Job 250 monos amps: absolutely wonderful ...

Yes Joe, they should be.
I have a nuforce STA200 which is basically based on 225 - very vibrant sound, full of drive, very clean but never harsh or edgy or lean
However I cannot say it's a mellow and warm one, so I guess paring is still important.

Here is their response, doesn't look good from the sound of the email for the mono's to return. Bummer:

Dear Sir,


yes we just stopped producing it at the end of 2017 and we are delivering the last orders currently.


Thanks.


Best Regards.

Hi,


Did you all stop making the 250 mono’s?


Thanks,
 
Bad news.

The 225 will NOT be made bridgable and the 250 is definitely discountinued due to poor demand.
The last of the 250s are sold and will be shipped this week.

A classic gone forever!
 
Wow ... That really sucks!

I was pondering on a plan for a couple of 250s down the road.
Gone too soon. Definitely one of those rare audio unicorns.
 
Maybe I missed it, but did anyone ever compare the Jobs to the Benchmark AHB2's?

I was considering the Jobs, but went with a Benchmark because I wanted a neutral amp with balanced inputs. But I always wondered how the two compared? Based on reports, they would seem to sound similar.
 
Its been 3 years since the last post, but I also would be curious to read impressions of anyone who s done such a comparo: Job 250 mono vs Telos 280, or Telos 350 & 360 monos as they all of these use the same variation of a Telos circuit . Hope to get a reply :happy:
 
I still have, use and love my Job 250 monos. I still use my Job integrated. Both are wonderfully open, lots of 3D, great vocals, quiet, air/space around voices and instruments and extremely articulate.

I’ve never compared to Goldmund in the same system but have heard Goldmund. I’d love to go up the ladder to Goldmund but jeez, they are expensive. My Job integrated was $1700. The Goldmund version is $10K. Sure I’d love new Goldmund integrated (I forgot the model) but it’s $30K retail.

I love the Goldmund sound but wish my pockets were deeper.
