Reviews on JungSon amp/preamp combo: JA-1/JA-99C

I’ve had a few things from Jungson, all purchased years ago so maybe they have changed. But my experience with all of it was bad enough there’s no way I would ever buy anything from them again. That goes even if they were made in the USA. Once you have company reps come out to your house, see first hand their amp is defective, promise to replace it under warranty, and then totally unprofessionally stop returning all your calls, well if you are still willing to give them your money at least after hearing my story you won’t be able to say nobody told you to expect to get ripped off.

My dealer by the way wound up replacing the amp at his own expense. They refused to honor their warranty even to him.

Caveat emptor.

Thanks for your reply. That's pretty bad. You purchased more than one JungSon gears and they were all bad?

I did not know this brand, but just recently came across a youtube review from ZeroFidelity. I don't know the guy (Sean?) at ZeroFidelity, but he seems to know what he is talking about and he doesn't seem to be a guy who is going to review a junk product and give a favorable review. But we all know that most products coming from China have reliability and support issues even though they may be good in the beginning.
The second reviewer pretty said the same thing the first reviewer said.

More comments, both negative and positive, would be appreciated. 

Also bought a power conditioner. Sound was okay, construction extremely cheap, really nothing more than a potted transformer and cap. So I tossed the outlets and crap chassis and still use the guts of it today. Then there were a couple of interconnects, still have and use those, but the finish on the RCAs went to crap within a year or so. Just overall poor quality stuff. 

This was all like 20 years ago. Its possible they're better. Couldn't imagine being any worse. Its the customer service I would worry about more than anything. Besides of course supporting the CCP. Which don't kid yourself, you buy it you are. But you meet a couple guys like I did, guys pretty high up the distribution food chain, have them come in your home, lie to your face, lie to your dealer, lie in a way so blatant that looking back on it now I would have told them to THEIR FACE what you're saying makes no sense you can only be lying. But 20 years younger and dumber I decided to hope for the best. 

Which is what you get if you are young and dumb enough to buy Jungson: hope. Good luck with that!

I guess many of us fell into this trap.
In my case, it's not been that bad.
I've purchased one integrated tube amp (Yaqin MC10L, $550) and tube preamp/phono (Yaqin MS12B, $250) directly from China over 10 years ago. I played around with different tubes and it was fun to notice the difference of sound from different tubes. I also played around with bias adjusting after changing tubes each time, and I blew up few resistors and replaced them by myself, ... on MC10L. It sound pretty good overall, but I eventually sold it.
I don't use the preamp but I still have it. It sounds OK for under $300.
I see they are still sold new at around $1000 and $400. At least these two models did not seem to have as many problems as you had with what you bought from China. 
From reading online reviews, JungSon appeared to me to be at least as good as Yaqin in sound and build quality, and that's why I'd like to hear about them from Agon users. 
It appears that most of Agoners either have no experience on them, or just are not interested in talking about this Chinese brand, or any products from China.

My Plinius SA102 eventually died (due to my stupid mistake) and I needed a new (temporary) amp. I have a few spare amps (Nakamichi, Mitsubishi, and AR) but they are far inferior to Plinius.
Against millercarbon’s horrible experience with Jungson, I made a plunge and bought them. It took a less than a week to get to Michigan from China. Well, Jungson exceeded my expectation. I cannot say it is better than Plinius, but it is certainly better than my old Japanese amps and quite close to AR 150M.2 which cost 4 times more than Jungson 20 years ago.
My AR will go to eBay soon.
The preamp JA-1 is also very good, but certainly it has its limit compared to my other preamps (Plinuius M16 and PrimaLuna Diaglogue).
Jungson JA99C is rated as 80wpc class A, but it sounds as loud as 125wpc class A Plinius. I am not a big fan of Chinese audio products, but I cannot but give a big thumb up to Jungson amp. Hope its reliability is as good as its sound.
It will take a while to service my Plinius, but since then I will certainly enjoy Jungson. After I get Plinius serviced, Jungson will work in my second setup.
