Angeboten wird „JA 200 Series II“ von Jadis als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Röhren-Endverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 8643385904 endet am 01.08.2026 um 06:24 Uhr.
This is an ambitious ask, clearly above the typical used market: at €14,950, it sits well over the €7,559 75th percentile and far above the €3,632 median. It’s not a bargain by the numbers, so the price needs to be justified by exceptional cosmetic condition, known servicing, or a particularly desirable provenance.
That said, this is a respected high-power Jadis design with the brand’s usual strengths: scale, warmth, color, and a very authoritative, spacious presentation when properly set up. If it’s genuinely clean and fully healthy, the upside is owning a rare, statement-level valve power amp. At this level, I’d want strong proof of recent maintenance, matched output tubes, and a careful check of transformer health before buying.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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.
