Jadis musical value?


If you've heard or owned Jadis amplifiers, I would like your opinion on their performance value. When I see equipment this jewel-like, I tend to question just how much of the manufacturing/design budget was apportioned to performance and how much to aesthetics. Also and more specifically, I have some interest in the Jadis integrateds that come up for resale on Audiogon. Are they recommendable based on their performance alone? Thank you.

Missioncoonery, Just for clarity, does your assessment apply only to the Orchestra or to all Jadis integrateds? In the later case, is it that they don't make the grade sonically or are there reliability issues? Can you offer some specific concerns?
Missioncoonery, thanks for the advice and as Phaelon, I would appreciate if you could share further insight. I did read that the Jadis had QC issues with their amps before but read somewhere those had been resolved. Not sure how true it is but nonetheless would appreciate your input.

Thanks!
I have a Jadis Orchestra Reference integrated and have had no reliability problems. I am using Genelex Gold Lion 88 re issues for output tubes and I am enjoying beautiful music.

I had JOR, DPMC and CD3 for couple of years that I had bought used. Zero problems and yes indeed they deliver good musical value.
