I've been listening to both of these superb amplifiers over the last few days. I heard the Jota yesterday at Art Audio's demo facility, when I took the [i]Nonsuch 4[/i]s and [i]Little Awesome[/i]s up for a meeting with Tom Willis. The Jota is a single ended triode design which was fitted with 52BX valves, giving 20W. I only had a few hours listening but my first impression was that it was very pure sounding with a slight tendency towards sweetness in the sound but very, very nice for all that. I look forward to giving it a more extended trial. The BP S20 is a 300B push-pull design with two of BP's separate power supplies. It also gives out 20W and drove the [i]Nonsuch 4[/i]s at the Heathrow show last weekend. Since then, I've had the chance to listen to it for a few days in my own system (Gary of BP's on holiday :D ). I'm very impressed indeed - it's fast, neutral, crystal clear and quiet, with a superb soundstage. I'm loving it - all the old vinyl has come out in its honour. I was also fortunate enough to get given some speaker cable to try on the [i]Little Awesome[/i] bass speakers for a few days. Was it 40% of members who will find this hard to believe? The difference in bass compared to the bass I was getting with my original copper cable is enormous. The bass is much tighter and that allows the tune to emerge from the grunge. Altogether, my music and I are having a good time these days. :MILD: . Of course the BP has to go back in a day or so. They'll have to prise the cable off me though. :WMarrives
