The new JOB INTegrated Amp is coming !
Does anyone know when they plan on shipping?
The latest addition to the JOB amplifiers will be out soon : The JOB INTegrated. It will provide the latest circuit of power amp equivalent to a JOB 225 and add for very little money a totally new preamp section providing all the latest technology demanded by audiophiles : USB input with DSD compatibility, High resolution D/A circuit (up to 384) and extremely transparent Analogue input. Extending further the JOB advantage, you now have the extraordinary JOB sound quality associated with latest technology developments required by the audiophile community.

Price is $1699, so really super. I dont see much need for the 225 stereo amp in this case. This is Dac?integrated amp!
I will ask about this next week and maybe even snag a demo unit if possible.
Edit:
JOB Electronics Hi James, specifications are not available yet. I do not expect them before end September. Thanks for your patience

Thank you Norman !
Please tell them to put me on the list. I am buying one before I order the Job monos :D .
Re: The new JOB INTegrated Amp is coming !
Hmmm
They are adding a preamp, DAC, USB etc etc for the same price as the 225 and people think it will sound better than a 225 with a decent pre amp.
I don't think so - compromises will have to be made, including the amp section.
Re: The new JOB INTegrated Amp is coming !
The amp section is a complete circuit board, so you cant compromise there. Perhaps if they have share the power supply, that could be sub-optimal?
Who said they think it will sound better? Equal is the best anyone could reasonably expect the result to be. They also make a preamp, so for double the cost you are free to buy a 225 plus Pre2 combo.
Frankly, nothing will surprise me coming from Job, given that I suspect they use excess components from the Goldmund regular production runs. They likely have to buy these components in batches of say 1,000 and if they only have Goldmund demand for 700 pieces, they can dump the left overs or put them into Job gear as loss leaders, and give the average Joe a taste of Goldmund on the cheap.
Re: The new JOB INTegrated Amp is coming !
sounds like a winner to me and affordable. I have not heard the Job, but when it comes to SS amplification, it is hard to beat ultra high bandwidth designs (if you believe it can potentially correct for timing errors....which I believe it could). I used to own an amp designed by Dale Pitcher (who acknowledges Golmund as the Granddaddy of many a technologic innovation) that was very high bandwidth and it was superb.

I am on the list for one, could be real fun!
