    Job INTegrated amp: An amazing piece that I absolutely still love ....

    I've been swapping gear around, like usual. This morning I put my Job INTegrated back on my Strads. I just love that piece.

    I use a modified Wyred 4 Sound Sonos to feed the digital RCA spdif input. It took a bit to open up and relax after being on the sidelines for a while, but man oh man, I would not feel the least bit deprived to use this as my only stereo amp. I love it that much. It puts many pieces to shame.

    I still want the Job 250 monos and maybe as a birthday or Christmas present to myself, I'll finally order a pair and get it out of my system.

    Proper speaker matching is crucial with this amp, but once you find the right speaker (preferable on the warmer side of neutral, just like the Sonus faber) - it is one hell of an amp. Relly hard to beat.

    Thank you Adam. Absolutely. It's great on my JBL's too. I just can't believe, for $1699 delivered, how well it performs.

    Joe, I was beginning to think you were off your rocker with the NERD, I mean, Nord amp love, but with the JOB amp and integrated you've been spot on.

    On the right speakers, Nord can be great too. System matching is key.

    Joe, what preamps do you think a good match for the Job mono's? Perhaps tubes like a CJ or Linear Tube Audio Microzotl?

    Re: Job INTegrated amp: An amazing piece that I absolutely still love ....

    I'd try and look for something with 10-12 dB gain max or less. The LTA might be great, CJ I think is way too high in gain (my GAT was great but way too noisy with the Job stereo amp). Primaluna or it's sister make should be great too as well as the STP-SE or other passive.

    Jack may have some opinions on what works. The Job monos have XLR inputs too, but I think they are just for convenience.

    Job's own preamp could be good too, but I generally love a little tube flavor.

    Re: Job INTegrated amp: An amazing piece that I absolutely still love ....

    Without using the Rothwell Attenuators, the only two units I tried that were a match with the Job were the STP-SE and the Nuprime DAC-10's preamp. The Modwright is 12 db and even it has very little range on the volume control in addition to the requirement for "dead silent" tubes. Same was true of three other tube preamps. I have had no negative effects from using the Rothwell's nor have any of the reviewers in Europe that tested them so with them you can probably go up to about 15 db gain. According to JA's measurements of the BHK preamp the gain balanced input to balance output was 9.8 db and SE input to SE output was 3.7 db. I would guess that means it should work too at least SE as the Job preamp is 3 db gain. As the BHK's volume control works in half db steps like the W4S it would also be easier to adjust with overshoot.

    I forgot about the PS Audio BHK, I just got one, but don't have the Job stereo (or monos) to try it on. My Job INTegrated does not have any bypass function. That should be pretty awesome. It's a great preamp.

    I used VAC, Pass and Classe CP800 with the JOB amp. All were excellent. I still remember how good the JOB amp was with the Raidho D3's. The small amp, small transformer didn't produce earth shattering bass, which was great for the Raidho's. Great sound too. Really sweet. Don't forget the "sweet power cord", it really did sound sweet.

    Joe,

    I have to thank you for the recommendation on the Job INT.
    It has been the most amazing purchase I have ever made in audio.

    In the last few months I have been using a Belden 8402 IC between the Job INT and my Lampizator Amber DAC. Works beautifully and has brought some tube love back into the chain.

    p.s. At Munich I walked over to the Goldmund booth and thanked Michel Reverchon for the Job INT.
    I actually told him it was a true gift to the audio community.

    Thank you so much for the kind words. I absolutely loved my Job 225 stereo and I think the Job INTegrated is even better.

    I'll have to try the Belden 8402 RCA cables, I do use 8402 XLR interconnects and really like them.

    Joe, did you say you ordered the 250 monos ? I would be interested to know what you think of the synergy with the BHK preamp. Strange, I looked at their website and they charge CA tax

    No, not yet, but very tempted. Depending on what happens after this summer and fall, I may order a pair before the end of the year. I'm trying to figure out what to keep and what to get rid of equipment-wise. I have a lot now and there's an amp or two I'm itching to try on my Strads first.

    Hello guys,

    I really like this post and thanks for that!
    I have a pair of DIY loudspeakers and would like to get the best out of it with my Job INTegrated. I live in France so it is impossible to get the Job Power Cord.... What power cord would you recommend on that amp?

    @Joeinid : The JBL Studio 590 should sound excellent with the Job, shouldn't it?

    I would love one. I love my Job INTegrated on my Avantgarde and would hope the more modern Telos 7 sounds better.


    I need to send in my Job INTegrated for repair. I’m in the middle of an RMA now and hopefully I’ll be able to send it in to Goldmund soon.

    What happened to your INT Joe?
    What kind of service is available for Job gear owners nowadays?

    Hi Nikhil,

    I’m experiencing light popping noises through my speakers when the music is quiet and more recently, some audible distortion through the speakers too. I’ve never overdriven it and rotated along with my other gear so it’s not like it’s been used constantly.

    I love the way it sounds on my Avantgarde.

    I hope they let me send it in soon. Looks like it might be going back to Switzerland. Ugh.

    At $11.500 the price is different though!
    Amazing what a value Job was and how much they charge for Goldmund. It was my understanding that back in the day the Job were literally manufactured side by side with the Goldmund. I read a review once where the gentleman reported that he was in the factory and saw Job and Goldmund units side by side on the assembly bench.

    I really liked the Job 225 that I owned on two different occasions. Good solid amplifiers!

    You’ve discovered my master plan. OMG that would be awesome. I have a preliminary estimate of $500 to repair. I don’t know if that’s a hard number. I have some free time in the next day or so and plan on shipping tomorrow or at least Thursday if at all possible.

    I’m seriously looking forward to getting it back in my system. I truly miss it.

    Joe

    If they just swapped out the board for the Mk II one that took the Analog inputs out of the D/A conversion chain that would be a good start plus find out if the DAC module is failing

    Yes, I hope I’ll get full disclosure on what is going on. That would be my goal Jack.

    add another zero to your $500 and you may be close Joe, I dare you to ask them how much for the Goldmund upgrade

    Ha!

    Don’t think I didn’t try. They feigned ignorance about me being able to get the Telos 7 through them. I don’t know if that was true but it was worth a try.

    If you're on a budget and like Goldmund influenced equipment check out the NuForce STA200. I'm using one in my office system and it's quite good especially for the scratch.. :-)

    OMG! It’s a wonderful amp and for $500 from Audio Advisor, an awesome deal. Other than excessive gain, I love it too.

    I’m thinking that maybe it’s not quite Goldmund that it went to or that I was conversing with about my Job. It went to the following address:

    They do not look to be the same address as Joe sent it to though. Different postal codes. I am thinking maybe they had you send it to an outside service center, the service center would not handle or get involved with trade up.

    I might suggest contacting Goldmund directly and ask about trading it in .
