Offered is „I-70 Integrated Tube Amplifier with Volume Remote Control - practically new only 16-months used!“ by Jadis as second-hand device from the category „Tube-Fullamp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9466512886 ends on 15.11.2026 at 15:41 o'clock.
At €7,990, this is below the current new price of roughly €12,300–€13,850, so it lands at a solid discount for a current-production Jadis integrated rather than a stretch listing. In today’s used market, that makes it look fair to attractive if the amp is genuinely clean and fully serviced; it is not a bargain-basement price, but it is close enough to replacement cost to be sensible for a near-new example.
What you’re buying is a 50W KT170-powered, automatic-bias tube integrated with classic Jadis build, remote volume, and no built-in DAC or phono stage, so it’s a pure line-level amplifier for someone who already has sources sorted. The upside is the usual Jadis appeal: authoritative tube tone, strong parts-and-chassis quality, and a relatively current platform with modern KT170 output tubes; if the unit is only lightly used and includes the remote and original packaging, that adds real value.

Jadis Electronics, founded in 1983 near Carcassonne in Villedubert, France, by self-taught valve amplifier designer André Calmettes alongside partner Jean-Paul Caffi, embodies a passion for recapturing the emotion of live music through tube technology. Born from Calmettes' amateur radio tinkering and inability to afford commercial amps, the brand quickly earned acclaim for its handmade craftsmanship, with every component meticulously selected and assembled. The name "Jadis," meaning "in olden days," evokes nostalgia while signaling a commitment to timeless excellence in French hi-fi heritage.
The company specializes in high-end valve amplification, producing pure class-A stereo and power amplifiers, preamplifiers, and RIAA phono stages, all handcrafted with proprietary output transformers. These transformers, wound by hand and encased in special resin for thermal stability and low noise, handle up to 2500 watts before saturation, ensuring absolute stability across any load. Jadis has expanded modestly into turntables, CD players, and DACs, maintaining a focus on analog warmth over digital proliferation, with no foray into speakers, headphones, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audiophile market, Jadis commands reverence as the "Rolls-Royce" of tube amps, prized by discerning collectors for its dynamic, uncolored sound and indestructible build—transformers even carry lifetime guarantees. Recent ownership changes, including Jérémie Malfroot's acquisition, preserve this boutique ethos amid global expansion, appealing to buyers seeking artisanal French mastery over mass production.
