Hello all, I am new to this forum and thought I should tell some people about this fantastic equipment!!!!!!. I recently bought a 99c power amp and a cd player. I have never seen stuff packed this well and built like this. I originally heard about the name JUNGSON from there integrated 88D, SO AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS . I talked to the Sekei company. and Andrew was very informative and gave me a 15 day money back guarantee, so I took the chance and I just can't believe how great this amp and cd player is!!!! It not only sounds great but is stunningly built. The amp is 80 watts of pure class A joy, it has weight and just brings the music to life!!!!. Anyway sorry about the rant, but if anybody is looking for some new equipment , at a BARGAIN PRICE, you owe it to yourself to check this stuff out. I can almost guarantee you , you will be thanking me. sincerely, Scott

Yes I agree. The Jungson integrated and amps are great and so affordable. I have the 88D integrated, the smoothest SS amp or integrated I have ever heard. The prices will go up because Jungson now has a US distributor, Jason Scott, I believe.

I own the Jungson JA-50 Monoblock amps, they are the best amps I have inserted into my system. At retail of $2900.00 they are a steal. I have compaired these amps to Bryston 7bsst, Monarchy Deluxe 100, GamuT M250, Channel Islands D-100 to name a few and they simply were the best. As you state they are built like a tank and drop dead beautiful to look at. A very conservative 80 watts per channel. These amps put out power that will drive any speakers you throw at them without breakin a sweat. They throw a HUGE soundstage with deep tight botton end with silky smooth mids and highs. I doubt threre are better mono's for $2900.00 a pair.

I just wanted to add my personal opinion on Jungson gear. In two systems (out of 3 in total), I currently run Jungson amps. JA-88D in one and JA-100 monoblocks in the other. The sound is FANTASTIC - tight, deep bass, with huge soundstage. I dealt with Andrew at Sekei.com (very helpful fellow).

How much do the 100's go for??

I think it was $2K per monoblock - I can't remember exactly as it was about 2 years ago I purchased them from Andy.

Australian Hi-Fi did the first english review of Jungson gear back in 2002 and since then only Bound for Sound has taken a look at the integrated. Many publications and internet review sites seem to be asleep at the wheel when it comes to this brand, so I hope the new distributor can get them some exposure.

It may be just a rumour, but apparently the class A Jungson JA-100/JA-200 monoblocks are copies of the Forsell statement amps. A few years back Forsell was the flavour of the month in the high end and they sold for 20-30k.

Does anyone know if the the other class a unit lower than the JD100 (50, etc) use global feedback? I like that the 100's don't, but it doesn't say anything about feedback on the others.
