It is a perfect match with the also newly developed PA100 power amplifier. This preamplifier is available in either fully balanced or single ended version. The design clearly shows that this unit was developed in the pure Jadis tradition of building quality and musicality. The listening of these electronics are to be remembered as one of the best we were given to listen to. Even if Jadis uses pentodes instead of tetrodes as usually found in their preamplifiers, it was in order to get more definition and musicality. Extremely musical and vivid with an impressing tonal accuracy and punch. No need to focus to unscramble the message as it gets your attention by its communicative realism.
