyone know the difference between the DA88s and the new i88 other than the different tubes?

is the i88 replacing the DA88s?

thanks 

Well a big shout out to gwalt...because thanks to him, I am now the happy owner of the magnificent Jadis JA30mk2’s!!
These amps are an absolutely incredible sounding piece of gear... Far more resolving, far more palpable and simply way better at all manner of music making than any other amp I have heard....and I have heard a lot of them!
Pairing them with my customized CAT preamp is a match made in heaven. Tonight after hearing the amps for the first time, I now know why I had these on my radar when I posted the OP.
If you get a chance to hear these, I highly recommend that you do so....an incredible update on a classic Jadis amp. I simply have not heard better......

Daveyf, 
Congratulations! The Jadis JA 30 MK II are beautiful visually and no doubt every bit as beautiful sounding.  Some say that the SR Guarneri Homage require considerable power to get the most from them.  The JADIS 30 MK II provide up to 45 watts class A Per channel.  This tells me that they have exceptionally good output transformer and power supply to match so well with these speakers. Based on your description this pairing is superb.  I predict that you'll be very happy for many years.

Thanks, Charles. The SF GH are not that easy of a load. IME, they will not work with very low powered/flea powered amps. However, with the Jadis JA 30 Mk2, as you pointed out, the transformers/power supply are exceptional and since I am using a small room, the 45 watts/ch works fine.
The sound is absolutely amazing with the new KT150’s. Incidentally, these amps also have NOS Siemens tubes in the driver stage, a significant upgrade over the stock EH’s, IMO.

I am glad you have found beauty in the Jadis JA30ll amplifiers. As I stated in this post prior those amplifiers bring as much emotion as any amplifier I have ever used in my 40 years of listening and I have owned quite a few marvelous creations. The bass is very good for their power rating combined with the Jadis magical midrange.
As we both know, this hobby is all about matching each component to the listening environments and their mates. With that said this is quite difficult and when you score you can celebrate.
Have one on me and enjoy the music!
